Burnout doesn't always look like falling apart. Sometimes it looks like keeping up. In this episode of The Fitness of Business , I'm joined by pharmacist, executive wellbeing strategist, and leadership consultant Dr. Jamie Hardy to talk about something too many entrepreneurs and leaders ignore until their bodies force the conversation. After what she believed was a heart attack sent her to the eme...

Why Your Business Doesn't Need Everything at Once   If you're building a business with a huge vision, this episode is for you. It's easy to become overwhelmed when your goals include multiple offers, locations, revenue streams, and big dreams. But trying to build everything at once is often the fastest path to burnout—not sustainable growth. Book a free chat with me here: https://calendly.com/lbco...

You're Doing Too Many Things (And It's Slowing You Down)  As entrepreneurs, it's easy to believe that growth comes from doing more. More platforms. More tools. More content. More marketing.

Stop Guessing: The 7 Numbers Every Business Owner Should Track | with Lauren Schoenfeld (Part 2) Do you make business decisions based on facts—or feelings? Many entrepreneurs avoid their numbers because they feel overwhelmed, intimidated, or unsure what they're even looking at. But when you stop measuring what matters, it's easy to make decisions from stress instead of strategy. In this episode of...

Build Your Business With Intention, Not Trends | with Brittany Woitas As entrepreneurs, it's easy to mistake motion for progress. A new platform. A new marketing tactic. A new content format. A new tool everyone says you need. Before long, you're working harder than ever—but feeling like you're getting nowhere. In this episode, I share a powerful clip from my conversation with Brittany Woitas, fou...

Most business owners think they have a numbers problem. But often, they actually have a mindset problem. In this episode, I sit down with Lauren Schoenfeld, founder and CEO of Active Core Consulting, to talk about the hidden beliefs that shape how entrepreneurs think about money, success, pricing, growth, and self-worth. We explore why so many business owners avoid looking at their financials, how...

Get Out of Your Own Way: The Leadership Shift Every Business Owner Must Make At some point, every coach has to stop coaching. Not forever—but long enough to let the athlete do the work. The same is true in business. As entrepreneurs, we spend years building systems, training employees, creating processes, and solving problems. Then, when it's time to trust those systems, we jump right back in and...

Redefining What Business Success Really Means  We’ve been taught to measure success in business the same way we measure strength in the gym — bigger, heavier, more. More revenue. More clients. More growth. But what happens when the numbers go up and your quality of life goes down? In this episode, I’m challenging the idea that success is only valid if your business keeps scaling. Because bigger is...

Have you ever felt like you're doing everything you're supposed to do to grow your business—posting consistently, networking, showing up online—and yet nothing seems to translate into paying clients? You're not alone. In this episode, I sit down with Candice Smith, founder of French Press PR and creator of the VizDev Framework, to talk about the difference between being visible and being valuable....

Stop Borrowing Someone Else’s Brand: Build What’s Actually Yours It’s easy to look at what other businesses are doing and assume that’s the blueprint for success. The highlight reels. The aesthetics. The “viral” content strategies. But just because something looks successful doesn’t mean it’s aligned with your business. In this episode, I’m talking about what happens when entrepreneurs start copyi...

Schedule CEO Time: Stop Reacting & Start Leading Your Business   Most entrepreneurs don’t struggle because they aren’t working hard enough. They struggle because they never stop long enough to lead. It’s easy to spend your entire week answering emails, serving clients, solving problems, and reacting to whatever feels urgent. But staying busy is not the same as building a business with intentio...

When I owned my CrossFit gym, I spent a lot of time looking around at what other gyms were posting online. The ripped abs. The dramatic workouts. The chalk clouds. The competition photos. That just wasn’t us. Our gym was built around community, relationships, and the feeling people had when they walked through the door. But those things are harder to capture in a perfectly curated Instagram post....

A lot of business owners avoid looking at their numbers for the same reason people avoid stepping on a scale. Not because they hate data. Because they’ve attached meaning to it. “If revenue is down, I’m failing.” “If expenses are up, I’m doing something wrong.” “If I really look closely, I’m afraid of what I’ll find.” But your numbers are not a report card. In this episode, I talk about the emotio...

Recovery Is a Business Strategy, Not a Reward We’ve built an entire culture around hustle and productivity, but very few people talk about what constant grinding actually costs. In this episode, I share a powerful insight from my conversation with Paul Postema about recovery, burnout, and the importance of intentional rest — not as something you earn after exhaustion, but as a strategy for sustain...

Systems, Boundaries, and Why Organization Isn’t About Perfection, with Janice Rostron  Ever feel busy all day but somehow still behind? In this episode of The Fitness of Business , I sit down with professional organizer and productivity expert Janice Rostron to talk about the real relationship between clutter, overwhelm, boundaries, and sustainable business growth.

We know busy and productive are not the same thing, but so many business owners spend years confusing the two. In this episode, I share a powerful insight from my conversation with Kate Boyle about boundaries, decision-making, and learning to pause before saying yes to every opportunity. Because not every collaboration, meeting, or opportunity is actually moving your business forward. Sometimes it...

You can be incredible at what you do and still stay invisible. This week, I’m sharing a powerful takeaway from my conversation with Ben Speich: your work doesn’t speak for itself. Because while we’d love to believe that being great at our craft is enough, the truth is that visibility matters. The most talented coach, trainer, or business owner isn’t always the one getting noticed. In this episode,...

You can work hard, eat “healthy,” squeeze in workouts, and still feel exhausted. So what happens when what used to work… suddenly doesn’t? This week I’m joined by registered dietitian nutritionist Jen Scheinman to unpack the overwhelm of modern wellness: conflicting advice, burnout, aging, hormones, energy crashes, and the pressure to optimize everything. We talk about: Why “healthy” can look diff...

In this episode, I talk about one of the most expensive mistakes I see in business: trying to do everything yourself in the name of “saving money.” It feels responsible. It feels scrappy. But underneath it’s often fear dressed up as discipline. I share a conversation I had with Amber Briggle, where we unpacked how operating from scarcity kept her stuck in the early stages of growth longer than nec...

You don’t build strength by standing next to people in the gym. And you don’t build a business community by never asking for help. Finding your people is one thing. Actually leaning on them? That’s harder. In this episode of Tread Talk, I’m talking about why community matters in entrepreneurship — and why so many business owners struggle to truly rely on the people around them. We join networking...
