So welcome to the entrepreneurs connection Show. I'm so flippin excited to be on the call right now with torin Molesworth, and he is a personal trainer gone online with exercise and nutrition coaching to help men and women lose weight gain lean muscle and meltaway insecurities without some strict diets and nobody wants to strict diets people just want to live. So Torin thank you so much for being here today. I'm just going to pass it right over to you. You know, would you share with us kind of how you got started being a coach? And what inspired you to do that? And then like, what are you doing now? You know, and tell us a little bit more more about what you do and why you do it?
Torin Molesworth 1:09
Yeah. First off, Mike, let's, let's say thanks for having on the show. It's kind of funny. Michael basically reached out to me and say, oh, could you just like rate and review it? And I was like, Oh, it's helping you like advise me on somebody give me on the show. A little bit about me, I was a person. I've been a personal trainer for about three, three years for over three years. Started got a nutrition coaching certification through precision nutrition at the start of the year, really flipped the way I kind of thought because it was more about coaching people. And it wasn't necessarily about like, hey, like, you just need to tell people what to do. It's like no, like, you need to ask questions. And you really need to dig deep, and you need to figure out who people are. And it was a really cool, like mindset switch. But before I got to the point where I'm at now, where I'm honestly getting quite a few clients month by month, and really loving what I do, I actually started, like I said, with personal training. And I remember it was a bit of my journey really started when I was honestly when I was 18. And I had a buddy that he was engaged at the time. And him and his fiance decided to end it. And he was just like in the pits, the pits, you know, like, he's a young guy like me, I think he was 19 or 20. And this engagement came to that. And we both worked at the same restaurant place called Nelson's frozen custard. But I remember I started working with him. And I didn't know what I was doing. I was 18 years old, right? Like I just I just did my football workouts. And it may not sound like a lot. But I remember when we started working together and just had to do what I was doing, you know, some basic barbell work with some squatting and stuff like that. And just working with him it really like you could tell he started to become a little more confident he started to be happier and kind of just seeing the benefits of just raw exercise and kind of taking care of your body. And he was big into like, some type of karate jujitsu or whichever one's like mostly kicking. He's like, Yeah, dude, like, since we've been like going to the gym and stuff. I've been able to see like, when I kick, like I have a lot more stability in my core, and it's just like, may sound dumb, but it was just like a big moment for me like, wow, like, I've helped to this person, you know what I mean? Like I've small impacts, right? That's awesome.
Michael Rosenberg 3:24
No, and I use a it's small, but I think it's huge. You know, I think that there's every shift that you're able to help someone live a stronger, healthier, more, just like more vibrant life is powerful and impactful. So I think that that is a really powerful story. So you got this resolve for this one gentleman? And then how did you kind of start transitioning to what you're doing today?
Torin Molesworth 3:58
pretty long story, right? Because I was when I was 18. I'm 24 now. Honestly, I served a church mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. And I served in the Philippines. So third world country was kind of crazy. I remember sometimes you just don't have water for three hours. And that's just the way it is. Right? So it gives you a lot of perspective on how like the other half of the world lives. And then obviously, like the point was to, like, talk about Jesus Christ and help people and help them come to God, right. And so honestly, like after that experience was about two years ago, it was like, I still wanted to find a form to help people. But like in my church, it's not a paid position to teach in the church or anything. Like it's something you do as like more of a service calling. So that's not a career path that I could take, right? Yeah. It's like being a clergyman or something like that. So I always like was trying to find something that would help, like, help me help other people because that's where I felt like I had the most reward and what I was doing, and so I remember kind of was in the gym again. Kind of going job to job I worked for a pest control company. They're like, you'd be a great salesman. And I was like, I don't really care about pest control. So I was just like, I remember I started training my cousin for what fun. And then I was like, well, I could probably do this for career, started personal training. And just like seeing little benefits here, and there kind of was my friend, like I had this lady I was working with, and she just wasn't the most mobile lady. Her name was Roberta. And she, I remember she told me at work, like whenever she would have to, like squat down to her locker or sometimes because just depending on where locker was for the day, because they didn't have it, like overnight, she do either have to be like reaching overhead, or she had to be like squatting down to her locker, whatever it was, like, it was just really a struggle. Um, just to do simple things. And working with her were able to get her to a place where she felt comfortable squatting, she felt comfortable moving, right. And that was always the recurring pattern is I just did a great job of helping people move better. But obviously, like, the biggest goal for most people is to lose weight. They want to feel better in their bodies, right? They want to be happy to move around, they want to be able to play with their kids. They don't want to be out of breath when they walk upstairs, right? So I kind of transitioned from personal training into nutrition. That's why I got the nutrition coaching certification. And then seeing the difference. Now, like I'm working with a girl, her name is Morgan, and she's lost like 20 pounds. And I want to say about six weeks. And that just getting a message from her saying, hey, like, because she's a college student. She's 21. But she's like, yeah, I'm just not some fat girl in the mirror anymore. Like I've lost weight before. And I've done it in a very unhealthy an unhealthy way. Right? And so she's like, No, I'm actually learning, like, how to eat healthy, how to have good habits, and how to change my nutrition for a better life. So I'm not just like I said, She's an awesome girl, and I'm here anymore, like I'm a human being that has worth. And I'm not saying that losing weight is everything like everyone has inherent worth. But there's nothing wrong with wanting to improve yourself or feel better about yourself.
Michael Rosenberg 7:02
Yeah, I agree. And I think I think there's something in what you just said, that's really, really powerful. I might say that all the time. But there's something that you just said, that's really powerful. And it reminds me of a quote that some that coach told me once, which was you gain self esteem by doing stealable things. And what he meant by that was basically like, you say, you're gonna do something, and then you follow through on it. And I think the same kind of principle applies when you're working with a coach, or you're working to lose weight or improve your body, it's like, it's not only the losing the weight that raises your self esteem, obviously, that definitely reflects because like, when you look in the mirror, like literally, it reflects back at you. But I think also just when you go after a dream, or you like make a commitment to yourself, and then you fulfill on it. It's like, you're like, wow, like I really did that. Like I really took something on and I went through with it.
Torin Molesworth 8:05
Yeah, that's funny that you said that, because that was one of the points she made is she's like, yeah, I made this commitment to myself that I was gonna lose the way. And I haven't been able to do it the right way. Like she lose it, it comes back on, which is super common with everyone doing like, that's why I say without strict diets, right? Because as soon as you like restrict something, it's like, you know how they say, Don't think of the pink elephant, right? or whatever it is. Think about the pink elephants like a no more pizza that all you think is like how much you want pizza, right? But it was really cool to see with her that she like, that was her goal was she wanted to lose weight, and now she's making it happen. And I know she's saying no to things because it isn't conducive with her goal, right? Like has such a powerful why why she wants to lose the way she's been. She's been bullied a little bit about it. And so just like her commitment to that goal and understand like, hey, like, I just want to do this for me. And I want to do it because I've always wanted to do it and I'm gonna make it happen. And so it's like eating the junk. Or I don't even like to say bad I don't like to say bad or good foods. I like to say foods that get us to our goal and foods that don't she's more likely to eat the foods that get us to our goal.
Michael Rosenberg 9:15
Yeah, I love that. I think it's a really important distinction. Exactly what you said that basically like it's not good, it's not bad. It's just like, is it in line with helping you towards your goal or is it not? And it doesn't have to be right or wrong either way?
Torin Molesworth 9:33
Yeah. Especially when you have people that have food guilt, or like they just feel I like to say this all the time. I tell my clients all the time like hey, I'm not your like food Bishop or your food priest. Right like you don't have to like be like Forgive me father have sinned ate a doughnut like that's not how it works just being um, because a lot of my clients will have them send me just a picture of their food just to keep in check of like, Hey, how are you eating up some keeping me accountable? Hey, like it's okay. That you ate the donut, like it's not gonna kill you, it's not gonna, like throw off everything if we like just eat a little bit bad sometimes like, or sorry, in a way it's Yeah, I'm still working. Yeah, the way that isn't conducive to our goals, because like, ultimately the goal with anyone I work with is I want them to be in a similar position to where I'm at. Because a little bit about me like I, I've done the super strict meal plan thing, I've done the super low body fat I got down to 8% on so 200 pounds 8% body fat. And I just felt like, so hungry all the time. And just like a, just like a constant hunger. And then I was going out to like, what was going like two, five to 10. And I was not 8%. But I was like 1012 going on 15. And I just felt like so slow enough like nobody, because I still like to participate in recreational activities, right? Like the mall or basketball. So now I'm like, at the happy medium where I still around 200. But I said 10 to 12% body fat. But I can still eat a pizza once a week or go out and go to a wings night. You know what I mean? Yeah, and I feel like that's the balance that ultimately that I think everyone should have in their life. It should never be all the time we have to eat in a way that is verbose. And that's what you see is the problem with our honestly, American society, right is everyone's like, Oh, you got to be in a diet, you got to try keto, you got to try, Atkins, whatever it is. And then you can never eat a pancake again. And it's like, that's not living. That's not real. You know what I mean?
Michael Rosenberg 11:29
Yeah, it's not it's like a lot of those. A lot of the diets, they're made up in like a vacuum, right? And it's just like, not the way that people live. So I want to ask you a little bit more about a little bit more about you. What are some of your, you know, personal goals? I know, you know, you just, I don't know if this was recently or if it was a while ago about finding this happy medium and like your own weight and your own, you know? muscle? Yeah, muscle composition, body composition. Well, but I'd love to hear a little bit more about your your business and your coaching business. And like, Where were you looking to grow it to? Or are you looking to grow it? You know, what does that look like for you? What is it vision life for business in the next one or two years?
Torin Molesworth 12:22
So I want to I think sometimes you have to define where you are right now. And then you can define where you're going, right? So I like I said, I've been a personal trainer and nutrition coaching person for so long. I started my journey actually start working with a coach as well. So it's funny, I've heard your introduction. And you're like, yeah, I started with the game with a coach. And then it started happening. And I think that's really the difference right is you've got to find a mentor that you can trust. So I've been very blessed to find one that has helped me tremendously. Shout to Mohammed Alik. But anyways, awesome. Anyways, um, for me, I started this sauna city about three, four months ago, I'm steadily getting I've worked with about 20 people so far. And that's just the start, right. And I'm, I like to say I'm very confident when I do, I'm very good at what I do. Because I've done it for a long time, it was just that coach helped me transition to online, which I honestly see better results with, I can provide more value. And so right now, with about the 20 people I've worked with, I would love if I by the end of next year to work with at least like 300, right. So that's a pretty, pretty sizable goal, I'm getting a lot of traction, I'm pretty happy with where I'm at right now. So honestly, that would be the ultimate goal is that I'm a solo act right now. Ultimately, I would want a team of coaches, probably to three coaches by the end of next year, probably around more realistically, 300 is pretty up there. But probably more realistically, 30 a coach and then 30 for me, so about 120 150 clients, I like to say I'm a one stop shop. So I do charge more than the average trainer, the average person because I know what I can do. And I know I get results, right? Yeah, that would be the ultimate goal is that I start scaling out my team, basically where I'm hiring a coach and then kind of transfer myself out of the business. So I can work on the business, which I'm sure you're well, well aware of yourself.
Michael Rosenberg 14:16
Yeah, yeah. Like? Yeah, definitely. I mean, I think that's a lot of the goals that a lot of coaches have, right? It's like they, they want to have an impact on people. And then they start hitting this point where they have enough clients to like live a good life feel very comfortable and like, and then they also want to continue to grow it and a certain point, you just run out of time, and you're like, Oh, wait, I actually can't serve 40 clients on my own, doing one on one sessions with every single one of them every single week, because then all of a sudden, I just have a job again, but it's not a business. Right. And so, I think that that's a really great goal and that you're already like thinking about like, oh, like how am I going to grow this team. What would you say is the what would you say is the biggest challenge that you might face between here where you are right now. And like this next step, right, the next big step to get to that 300.
Torin Molesworth 15:20
For me, like, I would hope that anyone that interacts with me can see the genuine person I am and the kind of person I am. And so it's kind of hard with the brand, right? Because I called my company is called fitness feels better coaching. So when I say fitness feels better, right, ultimately feeling better about yourself. And I need a team of coaches that can do that, too. That can be genuine and kindness as well. So I think the biggest The hardest thing, or the biggest hurdle that would come from stopping my growth would be finding the right people, if that makes sense. Because I think I can build it out the right way I can make it work. But if I lose that human kindness and genuine aspect of my business, which comes from me, and I lose it on hiring the wrong people, I think that would be a big turnoff for those who come into the system, the ones that like I've talked to, and I've brought them into the program, and then they get into a coach that they're like, well, they're not you don't I mean, and so it kind of it's, I think that's the hardest thing for a lot of people is you have to give up that control of like, hey, like, I'm very good at what I do. But I now need to trust other people to do what I have been doing, if that makes sense. And I think that would be the biggest struggle for me and a lot of people that are in the business sphere.
Michael Rosenberg 16:34
Yeah, I definitely. I definitely agree.
Unknown Speaker 16:38
100%
Michael Rosenberg 16:41
Hmm. Okay, so, now that we've gotten, we've heard a little bit about the future, we've heard about the 300 people's lives being transformed by you and your team, we've heard a little bit of the struggle, I'd love to hear a little bit about what, what I got, like, two or three questions.
Unknown Speaker 17:03
Number one, number one, I've got, like,
Michael Rosenberg 17:06
why, um, why have the desire to, like, grow beyond where you are right now? Right? Like, why have this? Why'd you do that? And then secondly, what I'll get to the second one later, like, why are you Why do you have this desire to grow the team? Like beyond where you are right now?
Torin Molesworth 17:25
I'd like to say two reasons. One is selfish, right? And one isn't the selfish reason being I just don't like I grew up in a family where I'm definitely been in control the situation too much. And it just was, like, impacted me and impacted my two brothers, my sister definitely impacted my parents. And so like, I don't want that for my future family. I don't want money to be an issue. Because like, when money controls you, that's a problem. And for me, it's not even like, I want to make more money. I just want to be free from that grind. Like, I want to be free from the worry about like, Okay, if my kid ends up in the hospital, am I going to be able to pay for it or not? I think I believe it was Grant Cardone talks about how like, the middle class actually isn't the middle class, the middle class are the lawyers and the doctors because they can actually afford services and stuff like that. And so I are like going to the hospital. I mean, so I think for me, ultimately, number one, I would say it's a little bit selfish, right? Because it is, it is a selfish pursuit. Right? businesses are for profit, in a sense. But that being said, ultimately, it's it's I want freedom for my family. And then the second being, I want to help as many people as I can possible, like the one because like, I've had a lot of mental health struggles when I was younger, I did struggled with depression a lot in high school. And when I was 14 1516, kind of bordering into 1718. And it was really like the weight room and taking care of my body that really turned it around for me. And that's why that's why I'm with the line fitness feels better. I don't love the Instagram, the fitness culture at this time, because it's all about like aesthetics looking better than everybody else. And I'm not, I don't love that. I'm a fan of like, Hey, this is your own journey. This is about you becoming a better person through fitness. And ultimately, when you take care of your fitness and feel better, you become more disciplined for other aspects of your life. I have a client I'm working with he's lost 10 pounds in a month, but his body composition composition has changed tremendously. Like he isn't like his stomach is gone. He doesn't have a six pack yet. We're getting there. It's always been a button. But just the carryover effect of him telling me like yeah, I don't just, I'm not at my phone all night screwing around, I'd go to bed because I know I need sleep and then I wake up in the morning and I just start moving. Whereas before we started this journey together, he's laying in bed every day, in the morning for an hour or two just not motivated for life. So it's like when you can make that change on one person. You can help them become a better person right? Through fitness and through taking care of themselves and learning proper habits and learning how to eat for their body. And it has that carryover effect for not only just fitness and nutrition, but with dating, with career with anything they're doing in life being more disciplined in this sphere, it affects other spheres, too. And I think ultimately, for me, the more impact I can have on more people, that would be the ultimate goal, right, would be that I, because that's the struggle I've been through. And that's a struggle I want to help other people been through, and to go through. And so when they see those positive changes in their lives, they'll start believing in themselves and empower themselves to change their life. Does that make sense?
Michael Rosenberg 20:45
Yeah, 100%, I hear number one, that you want to have freedom for yourself and your family. And number two, you want just relaying back a story that you said, it's just like, you have a client who, now that they're exercising, and they're becoming more disciplined, not only are they you know, losing the weight, that's great, but they're waking up, and they're being motivated to live their best life and to really, like, transform everything that they do. And you want to be able to bring that to as many people as possible.
Unknown Speaker 21:24
Yeah.
Michael Rosenberg 21:26
So how have you been? Because this is definitely like a little bit of a business II podcast. So I'm curious. And there are so there are a lot of other coaches are gonna be listening to this. I'm curious, you know, how have you been connecting with your ideal clients on social media, and even author social media, but like what has been working for you, as far as creating these clients that you've been able to help transform?
Torin Molesworth 21:57
I think it's defining who you are. And probably, that might sound weird, but define who you are, and what you do. And then look, for those people that are about the same thing. I do a lot of organic outreach on Facebook. So it's going through friends of friends, it's going through relevant Facebook groups. I'm adding people that I've connections with and that look like they fit my target market. And I was I was honestly never a fan of because like in the fitness sphere, everybody in their moms like, Oh, you have to have a niche, you have to have something very, very specific. Like you have to work with busy moms that are going through menopause that all have a dog named lucky that. Yeah. So and like, it works. It doesn't work. It's just It wasn't me. I didn't like pigeonholing myself, like there's people that I'm a lot. I'm more general, but I still see results. Because I know what I know who I am. And I attract those people. That makes sense. And so when we start going,
Michael Rosenberg 23:05
Oh, it's gonna say can you tell me more about that? And what what you mean, when you say, you know, I know myself and and I attract those people. What do you mean when you say that?
Torin Molesworth 23:14
I think it's about what comes down to your body system and what you care about. So what I care about what fitness is, I care about losing weight, gaining lean muscle, and then multi-way insecurities, because that's what fitness did for me. It helped me become more confident and helped me be who I am today overcome my depressions and everything else in my life. It's improved my life tremendously. So because I know like, this is what fitness did for me, it helps me improve my life, it helped me feel better about myself. That's what I'm now looking for. And for me, I'm a big fan of the law of attraction, you attract what you are. So when you are a genuine, 100% person, you attract those that genuinely are genuine as well. Right? So as long as I know that, that is what I'm after, I have clearly defined I want to help people that want to lose weight, gaining muscle, and melt away their insecurities. That's a journey I've been through I can be a leader in the sphere, right? That's what I mean by knowing yourself is I know that about me. So now I know it can be a leader in that sphere. Now I searched for those people that fit that demographic.
Michael Rosenberg 24:17
Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Thanks for clarifying. Because I think a lot of people feel the same way. You know, and I work with coaches. And it's the same exact thing. It's like, oh, like, I'm not sure like my stuff could work for everybody. But finding that I think truth in yourself and connecting with that identity that you have about how your fitness or your coaching has transformed you. And then sharing that definitely informs like the people that you're attracting. So I think that makes a lot of sense. And I interrupted you, you were gonna say something else about reaching out to people or something along those lines.
Torin Molesworth 24:58
I think I just being genuine with your outreach. I remember I read. So for everybody this podcast, Michael Rosenberg was a hopeful client. So I sent him a voice message. And then he's like, Wow, thanks for the personalized message, right? Because like, the thing is, people don't hear voices enough. Nowadays, we are texting all the time. We're messaging all the time. So many people are dissin genuine in the online sphere, through organic outreach. People just message their calendar link after the person replies or say, like all the best and be like, Hey, how's it going, and the person's like, good. And then they send them a calendar link like, oh, great way to be a robot, right? Like you want people to open up to you. So you got to be a genuine human being. And you actually have to, like, love people, or like, be kind to people and relate with their problems and really dig deep into their problems. I don't know I just I do a lot of calls. I like to do two calls, first calls just so I could get to know you call. And then the second call will be like a more in depth, kind of nitty gritty like, okay, what's really going on call. But I just think that like, first contact with a prospect is so important. Like, you just can't like I remember I called Top Golf because I was in Arizona, I'm actually living in Utah, but I was in Arizona visiting some family. And we call I call it Top Golf to like, hey, like, just want to talk to somebody make reservations, because they do online, but it has to be the next day. But we're like, we want to go tonight. And so we call them and I get a bot. And then the bot just cycles me I go through the number, the number pad like, oh, hit seven for this, I'm okay. I'll hit five for this. Okay. And that's like, oh, there's no available representatives, available at this time and then hung up. And I was like, wow. Thank you. I feel I feel so cared about right now. Wow. So like, I think the market is so focused on automation, automating systems that were losing the human touch aspect. So if you keep the human touch aspect, you're not going to lose, you're not going to lose sales, you're not going to lose prospects, because ultimately, I'm in just a random thought, like, anytime we sell somebody, we're not really selling them. It's not like a slimy salesperson, right? We're just trying to help them. Right. And the money is an investment of time. And so when they invest with us, they're investing their time, right? Because they use their time to work, which gives them money. So they're investing the time they've had into us. So there's nothing. So for those who are worried about sales, just keep that in mind. But like I said, I think it's just so important that anything you do you just remember that you're talking to a human being that has their own worries, their own needs, their own wants. And if you can tap into those needs, wants and desires, that's when you can truly help somebody. And that's when you get them on with you as a coach. Because if I'd say like, what is what's the vast majority of your viewership for this podcast? Would you say it's coaches or
Michael Rosenberg 27:47
Yeah, it's it's coaches and, you know, entrepreneurs, who, you know, are out to impact people, I think it's, it's mainly coach, it's going to be mainly coaches,
Torin Molesworth 28:00
or any coach, like you have to want to help people, and you have to get to know your prospects. And so if you don't know, the right questions to ask, or if you don't know how to get to somebody, like or get to know somebody, like you need to work on your people skills, and you just need to have conversations and get comfortable asking questions that are sometimes uncomfortable to ask. I mean, I talked to a woman all the time, and I asked her way all the time, right? men aren't supposed to ask a woman their weight, right? But when you do it in a genuine way, they understand, hey, I'm asking her Wait, because like a doctor prescribing, prescribing something for you, I'm doing the same thing. Like I want to know what's going on. Because when we know what's going on, we can help you change, we can help you get your desire, whether it be to lose 1520 pounds or look great for your wedding. Right? We can get you there. And once we know all the problems, and we bring them to light, and then we can discuss them so that we don't have an issue down the line where let's say you do come on as a client, and then I'm coaching you and you're like, Well, what about this? It's like, well, crap, because if we talked about that before, it wouldn't have been a problem. Like a lot of times you'll woman that will come in and they'll say, Yeah, I have issues with my hormones. And I'm like, Yeah, but if I stuck to a tree for a week, and you didn't eat anything, would you lose weight? like yeah, I'm like, exactly, like hormones do play a role. But ultimately, if we eat the right foods, and we take care of it the right way, it's not going to be as big of an issue, if that makes sense.
Michael Rosenberg 29:26
Yeah, it does. And I like I liked everything that you said in there, Turin, for sure. I think a big thing is really being curious to really find out and interact with your perfect clients and your dream clients. Because if you're not having if you're not getting into conversations with them, asking them those difficult questions or asking them questions at all, then it's pretty challenging to, you know, make relationships and help people serve people powerfully. So I think that that's like a golden What advice? Exactly.
Torin Molesworth 30:02
And then like, I think too, is like so many coaches are so desperate for. I don't know if that's the right word, but they just like try to get anyone in their program. And it's like, you can't take everybody, you're not going to be able to help everybody. There are people you will do very well with. And then there are people that you won't, and you should not help those people that you won't, because it is not your responsibility. I remember I had one guy come in, and I was kind of just asking him questions, trying to diagnose what's going on with his weight loss journey. And he got upset with me. He's like, yeah, I'm just I think you're just like taking me through this like funnel, and you're just trying to try to show me and trying to get my money. And I was like, you know, man, like, I'm here to help. And I just don't think you're gonna be a good fit for the program. And so I turned him away. And I remember, I don't remember what book it was. But one of the quotes was, I forgot who it was. It was like Warren Buffett or something. But he said, He's like, I don't know the best way to get rich. But I know, the quickest way not to is to say yes to everything.
Michael Rosenberg 31:01
Yeah, I think that that's a wise piece of advice. I haven't. I've heard it, but I don't know who it's from. But I absolutely agree. I think that that's a really important lesson. And because look at you, Turin, you've got 20 clients currently. And you're already thinking about, oh, like, I need to get some other coaches, you know, I need to get some other coaches. And, you know, a lot of people, they think the same way that you were saying, it's like, oh, like, I can help everyone, like, I just got to get people into the program. Well, it's like, if they, if they're not good fit, then they're not going to get results and you're not going to get results, you're going to be unhappy, they're going to be unhappy. And it's just all a vicious circle. So yeah, I think that's thanks for sharing that. I got I got one more question for you, Turin. And it's really a pretty open question. And it's, is there anything that you wish you had shared today? Or any question you wish that I had asked? That I haven't asked, you already?
Torin Molesworth 32:11
Know, but I think I could leave with a word of advice, though. Tamara. Listening in that okay with you. Yeah, it's perfect. Start now, I, I kind of I knew online, like I knew of this business model before, I'd say about two years ago. And as I was being I was actually I was at Anytime Fitness, I was a pretty successful trainer. And I was looking at the model pretty seriously. But I shied away from it. And it's like, you just like why you're afraid of you need to run to. And that's how you get results. I remember like all the time, I'd get caught up into the website or get caught up into how a landing page looked or whatever software I was using, oh, what's the right software and just get caught up in all this nonsense at the end of the day. What gets you to your goal of owning a business, transforming yourself out of your job, or getting yourself out of a crappy monetary situation where you can have more freedom is you just need to act and buy act. I mean, you need to talk to people, and you need to figure out what their problems are. And then you need to help them there is no you can't spend all your time on your website can't spend all your time looking at software's or whatever it is, you need to take action, that's what's gonna get you out of the hole that you're possibly in. Or if you're stuck somewhere and you don't know where to go, that's what's gonna get you out of it. And it honestly took me probably three years to figure that out. And like I've taken I've taken consistent action for three months, obviously, with the holidays fell off a little bit here, there. But when you take consistent action to your goals in a way that's profitable, which means talking to people on the phone, in person, or whatever, whatever your form of selling is, that's how you're going to get to your goal. And that's where most of your time should be spent to be like 80%, prospecting, selling, fulfilling and then 20% all the technological stuff that really doesn't matter. Anyways, if you're good at what you do, right?
Michael Rosenberg 34:16
Yeah. Hmm. That is a gem right there squeezing some juice on the end of this interview, Turin tell everybody where they can find you where they can connect with you. And yeah, if they want to find out more and get in touch with you and make changes in their life, maybe or just connect and collaborate possibly.
