Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of the podcast.

0:10.4

Today's title, working title, is the evolution of an entrepreneur.

0:18.8

And I've broken this up into multiple stages.

0:23.3

And how I came to this topic and what I want to share with you guys today is last

0:31.0

week I walked out into our office space.

0:35.0

You know, in the new BPNHQ, the way it's set up is the entire facility's

0:40.7

76,000 square feet. 9,000 square feet is dedicated to our gym, our training facility,

1:53.7

my own private door from my office into the gym. So if I'm sitting at my desk, I'm looking out

2:00.6

towards a brand team and into my back

2:02.7

is a gym and where my bike is set up right now for my Ironman training is probably 50 feet,

2:10.3

if that, from where I sit and work at my desk during the day. I've had this idea actually recently to get rid of my office

2:21.0

and just be a floater throughout the open concept space

2:27.1

and the conference rooms and get rid of my own personal office.
