I jumped, I just jumped and I didn't know where I was going.
- That's what you gotta do, right guys?
- I really did.
- Just gonna jump, man.
- I was young and I said, if not now, then when?
And so I had the first bout of reality hit me right after I quit my full-time job, I lost a couple clients and then I got really scared and I said, what am I doing?
And then I got five extra clients.
So it was just that battle of, am I doing the right thing?
You know, and then I made a connection with a local business in town, Trailside Events Center, Trefzger's.
And my client base got so big that they let me have classes at Trailside Events Center during the week when they didn't have events going on in the weekends.
So, Sculpt Mode actually started at Trailside Events Center.
- Well, in the crawl space is where it initially started.
(audience laughing) No, it was the crawl space.
I knew a guy in college who worked out, his apartment was this, anyway, it was tiny, but he made it work.
And that's what's important, you gotta, with what the space you have, that's what you gotta do.
