Our first ever in person podcast had to be with our long time friends and PT's: Dom Hills & Adam Beard.
We hear about how they both got started in the fitness industry and how we all came to work together.
Expect plenty of laughs and some great tips on knowing your worth and figuring out how much to charge as a coach as well as what to do when you lose a client.
It's always a good time catching up with these two and something I'm sure we'll do again in the future.
If you enjoyed the podcast, drop a like or a follow and it would really mean a lot.
