Welcome back! This week we are joined by Alexa Cawley, Founder & CEO of Forever Friday Consulting and Host of The Friday Society podcast. Alexa shares how her career with companies like Lululemon and SoulCycle helped her see a gap when it came to marketing representation of small, boutique companies within the wellness industry. She ultimately decided to fill this gap with the launch of Forever Friday, where she takes on clients of all sizes, from business owners to fitness instructors - she helps her clients create content, navigate social media, etc., and arms then with the tools to get their business where they want it to be.

This episode goes deep into how we've seen the fitness industry change over the last 10 years, specifically in NYC, first gradually and then abruptly in 2020 with the COVID19 pandemic. Alexa shares her favorite and least favorite wellness trends, her favorite way to sweat, what made her successful in the launch of her company, and what she thinks are the most important qualities in a fitness instructor today. We also talk about the importance of how bigger fitness companies like Peloton treat their employees, and how dating has changed in NYC during the same time period we've seen the fitness industry change.
