Today, we’re going to be diving deep and talking about some really cool topics with JR Burgess. If you’ve never heard of JR, he is the CEO of Rejuv Medical and MedFit, which is based out of Minnesota. They’ve got a brick-and-mortar facility as well as an online presence.

JR is doing a bunch of innovative stuff with stem cells and prolotherapy types of healing modalities to help people who might have no other options. The really interesting thing about JR is that he was a professional rugby player for a long time and he has incorporated that athletic mindset—along with many other lessons from his journey—into his business.

If you’re an athlete or you work with athletes, I think this episode will really connect a lot of dots for you. There’s something about that athletic mindset that really becomes a part of you for life, and we’re going to talk about the benefits of that and how to really utilize that in your business and in your life. Even I had a few big “a-ha” moments in this episode, so I’d highly recommend tuning in and listening to what JR has to say.

In this episode, JR and I discuss: 

The innovative components of JR’s practice.  Stories of drugs, alcohol and addiction.  The pros of hiring an athlete.  The journey from a 1,000 to 6,000 to 28,000 square foot facility.  Some common challenges with cash-based medicine.  Being an elite communicator.
