Hi everyone, welcome to the introductory episode of No Pain No Business, the podcast that brings you the struggles, the turning points, and the hard fought lessons of building something that truly matters. I'm your host, Chris Lubas, and I'm here to give you an idea today of what to expect over the coming weeks and ultimately to explain why you need to tune in. So, first a little bit about me. I run a medical training company. For the last 15 years, I've done that with my dad. And recently I've set up Chris James Writing as a freelance copywriter, and now obviously I'm a podcast host as well, run this podcast. I know a bit about the pain of starting and running a business or a big project and what it takes to just keep going. Over the years, I've met and worked with some incredible business owners. Behind their businesses are exceptional stories of struggles, turning points, the myth busters, all the things that'll help you navigate running or starting your own business or project. Each episode, I'll bring in guests from an array of backgrounds and businesses that each have their own story to tell about running their own businesses or projects and where they are now. How do they get through the pain and what do they do to uh to push on and keep their businesses going? And just through natural conversations, each guest will give you an actionable takeaway to implementing your own business. As a business owner yourself, you'll know that no one really sees the behind-the-scenes grit and the effort that goes into making a business or project work. My aim is to just show you uh how other businesses and other business owners have just dug in, pushed on, and helped to make their business successful. Even this podcast is starting from scratch, so I'm recording at my home with just whatever audio tools I can get my hands on. I've got my dogs in the background that are hopefully gonna keep quiet throughout the series. And I'm just doing what I can to get it off the ground, really. I'm really looking forward to just making it evolve, really, with you guys on board listening in and hopefully seeing how it improves episode on episode and series on series if I can uh if I can keep it going and if you're interested enough, which I'm absolutely sure you will be. The thing that I think you're gonna really love is that all guests are just everyday people, just like you and me, with exceptional stories, just about how they keep turning up each day and keep their businesses going, what they've been through and how they turned those those dark times around really. What stopped them from quitting ultimately? And because I know that all of us at one point or another would have just thought, why don't I just stop this and just get a normal day-to-day job. You could be a podcast host, you could be a freelance writer, a financial advisor, or just starting out that new SaaS project that you've always had sort of nagging away at the back of your uh at the back of your mind. And whatever it is you're building, this podcast will give you the sanity check and just show you basically that you're not alone. That's where I've done this really. I just want other business owners to see that we're all the same, we're all in the same boat through the sort of highs and lows. Uh, it can be a lonely place out there, so it's nice to just be able to show you other people are going through the same thing and what have they done to get through it. I'm so excited to share the guests and their stories with you. Um, I genuinely just love speaking to people about how they run their businesses, uh, the emotions that go into it, both kind of good and bad, and uh what they've done to get to where they've got to with their businesses. So join me next week when I'll release the first episode and finally get to share with you why I'm so excited about this podcast. I look forward to seeing you then. Thanks, and bye for now.
