Tell us about yourself
Jess Estrada and I started our gym in October 2014. We began this journey because we believe we have a unique talent for building strong social groups and coaching people on how to move better, get stronger, and improve themselves both in and outside the gym.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Our biggest accomplishment as business owners is our impact on the people we have been fortunate enough to coach over the years.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
One of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner is keeping the big picture in mind. It can be easy to get lost in the weeds of the details, but the more we can maintain a sense of perspective, the better we are as owners and coaches.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Do your research, know your space.
- Have a mentor to help guide you.
- Be prepared to do whatever is necessary to succeed!
