The King Within: Modern Masculinity and the Sovereign Man 005: Readying Your Life & Business for the Unpredictable with Scott Howell
After today’s episode, you'll walk away with a greater understanding of how to feel more empowered as a protector in life, all that can be accomplished by following your heart’s compass, and the real value of giving back.
Scott Howell is my friend and mentor, CEO and founder of Red Dot Fitness, and host of the Iron Sights Podcast. With over 25 years of experience, his competence and perseverance as a gym owner has inspired me and many others as he's been a guiding light in the health and fitness space. Through his experience and the challenges he has faced, Scott brings a holistic look into what he's done to ready himself, his facility, and his family for any obstacle that may present itself.
Scott and I discuss:
- Identifying the metrics of “winning”
- What it costs to build out a fitness facility
- Effectively merging business and romantic partnership
- Learning the art of podcasting
- Normalizing preparedness
- Tactical tips for situational awareness
