In Part I of our two-episode chat with Coach Juan Acevedo, he shares his story of moving from Colombia to the US, changing career directions from pursuing a PHD to becoming a coach, and then going from being an in-person trainer to starting an online business for movement, nutrition, and mindset coaching. Hear how he puts relationships first and lets go of things like social media. Juan shares how his story evolved—from nights of partying and doing drugs into learning more about CrossFit and finding that it changed his life. Tune in next week to continue the story and dive into his company, SelfMastery Training.
