In this episode Dr. Sean and Chase discuss the use of psychedelic plant medicine, the power of networking, and the importance of family and friends as a positive influence. 

Living a life of wellness has always been a part of Chase's values - since growing up eating fresh food from his grandparents' garden, playing baseball throughout school and enjoying time in the mountains surrounding his family's southwest VA home. After six years of active duty, Chase was medically discharged from the military due a string of injuries that ultimately required him to have bilateral reconstructive hip surgeries. After learning how to walk again, twice, exercise as medicine and healthy lifestyle modifications became his passion.

This podcast episode was inspired by an instagram follower of Larry's who reached out saying he was excited to open a CrossFit gym in a month. 

Larry asked Dr. Sean for help navigating this conversation, and instead of doing it in private, Sean thought the best thing to do was to have the conversation and record it for your benefit too.

Owning any business is hard, owning a gym business is perhaps the hardest. Believe it or not, most micro gyms never achieve profitability, and of those who do, many lose inspiration in their own business because of the tactics they needed to use to get there. 

In this podcast Dr. Sean and Larry break down why gyms so often fail and what there is to be done about it.
