Ever feel like you're running your studio with pure grit, zero sleep, and no clear plan - just hoping it doesn’t all fall apart?

Indi knows the feeling. She built her Reformer Pilates studio from scratch at 22, made every mistake in the book, nearly walked away more times than she can count - and came out the other side building something even bigger than she imagined.

In this raw and unfiltered ep, Indi shares how she turned things around, scaled her revenue while stepping back from the day-to-day, and what it really looks like to move from overwhelmed studio owner to empowered CEO.

Here’s what we’re covering:

-Why the fear of untapped potential still drives Indi’s every move

-The biggest mindset shift she made to finally stop doing everything herself

-The 4-week intro offer strategy that tripled revenue (and killed off the time-wasters)

-How she finally stopped losing sleep over money (and what changed)

-The brutal truth about ClassPass -and why most studio owners are stuck wearing golden handcuffs

-Why she’s ditching packs for good (and what she’s doing instead)

-How Indi grew every week, even while getting married in another country

-The moment she realised leadership was her next frontier - and how she's rising to it

-Her mission to franchise Core Culture - and help other instructors skip the painful first 3 years

… and a whole lot more

Because the truth is, this guest didn’t have a clear vision, a big network, or a fancy business degree. He started as a shy, introverted trainer pouring beers just to make rent—and built himself into a 7-figure studio leader running multiple locations and launching new training systems.

In this raw and honest convo, we break down what it really takes to make the leap from trainer to CEO (and dominate your market in the process).

Here’s what we’re covering:

-Why he nearly didn’t step into business—and what finally flipped the switch

-How a Contiki trip epiphany triggered a complete career overhaul

-The truth about opening a studio during lockdown (and how he made it work)

-The mindset shift that took him from winging it to running it

-Why he stopped overthinking—and started backing himself

-The exact systems he used to go from stuck at 120 members to 230+

-How “The Underground” was born—and how he used dead space to build new revenue

-The team strategy that’s unlocked freedom and built loyalty for life

-The real reason he never burnt out (even when working 3 jobs)

If you still think AI is just a Google replacement, you're already falling behind.

-The exact way Geronimo is using AI to scale coaching, ad copy, and internal operations

-The new rules of trust: What the 7-11-4 principle means for your ads

-Why generic offers (like “5 classes for $55”) are dead—and what to do instead

-The only type of content converting on Meta and TikTok in 2025

-The real reason you’re still stuck at $40/day ad spend (and how to scale)

-The new path to purchase: Why organic and paid work together
