Hello and welcome back to another episode of Trained for a Great Life. I want to talk about something that came to me that I think makes our gym outlaw feel like so much more than a gym. There's a few different things, and I think I've had realizations over the years of what they are, because it's not just the barbells and it's not the workouts and it's not even just the physical results. It's that you just get to show up and be yourself. Let me unpack it In so many areas of life, we wear labels, sometimes proudly and sometimes heavily.

Speaker 1: 0:42

Sometimes proudly and sometimes heavily. You're a manager, a parent, an entrepreneur, the guy that everyone goes to with the answers, or the woman who's expected to always have it together. But when you walk into Outlaw, the labels they don't matter. Here You're not your job title, you're not your family history, you're not the expectations of other people that have been placed on you for years. You're just you moving, breathing, sweating and growing.

Speaker 1: 1:11

There's something incredibly freeing about that and I've seen it hit people in totally different ways. For example, for someone who's in a very high powered position, maybe they're a CEO in charge of a large business or a huge region of a company, the person who's always in charge, right Allah, becomes a place where they don't have to lead, they don't have to be the expert, they just get to be coached, supported and challenged. That shift can be very liberating. There's strength in being guided, in learning again, in letting someone else care about your progress. On the flip side, maybe someone is very early in their career, maybe no one's really expected all that much from them before and they're being told you have what it takes. Suddenly there's a coach who says hey, you're capable of more, you're stronger than you were six months ago. There's a community of people cheering them on, showing up, reminding them that they matter. That kind of belief, it's fuel and it helps people see themselves differently, more clearly and more powerfully.

What I love most is that everyone at Outlaw, regardless of their background, finds common ground in the work. We're doing something hard together. No one's above it, no one's beneath it. You could be lifting next to someone who's been running a multi-million dollar company for 20 years, or someone who's fresh out of school, or someone who has sort of raised a family, been raising a family and finally found time for themselves. In that moment, you're just two people pushing through a workout, breathing heavy wondering if you can kind of keep going and encouraging one another. That is the magic, that is community and that is outlaw. Just come as you are. We have a spot for you. I will see you in the gym.
