In this podcast I sit down with Logan Cole.  Please allow me to apologise for the cursing in this podcast - both Logan and I were once apprentice tradespeople and I didn't even notice how frequent the swearing was in this conversation until I re-listened to it.

That said, I do think there were plenty of gems in this podcast so I hope you listeners get some value from it.

Logan Cole is a fitness gear selling, strength & conditioning coaching, qualified electrician with a great perspective.

I really enjoyed this conversation and in an attempt to improve what I do, I've put together this episode guide for you all below:
