Description:

In his roughest years, Jeff Jucha was paying his gym's bills by maxing out his personal credit cards. He couldn't afford staff. And his bed was a hammock bolted to the gym office walls.

But when an almost life-threatening sickness showed him just how much he'd been worn down, he made some changes. The biggest one? He started paying himself first.

Since then, Jeff's become a profitable gym owner and now helps others do the same as a Certified Two-Brain Fitness Business mentor.  Tune in to hear his story and learn how you, too, can make your business profitable while prioritizing your own well-being.
