245. Amoila Cesar, BODi Super Trainer & Strength Coach

Growing up as one of seven siblings with a single mom, resilience was instilled in Amoila Cesar from a young age. After moving to Los Angeles to get his start working in fitness, he worked at LA Fitness until going out on his own — taking on personal training clients as an independent trainer. That leap of faith changed everything for him. Now, he's leading hundreds of thousands on their fitness journeys, pushing people beyond what they thought possible and changing lives as a BODi Super Trainer. Plus, he still works one-on-one with professional athletes and A-list celebrities (including Two Chainz and Julius Randle among others). In today's episode, he talks about the challenges that came hand-in-hand with success, and how he prioritizes self-care today to be his best.

244. Elizabeth Cutler, Co-Founder of Peoplehood & SoulCycle

To say that Elizabeth Cutler has been a major influence in the wellness industry would be a drastic understatement. The SoulCycle co-founder has been name-dropped on this show dozens of times by other founders as an OG inspiration. And today, I'm catching up with her to talk about her newest company with co-founder Julie Rice, Peoplehood. Described by The New York Times as "SoulCycle without the bikes," you can think of Peoplehood's gathers (that's what they call a class) as fitness for your relationships. Elizabeth fills us in on the benefits of this type of communication opportunity, why she believes the concept is more important than ever post-pandemic in the midst of a global loneliness crisis, and her hope for the company moving forward just a week after opening their Chelsea flagship. Plus: How she got through the emotional difficulty of stepping away from SoulCycle in 2016, and the best-practice advice she'd give any aspiring entrepreneur.
