In this episode, Sue and Alex pull back the curtain for an honest, personal reflection on what it actually looked like behind the scenes at Physique Development this past year. 2025 was a year of lessons, pivots, and growth. If you're in a season of building—whether it's a business, a body, or a life—this conversation will resonate. Sue and Alex share real numbers from the business, the client wins they're most proud of, and the mistakes, missteps, and moments that forced them to reevaluate how they operate and lead.

They reflect on the evolution of company culture, the work it took to create a more aligned team, and speak candidly about being willing to suck at something before becoming excellent at it—and why that mindset changed everything.

They also touch on personal life reflections: building stability and consistency, maintaining their own health through training, movement, sleep, and nutrition, and how prioritizing their marriage and relationship ultimately strengthened the business.

2025 was one for the books—and this episode is a reminder that real growth happens when you're willing to reflect, adapt, and build with intention.
