Interview Questions & Answers:
1) How did you start your business?
“I wanted to create an innovative approach to helping men get out of the rut we often fall into, to over come obstacles such as weight gain, fatigue, inactivity, etc - all the things that keep us from our full potential in life.”
2) What was one stand out thing you remember that at the time seemed like a great risk?
“The two biggest risks were: distracting me from my main primary care practice, and a lack of understanding of what I offer by those who needed it the most.

I am working on a more comprehensive membership program and would like to see that develop into something that can be replicated in other locations and other practices.”
5) How do you handle stress and pressure?
“I’m a drummer, so getting on my kit and hitting away always helps! I also run ride my bike with my wife or son, or play with our dog Chip (who frequently joins me at the office!). Honestly, I can get bored easily, so a bit of stress and pressure are not always a bad thing.”

“I’ve used the time to redo my website, reach out to more potential clients, and conduct many online consultations - ready to open soon!”
