Action Steps Podcast

Taking direct steps toward actualizing a dream is terrifying. You try to come to terms with the risk and unknown, but it’s there. How well we cope with that fear is what defines us to a big degree.

Rob Aguero-Hoffman (Lift Positive Fitness, Strength Faction Vet) and I open up on the overwhelming fear we felt in opening our businesses.

Knowing that I was not alone in my fear and that Rob was seeing the light on the other side of the terror had a massive impact on me. Listen to hear how he helped himself and yours truly to venture forward.

This one’s worth the listen in any field.

People keep asking if we’re back… yeah, I’m thinking we’re back!!!

The Coach Fury Podcast starts its third year with the return of Todd Bumgardner (Strength Faction, BSP Nova)!

Over the next few episodes you’ll learn what the hell I’ve been up to, why we the show went on a sudden hiatus and hear from some people who have a direct and immediate impact on me.

Whether you’re a trainer, coach, owner, or manager, it is so easy to get overrun by this business. Todd and I discuss how he helped me structure a professional and personal life balance on my own terms.

I wouldn’t be where I am without this fella.

Give it a listen.
