As I begin my 54th trip around the sun, I figure what better way to do it than with some exciting news...

I have completed the manuscript to my first solo book - "Reclaiming My Authentic Self: A Journey from Fear to Freedom"

And what better time to reveal it than this week of all weeks, when arguably the most contentious and historic presidential election took place.

Trust me, there's a connection between the two. You'll just need to sit back, relax and - ENJOY - the show to find out what it is...

You've been in a groove with your health and fitness routine for months. It seems like nothing can get in your way.

Until you're on your way out of town. Then one of two things can happen - either allow your health and wellness to fall by the wayside.

Or you can map out a plan to keep you on top of your game while you're out of town - because Fitness Is Our Business.

The answer should be obvious. But if it's not (and even if it is), sit back, relax and...

ENJOY THE SHOW!

We know that Fitness Is Our Business...

But we don't all handle our business at the same time of day. Some of us tackle our health and fitness routine after a long day's work - and that means tackling similar challenges and obstacles that early risers face.

Building a proper mindset, setting realistic goals and maintaining consistency, among other factors, are keys to success. And of course, so is doing the work.

For now, all you need to do is sit back, relax and...

ENJOY THE SHOW!

I posed the question, "Are You Ready to Change," in the first episode of the show on Oct. 10, 2021. It was meant for my audience, but it applied to me too - and still applies to me all this time later.

Because even though the show has changed over time, from Fit Family Foundations to the Healthy Lives, Healthy Business Podcast. But I have changed so much more.

In honor of this special milestone, I fondly recall how much I have changed along the way.

So sit back, relax and ENJOY the show - and then do me a solid and subscribe to the show, so more people have the opportunity to learn that...

Fitness Is Our Business.

Episode #99 is also a first for this nearly 3-year-old show - as in my first repeat guest - and it was only fitting that it was Tomas Keenan.

I admire and respect Tomas for many reasons - namely who he is, what he stands for personally and professionally, and a riveting personal story that rose from humble beginnings to build a seven-figure, and now helps other entrepreneurs do the same.

It's been nearly 2 years since he was first on the show, so it was time to have him back because there's much more we can learn from him.

So sit back, relax - LEARN - and of course,

ENJOY!

Having a powerful morning routine is vital - and that routine begins before we awaken in the morning.

The more we can plan ahead for how we start our day...

The better opportunity we have to conquer the day.

So sit back, relax - and of course, enjoy - this episode at any time of the day or night. It will open your eyes.

After the historic storm that has devastated southeastern North Carolina this week, it's tough to ignore the importance of insurance in our families' lives.

Johnny Foust, a genuinely God-fearing, family first, and fitness-minded insurance agent with Farm Bureau Mutual Insurance Company here in Wilmington knows how to have those tough conversations to make his clients feel right at home in what can be uncomfortable situations.

He offers a selfless mentality that comes from spending most of his working life in the hospitality industry, and offers unmatched customer service and passion to protect as many families as humanly possible - because he knows how much these families count on him.

If insurance weighs on your mind, or even if you don't give it a second thought, this is an episode you don't want to miss.

So sit back, relax and of course...

ENJOY!

In today’s “Live to Work, Not Work to Live” society, it’s easy to feel selfish about taking the time to take care of ourselves. We’re all pulled in many directions, it can often feel like taking time for ourselves means we're letting others down or neglecting important responsibilities.

That needs to change...starting with not feeling guilty for sitting back, relaxing and enjoying the latest episode of the show because...

Fitness Is Our Business.

"Fitness Is Our Business" isn't simply a mantra. It's the foundation on which Fernandes Fit was built.

To be at our best in the business world, we have to be at our best personally. We have to take care of ourselves...and that takes some of the hardest work we will ever do.

For now, though - sit back, relax and...

ENJOY THE SHOW!

Call Karl Elken a geek. He wears that moniker with pride.

Oh, and that Chief Sales Geek, as in Chief Sales Geek for the Carolinas and Georgia. He has forgotten more about sales in his 30-year career than many people know, and he uses that knowledge to change the world views sales.

And that's not all you need to know about Karl.

So sit back, relax and of course...

ENJOY!
