Ep. 027 - Fulfillment and Growth w/ Chase Chewning Apr 15, 2020

Show notes

At the moment, quarantine is weighing heavy on many of us and the urge to maybe shift into something you really want to do is digging at you more than ever. I truly believe that some of the things that we talk about in this short 1 hour window will strike a chord with you and give you just a little motivation to go and do what you really love. Chase speaks about how he got into podcasting, I shed light on some of my life's biggest turning points, and then the conversation takes a natural direction into what it means to really be fulfilled in life and your career. Because in the end, our time is the only thing we can not get back. How do you want to spend yours?

Ep. 026 Coronavirus, Lessons As Gym Owner, And Lots Of Laughs w/ Kenny Santucci Mar 25, 2020

Show notes

I actually created a mini show out of the intro and talked a lot about what's going on in the world at the moment for me, my gym, and my other businesses. I also dive into the good and the bad that the coronavirus has done for us all. From finding out who your best friends and employees really are, to visions of what you really want out life and your career. And while all of that is in the intro, we still have a whole show ahead of us to talk about with my good friend Kenny and his experience as a gym owner at CrossFit Solace in NYC. He's learned a ton, had some ups, some downs, and he's on to greener pastures from what he tells us in this interview for the first time since the split. There's SO many great vibes in this one, lot of great lessons to be learned, and as always... The laughs are always in there!

I also just created a new bodyweight only program on chalk online, called "bodywork" and it is taking the world by STORM! Use code: DEFENSE and get your first 2 weeks FREE.

Ep. 025 Hard Work Beats Talent Mar 17, 2020

Show notes

My story of couch surfing to a 7 figure business. I know this is a repeat episode (From my older podcast platform. It's new if you haven't been following me for a while), but I felt like it needed to be re-aired considering the time we are currently living in (I also added a damn good intro to kick it off).

We all need inspiring stories to keep us motivated and remind us of what is possible (Especially during times like this). Sometimes we settle with mediocre and forget what our original goals were. We forget what we were put on this earth to do. We get scared. We fail. We make excuses. We put ourselves in a place with limits. But what if... What if our soul has another plan the whole time? What if we don’t know what it is, but it keeps us awake at night? It reminds us that what we are doing is either right or wrong. It consumes our every movement, breathe, thought, and action. It is a gut feeling that never steers you in the wrong direction. It is... Everything you were meant to be and more. You just have to trust it.

This is my story. It always gets me emotional, so I’m sorry for the sad parts, but it’s enough to light you up for the week and it’s real shit that we can all accomplish.

Enjoy! I love you all.

Ep. 024 The CEO of Koia - Entrepreneurship, finding your passion, and much more! Mar 11, 2020

Show notes

Chris Hunter is one of the guys responsible for Four Loko, the formerly caffeinated alcoholic drink that was blamed for causing a few deaths in which the government then cracked down on, hard.

Four Loko is still on the market today -- and apparently selling well -- but Hunter, who was 25 when the brand was created, has since moved on to other businesses. His current pursuit is leading Koia, a plant-based protein beverage company. Quite the career pivot, right?

The beverage brand launched nationally in Whole Foods in 2016 and has since expanded to the shelves of more than 4,000 U.S. stores. It expects to have $25 million in sales for this year.

This podcast outlines all the steps it took him to get there.

Ep. 022 Never Plateau Again Feb 29, 2020

Show notes

The best athletes in the world have an intuitive feeling inside them that tells them when to go hard and when to hold back. A process that until today, has only been unique to that "freak" athlete. However, there has been a breakthrough in some training techniques by a man named Richard Diaz who has been stacking data to prove this new theory for nearly 40 years. When I heard about what he was doing, I had to meet him, help him with this very special project, and begin a new frontier of training for competitive athletes around the world.

Ep. 021 Passion Never Fails Feb 19, 2020

Show notes

Sonny has one hell of a story. From how he got into Olympic Lifting in the first place, to actually competing in the olympic games, to losing it all in an unfortunate incident, to be being back on top (if not even higher) with his extremely successful online business. This one is a roller coaster of emotions, serious tips for starting your own business, and as always, a damn good amount of hilarious banter. Get ready for one of my best podcasts of the year!

Ep. 020 Tips On Crushing Life Feb 12, 2020

Show notes

I recently was on a friends podcast talking about so many valuable topics that I thought it needed to be shared on my channel as well. We dive into my "heard around the world" 2012 CrossFit regionals incident, my online businesses, training and nutrition programs, and my newest venture which is a social media marketing agency. However, the biggest value comes into play in the moments where we share what we like to see in potential employees, what has worked best for us so far, and ways we plan to improve our already thriving businesses.

And well, life has changed quite a bit for me. I feel like I have so much to offer the world of health, fitness, and business these days that the only real way to get it all out there is to keep talking! In this episode I do a quick 2 year recap of what's been going on, the importance of networking, and I also touch on what I would do differently if I was to start all over again. A quick hint: Personal brand, Personal Studio, or Group Training Facilty? Cheers to a big future together and for all the things we can and will create... Together!
