In this episode, Miles sits down with Ali Turpie, founder of Calm + Chaos, on-site at his gym in West Byfleet.
Ali’s story is unlike most. After losing his father at a young age and later suffering a major stroke that left him unable to speak, fitness became the foundation for his recovery. That journey led to the creation of Calm + Chaos - a brand built around the balance of calm and chaos, combining small group personal training with recovery-focused offerings like pilates and sound baths.
They dive into the full journey of building the gym, from training clients in a garage to opening a 2,500 sq ft facility, including the challenges that come with it:
Ali also shares what day-to-day life really looks like in the early stages of running a gym, the importance of training for maintaining performance and why staying true to who you want to help is one of the most powerful advantages you can have.
This is a raw, honest conversation about resilience, identity and building something meaningful from the ground up.
If you’re opening a gym - or in the early stages of one - this episode will give you a real look at what it actually takes.
