    Ep 26: Leaving Comfort Zones and Embracing Risks

    Taking risks is part of the journey, but it’s the trust from your clients that makes it worthwhile. When Cam and his team moved beyond their comfort zone and took on a new challenge, it wasn’t easy. But what truly made the difference was the clients who backed them. It’s one thing to step into the unknown, but when people believe in you and your vision, that’s when the real growth happens. #Leadership #ClientTrust #RiskTaking #Entrepreneurship #GlenTaylor

It wasn’t just about fitness, it was about creating a movement. Fitness Cartel became the perfect fit to represent that vision. You need to hear the full story of how the name Fitness Cartel came to life.

We discuss the challenges of motherhood, business ownership, mental health, and the long-term risks when mums are not trained safely.
