Description:

 

Today I am so excited to be joined by my friend, Yuri Elkaim! Yuri is a former pro athlete, New York Times bestselling author, sought-after business coach, a podcast host, and the founder of Healthpreneur. I have known Yuri for a number of years outside of all of his accomplishments in business, and what I really enjoy so much about him is his introspection, discipline, and ideas around how to grow a business.

 

If you want to grow your practice or business on your own terms, Yuri is someone you are going to want to listen to! This episode is all about biohacking for your brain when it comes to how you want to run your business. Yuri and I talk about how to transition your business to one that can thrive without you, how to balance running a business while maintaining a healthy lifestyle that works for you, the important role that discipline plays in a growing, profitable business, and how his newest program, “Strong 60,” is helping empower people to push past their comfort zone.

 

This is truly an all-encompassing Entrepology episode from health to business to mindset. I cannot wait for you all to hear Yuri Elkaim’s incredible insights!

BADASS FUEL — Fuel for Badass Women

Scientifically Supported Ingredients | Support, Not Replacement | Non-GMO

Two years ago, someone asked me what supplements I take to maintain my health, energy, and edge — and they were surprised that I only took four things consistently. For myself and my patients, there are four basics that support — at a foundational level — nearly every system in our bodies. In my quest for the highest quality ingredients and the easiest system for consistently incorporating supplementation into my routine, I formulated and manufactured my own line of foundational supplements. Trusted for myself and my patients, and under the guidance of your own healthcare provider, I’m excited to invite you to check out our foundational product line: Badass Basics. Learn more or order the products yourself by visiting BadassFuel.com!

Tweetables:

 

“The goal of business is to become replaceable. If you think you’re irreplaceable, you will never have a business; you will always have a job.” — Yuri Elkaim

 

“There’s a lot of value in building a personal brand — especially nowadays with ‘everyone’s an influencer.’ … The downside is that it becomes less of an ‘exit-able’ type of business.” — Yuri Elkaim

 

“I think you should build a business as if you were going to sell it — even if you didn’t want to sell it.” — Yuri Elkaim

 

“Something that all of us could do … better … is learning how to be calm in the chaos. … Learning how to get ourselves into that place of calm and just being okay with what is … and challenging that little voice inside our head that doesn’t support us [is key].” — Yuri Elkaim

 

“A lot of the [Strong 60] program is about allowing the winner in our minds — not the whiner — to direct more of our life, and to do things that are going to strengthen that as opposed to weakening us.” — Yuri Elkaim

“Call it discipline, call it persistence — call it whatever you want — I think it’s massively important.” — Yuri Elkaim
