What does it take to build a business that can evolve right alongside your life?

This week on Coffee Monday, Rae sits down with Lauren Anderson, owner & instructor of The Bar Method Fresno, to talk entrepreneurship, motherhood and staying relevant in an ever-changing fitness industry.

Lauren shares what it was like building a boutique fitness business, navigating the pandemic and continuing to innovate in an increasingly saturated market, including what’s next for The Bar Method with a new Pilates format and offerings for moms & babies.

They also get into the part of entrepreneurship that doesn't always make the highlight reel: raising two little boys while running a business, mom guilt, finding time to move your body in busy seasons, and learning that taking care of yourself doesn't have to come after everything else gets done.

Plus, Lauren shares how The Bar Method has grown into more than a workout, and why community may be one of the most important things women can give themselves.
