In this week's episode, I got to sit down with a friend I deeply admire and look up to, Chris Brown.

Chris Brown helps business owners scale their businesses and guides them to the holistic and deep inner work they need.

Chris began working as a personal trainer back in 2009, together with a friend, he opened 26 boot camps across the UK. Later they separated and he went on to open his own gym, started mentoring other gym owners and found his passion for online sales, advertising and content creation. His core work currently is helping coaches, gym owners, business owners to grow and scale their company. In his work he’s fusing a lot of the stuff that he has been doing around healing, men's work and leadership training, with deeper things like intimacy and relationships. This perspective came to him when three years ago he separated from his wife which sent him on a journey of inner work with therapy, breathwork and trauma release. What he realized was that like a lot of business owners the desire to prove oneself in the world, to win, dominate and be successful in business is quite an empty pursuit.

What he is now bringing more of the holistic inner work and deep presence into business growth. As an entrepreneur he knows that sometimes he can spend 14 - 15 hours a day focused on the business and bring the leftovers home to family. Chris is now helping others spot that pattern and support them in their journeys.
