The mission of Ripped Open is to rip open the conversations no one else is having — around training, coaching, business, leadership, and identity. This show is for the ones already doing the work — the athletes chasing something bigger than miles, the coaches tired of blending in, the high-performers who know they’re built for greatness. Each episode will leave you feeling fired up, called out (in the best way), and grounded in what really matters — not just how fast you move, but how boldly you lead. Let’s go deeper. Let’s get stronger. Let’s lead louder — together.

    How to Turn Your Best Clients Into Raving Fans Who Refer Everyone

    What if your best clients became your biggest source of referrals? What if they upgraded to higher-tier packages without you even asking?

In this episode, I'm showing you exactly how to do that: Why your long-term clients are your most valuable asset (and why you're ignoring them) How to create exclusive experiences that make clients feel special 5 specific ways to reward loyalty and turn clients into raving fans Your best clients deserve more than the same treatment as everyone else.

    How to Create a Client Experience That Keeps Them Renewing for Years

    For years, I was obsessed with getting new clients. I thought that was the game…get more people in the door, make more money. But my revenue was a rollercoaster. One month I'd hit 10K, the next month I'd drop to 4K.  The moment I shifted from chasing new leads to obsessing over client experience, everything changed. My monthly income doubled, my stress dropped, my clients started staying for 12+ months instead of just 3 months. And they became my biggest source of referrals! In this episode, I'm breaking down: The client who left after 3 months vs. the client who's been with me for 2+ years (and what made the difference)What most fitness coaches get completely wrong about client experience Why the first 48 hours of a client's experience determines whether they'll renew or leaveThe mindset shift from "How do I get more clients?" to "How do I make this so good they never leave?" If you're tired of the hamster wheel of constantly replacing clients, launching every month, and hustling just to maintain the same revenue…this episode will show you a better way. ⬇️ CONNECT WITH KARINA: FREE CHALLENGE - MONTHLY MONEY SPRINT: ⁠https://www.karinaripps.com/offers/hX2qfsvz/checkout Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/ripps_ontherun/⁠ Work With Karina: ⁠https://linktr.ee/ripps_ontherun

    Why Some Coaches Blow Up Fast (And You're Still Stuck)

    Why do some people launch their business and hit $10K months in a year, while others are still scraping by after years of hustling? After watching hundreds of entrepreneurs (and going through my own messy journey), I've identified six patterns that separate the people who get fast results from those who stay stuck. In this episode, we're ripping open: Why following the "right" plan isn't a guarantee of fast results (and the 70/30 rule that actually matters)How clear messaging and a simple offer can literally shorten your sales cycleWhy most people only implement 70% of what their coach tells them…and what's really holding them backHow your season of life impacts your pace (and why comparing yourself to others is setting you up for frustration)The unseen difference between people who bounce back in hours vs. those who spiral for weeksWhy belief and courage as "fear in motion" are the ultimate accelerators This is about being willing to look at where YOU'RE the bottleneck…and doing something about it. If you've ever wondered "why not me yet?”, this episode is for you. ⬇️ CONNECT WITH KARINA: Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/ripps_ontherun/⁠ Work With Karina: ⁠https://linktr.ee/ripps_ontherun

    What to Do When You're Posting But It's Not Selling

    You’re posting. You’re consistent. You might even be getting engagement. But people aren't flooding your DMs to work with you. In this episode, I’m walking you through the three specific gaps I see every single time a coach tells me, “I’m showing up but nothing is converting.” I also give you real, actionable things you can do immediately: how to audit your posts, how to simplify what you’re talking about THIS week, and the exact 3 actions that actually lead to making more money when done consistently. If you’re tired of posting and hoping, this episode will show you what’s missing, AND what to fix. ⬇️ CONNECT WITH KARINA: GRAB YOUR CUSTOM BUSINESS PLAN: https://www.karinaripps.com/offers/zt3yR4gz/checkout Instagram: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/ripps_ontherun/⁠⁠ Work With Karina: ⁠⁠https://msha.ke/rippsontherun⁠⁠

    How Consistent $10K Months Actually Happen

    Almost everyone says they want $10K months. Very few people actually build a business that can hold them without paid ads, a team, or endless 1:1s. In this episode, I’m breaking down what actually creates consistent $10K+ months...and it’s not mindset journaling, affirmations, or waiting to feel confident. I’m sharing: Why “thinking your way there” keeps most coaches stuckThe decisions that actually shifted my income (even when they felt uncomfortable)What the version of you making consistent $10K months does differently on a daily basisWhy confidence is a byproduct of action — not the prerequisiteAnd the one question I come back to whenever I feel stuck or hesitant to move This is for health & fitness coaches who are done dabbling, done overthinking, and ready to build a business that feels stable, intentional, and actually sustainable. ⬇️ CONNECT WITH KARINA: JOIN THE FREE MASTERCLASS TO 6-FIGURES: https://www.karinaripps.com/offers/2Zw9P5S8/checkout Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/ripps_ontherun/⁠⁠⁠ Work With Karina: ⁠⁠⁠https://msha.ke/rippsontherun⁠⁠

    Why I Stopped Planning My Business by the Year and Started Planning It by the Month

    In this episode, I break down why I stopped planning my business by the year and started planning it one month at a time — and how that single shift is what finally allowed me to build my highest 6-figure year yet, without defaulting to endless 1:1s or burning myself into the ground. We talk about:• why long-term planning can actually create MORE chaos• the moment I realized I had too many competing priorities• how choosing ONE monthly focus can bring clarity, momentum, and calm inside your business• why this approach works especially well for health & fitness coaches This isn’t about doing less because you don’t care.It’s about building on purpose instead of panicking every month. If your business feels noisy, scattered, or heavier than it needs to be — this episode is for you. ⬇️ CONNECT WITH KARINA: JOIN THE FREE MASTERCLASS: https://www.karinaripps.com/offers/2Zw9P5S8/checkout Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/ripps_ontherun/⁠⁠⁠ Work With Karina: ⁠⁠⁠https://msha.ke/rippsontherun⁠⁠
