Description

Chad Cohen is the founder of Fortem Media, a creative agency helping brands land at the center of culture, and the co-founder of Unofficial Run Club, one of the fastest-growing running communities in the world.

Two years ago, Chad hit a wall. Burnt out and mentally exhausted, he turned to therapy and was given a challenge that would change everything: run the New York City Marathon.

Since then, he’s built a thriving agency, scaled a global community, and brought on a full-time videographer to document every step.

In this episode, Chad opens up about how movement helped rebuild his mindset. He talks about the highs and lows of agency life, building a personal brand with intention, learning to manage a team while always on the move, and why he doesn't believe in turning pro.
