This was my first major podcast interview and I was soooo nervous.  But it was such a blast!  The hosts were incredible, well seasoned, and made it a lot of fun even with some minor tech issues.  On this show, I am sharing it all: 

- How our blind date lead to marriage and a business!
- The story behind our business.
- How to start a wellness business with your spouse. (If you are interested)
- What was wrong with their initial business model. And other mistakes along the way.
- How we scaled up our business from 30 to over 400 clients and growing!
- Shifting mindsets for business success.
- How we built our automation and marketing machines.
- What is franchising and what made us decide to go that route.
- Our first franchisee - Allison Hopkins you are awesome!
- How we put everything - I mean E V E R Y T H I N G into a SOP to let the business run without us.

You can watch the YouTube version here to see my awkward mug or listen anywhere you listen to podcasts.

I would love to continue the conversation - ask me anything!  I hope you enjoyed the show!

​This is Allison. Everyone say, ‘Hi Allison!’ Allison is the owner of our Brunswick location. Allison lives in Harpswell and enjoys kayaking with her husband, Eric and dog, Moe along all of the amazing coastline and islands that the area has to offer. Allison has been kayaking for many years and has struggled with lower back pain after spending time sitting in her kayak.
​
When shopping for a new kayak a few years ago she asked about a more supportive seat to help increase her comfort in the boat. She was told that she needed to build her core strength in order to support posture through her back, and not rely entirely upon the seat back for support.​

​One of the benefits of owning a personal training business is that you have access to a lot of training opportunities. Since opening Wilcox Wellness & Fitness in January of this year Allison has been participating in 3 training sessions per week just as we recommend to our clients as the sweet spot for great results.

This summer she has noticed an incredible improvement in how she feels in her kayak. She sits upright in her kayak with ease. Not only does her lower back no longer hurt, but her posture allows her to paddle more effectively with her mid-section and not incorrectly with her shoulders.

This results in greater power and speed when paddling so more distance can be covered without being fatigued - and that means that she’s able to beat Eric one of their favorite shoreside lobster roll stops. Allison is exploring greater distances this season and spending more time on the water with less discomfort.

If you want to have the core strength to get more enjoyment out of the activities that you LOVE, download our FREE guide to help you gain core strength.

Hope this is helpful to you in leveling up your ENJOYMENT of all of the activities that you LOVE.  Download our FREE Restore your Core Guide here!

Happy Training!

​I’ll never forget the moment I decided to go for it and join this business full time. Mike and I had been at a business conference in Orlando and he was laying it on thick. Our goal all along was for me to join the business once we had been in operation for 5 years… because you know… most businesses fail in the first 5 years.

If I was going to leave a corporate job that I loved - I wanted to know that it was the real deal. Don’t get me wrong - it was always my dream to own my own business - it was always my dream to make a positive impact. I just didn’t feel ready - 3 years in. I can see the street we were crossing, I can see the crosswalk, I can feel the breeze on my face and I remember the inflection in Mike’s voice with the words that changed my life…



“If not now, when?”



These words changed my life. Those words were the push I needed to shift my mindset and just go for it. I made the decision - we went for it - and I never looked back.

And now... I am living my dream life. Our business supports others in living their best life possible. Our business empowers other entrepreneurs to create a positive impact in their local community. And - I get to do it all with my very best friend from anywhere in the world. Like today - we are working, writing, and creating content out at our camp.

I am so very thankful that I took the leap when I did. It was probably the scariest and most difficult leap of my life - but nothing in life that is worth doing is easy.

Can you remember an exact moment from your past that completely changed the direction of your life? Or - is there a decision you are waiting to make? Can I push you to take the leap?

Let's chat!  Schedule a call here!

Lots of love,

Paige

It’s been said that fear of failure is fear of growth. It can be pretty painful when things don’t go as planned, but I am thankful for everything that I learn every single time I fail and I wouldn't trade that wisdom for the world. 

I heard on a podcast recently that most actors have to go to 100s of auditions to get one yes. That is 99 nos and a lot of people give up. UNLESS - you count every no as one no closer to that one yes. Can you imagine that mindset shift? You go to an audition, you pour your heart out and you get your 89th - ‘no, sorry we don’t think you are right for this role.’ Instead of being discouraged you are encouraged - SWEET - 89 nos - I am getting that much closer to the yes. And you are - because you learned something new in those 89 experiences. I am constantly getting nos - learning and failing - failing and learning and I know (or I hope) that is getting me this much closer to my big YES. I don’t even think of it as failing any more - just trying something new that didn’t work.

What’s the most important lesson you’ve learned by failing at something? I’d love if you joined the conversation on our Facebook Page.  Leave your insight in a comment here so we can all learn together!

Happy Training!

When Mike and I first opened Wilcox Wellness & Fitness, we worked intensively with our business advisor through CEI (supported by the Small Business Administration). Tom was amazing for us - 1 part business advisor, 2 parts marriage counselor, and 100% amazing.

When Allison was in the process of evaluating our franchise offering, we recommended that she find her local CEI office and get connected with an advisor.
​
Opening a new business is one of the scariest things anyone will ever do. It takes guts. It takes courage. And it takes a lot of faith.

Allison's advisor, Brad helped her evaluate the numbers so she could make the best decision possible. As Allison said in this article, “This is the scariest thing I’ve ever done. CEI’s help gave me confidence in the numbers. Every time I feel that entrepreneurial dilemma, I go back to the numbers,”

I (we) are so thankful for the incredible free resource of CEI that we have in this great state to support small business. We would not be here today without you. Thank you, CEI!

If anyone is interested in starting a new business and wants to hear more about our experience, please don't hesitate to reach out. There are so many great resources that are 100% invested in your success.

CEI wrote an incredible article on the Allison's story - click here to read on.

Much Love,

Paige
