This track is an interview Ezra Auperle that founder of Sixty Four Films. I think this is a very interesting interview as we discuss how Ezra set up his business, how he had to change the structure, make redundancies and how he later sold his service business. Additionally how to build good relationships with staff and why it is important even after they stop working for your company.

To give you some context, this interview was originally an Instagram Live so we jump straight into the conversation chatting about Ezra's European trip right before Covid kicks in. It quickly moves onto the business items Enjoy!

In this interview I speak with Luke McLeod about meditation and corporate wellness.

Jen Dugard launched Body Beyond Baby 12 years ago right after having her first child.

Her business originally launched as a 'Group Exercise with childcare' program but Jen has since sold her group exercise business and pivoted into the Fitness Professional Education space delivering her accreditation 'Safe Return to Exercise' course to fitness professionals, and turning the Body Beyond Baby brand into a website that connects mums with accredited fitness professionals.

The mummy market is a huge one but they are often not catered to correctly. This is a group who are learning how to keep another human alive, they are not getting enough sleep, they may not ben feeling like themselves. Jen saw a gap in the market and she delivered.

Today we will talk to Jen about how to deliver an amazing product, how to niche your audience and also how she also became a sought after speaker at the likes of FILEX

We also have a really good chat about life and reflections in general such as self-esteem and learnings from how you have been raised as kids and the like. I hope you get as much out of this interview as I did.

My microphone didn't work very well in this interview which was disappointing but it is still pretty easy to hear

Today we speak to Adala Bolto, the founder of ZADI Fitness. The ZADI concept was born due to Adala spotting a gap in the market to build a strong female-focused brand that was results and technology-driven but also created an experience for clients. Studios are designed with 'The millennial female experience' in mind. The studios are set up specifically for females in a nightclub fitout with strong vibe and atmosphere. ZADI workouts are all developed by Exercise Scientist Damien Kelly so they are female-specific and ZADI have partnered with TechnoGym to create bespoke technology to help in a consistent member experience which will support the rollout of more studios and a way for clients track their results and stay connected. Adala certainly did not have this mapped out for her future, but instead, she took the opportunities that came her way and has achieved success off the back of hard work, spotting a gap in the market and being inspired by her own results and wanting to help others. In this episode, Adala talks us through how she got into the fitness industry, what she learned as the franchisee, and why she decided to take the leap to create her own studios. https://www.zadi.com.au/
