Running a gym is a challenging endeavor that requires wearing countless hats, from marketing guru to financial planner. Yet, many gym owners, including myself, have found that the key to thriving lies in reaching out for help and building a supportive network. Today, I share my personal journey in the fitness industry, exploring lessons learned from the unfortunate closure of Stoney Creek's F45 gym. Contrary to popular belief, gym ownership isn’t a ticket to wealth but a commitment to helping others. Our gym has faced its share of hurdles, particularly during the pandemic, but has emerged stronger through collaboration and a willingness to seek guidance.

This episode also takes a personal turn as I recount a transformative experience at a Brotherhood of Fatherhood event in Montana. Here, I discovered the importance of vulnerability and the power of community in overcoming life’s obstacles. Whether you're managing a business, raising a family, or navigating complex relationships, remember that you don't have to face these challenges alone. Let this conversation serve as a reminder of the value of asking for help and connecting with the right people to propel you forward. Tune in to uncover insights that might just change your perspective on seeking support and building a network of allies.
