The Brian Keane Podcast

A fitness, nutrition, fitness and business mix of questions for today's solo Q+A.     1: Nutrition has changed a lot in the last 5 years — what's one thing you believed about dieting in your early fitness career that you've completely reversed your thinking on? 2: What's the honest truth about how alcohol has affected your performance, recovery, and mindset over the years?   3:  How do you train through grief, stress, or emotional chaos — when the gym is the last place you want to be but probably where you need to be most?" — Practical and deeply human.   4: What's something you've changed your mind on completely in the last 12 months - about yourself, not about business or fitness?   5: What does your relationship with money actually look like day to day - spending, guilt, enjoyment - now that you have financial security? 6: How do you price yourself when you're scared you're too expensive?   Timestamps may vary by 2-4 minutes based on podcast platform:    00:00 Introduction and Overview of the Podcast 01:33 Evolution of Nutrition Beliefs 10:17 The Impact of Alcohol on Performance and Recovery 18:32 Training Through Grief and Emotional Chaos 27:16 The Power of Community 35:18 Understanding Financial Relationships 43:16 Pricing and Self-Worth in Business         My new book Scaling Your Story  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Scaling-Your-Story-Framework-Entrepreneurs-ebook/dp/B0GX2TMRMJ/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2OSXWA81V0CJV&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.T3cTwdOuW4XD8qhTkZWpSw.wGN4uRHlTVDCp0L4OER9bJnAtjOEXVIAwkUUNjpXbfM&dib_tag=se&keywords=scaling+your+story&qid=1778159604&sprefix=%2Caps%2C126&sr=8-1     Business Mentorship:  https://briankeanefitness.com/mentorship-and-business-coaching     The Circle: https://briankeanefitness.com/online-mastermind

1: You mentioned on a podcast that you work 20-30 hour weeks. What do you actually say 'no' to that most people in your position would say 'yes' to?" 00:58 2: What's the loneliest you've ever felt on this journey, not the dramatic rock bottom, but the quiet, invisible loneliness that nobody talks about when you're building something? 14:30 3: You went from primary school teacher to running a very successful business. Was there a specific moment where you stopped feeling like an 'imposter' and actually felt like you'd earned your place? 25:54 4: Most people think the goal is to stop caring what others think. But is that actually true for you? Do you still care — and if so, how do you stop it from running your decisions? 35:56     The Circle group mastermind:  https://briankeanefitness.com/online-mastermind   Business Mentorship with Brian:  https://briankeanefitness.com/mentorship-and-business-coaching
