You are listening to the 10-minute entrepreneur podcast with host Sean Castrina.

I'm excited about today's interview because I have an entrepreneur. I have an author. You know, that's to me. That's the holy grail of an interview if I can get an entrepreneur.

I have Chad Price. He has founded Kettlebell King's Life Bros. Green and he's the author preparing for battle.

So Chad Price, my guest, tell me, what made you write the book?

Well, I mean, a lot of things, you know, I think at a point in life where I kind of culminated kind of the end of one journey and starting another.

And, you know, I think it was a good time for me to kind of recap and put a lot of my lessons down if you will and some of the things I've learned through my entrepreneur experience so far.

Yeah, I mean, when you reach that point, you go, you know, because people ask you, and I'm sure you've had this like, why is it worked for you?

Yeah, you know, I've had it. Yeah, where they come up and they ask, I remember when I wrote my first book, it was the same thing I've sitting on a beach with a legal pad.

And I just started writing down like one sentence of things that work, things that didn't work.

Next thing you know, it turns out to be a book. And your title seems something similar to that kind of experience.

Yeah, I mean, even going through the process, you know, we were recently acquired in at the end of 2021.

So just going through the process of transitioning people on board and trying to, you know, break the business down to something that can be explained to, you know, larger groups of people or people who may have not been in it so long.

I really kind of showed me as well that, you know, there's a lot of information between where we are and where we started that it could be helpful to kind of put that in an order that people can absorb more.

Let's say at a faster pace than, you know, the 10 year journey that it took us to get there.

So try to avoid some of the mistakes that we made and, you know, try to teach some of the concepts that may have helped us in the past and still ongoing.

And we're talking about kettlebell kings, which you've built into an international company. I'm assuming we're on the right page here.

Correct. Yeah. So that, yeah, that's the kettlebell kings journey. And then even with my life grows green journey, you know, it's a, it's, it's, it's its kind of own different beast, if you will, just because we have, you know, you're, you're battling the stigma's around him and CBD and things like that.

And then you're also, you know, you're fighting against kind of the commercialization of the things we ingest from supplements to, you know, the things we eat to really every product that we use.

You know, life grows green and kind of my entire business model has been built around kind of making people better, making them hold our healthier, better, better fit, better, kind of overall general wellness.

I'm continuing that journey with life grows green and, you know, the book kind of culminates where I've gone so far and the things I've learned and kind of talks about what's next.

I'm going to jump into the book. I'm going to get it just a couple of things I always like to ask guests specifically if they've been an entrepreneur case, I have an author that's good on a subject matter, but they haven't been an entrepreneur, so I can't ask him my most important question.

So when did you know you were an entrepreneur?
