Becoming a successful entrepreneur and starting a business is hard. Growing your business into an empire is even more challenging. The dream of being an entrepreneur can quickly come tumbling down when you're facing a lack of funding, lack of knowledge, lack of resources, the lack of customers, a limiting belief, and a whole host of other barriers. The truth is, it's going to take a significant more from you than what you think to break through the inevitable glass ceiling.

In todays' Fitness Franchise Podcast, Bryce Henson speaks with Erin Alejandrino, the Vice President of Truelean, a Certified Fitness Coach, Executive Director of Fit Body Boot Camp, and Co-founder of the Modern Day Knight Project.

Erin shares his evolution of becoming an entrepreneur and the hard lessons he's endured over the years. He explains the importance of personal development, how following a model of success is critical, overcoming your toxic head trash, why passion has to fuel your fire, and so much more. "You never really know what you're capable of until you get thrown into the deep end."
