From Side Hustle to Passion Project: The PT Journey

Jon and Pete dive into the world of personal training — from early days in the park with just a kettlebell, to building a home gym studio and a waiting list of clients. Pete shares how he kept it lean, stayed in control of his time, and turned a side hustle into something that earns real money.

They chat online vs. in-person coaching, the power of starting small, and how a notebook can beat any CRM when you’re growing slow and steady. Plus, how resistance training isn’t just for strength — it’s about life quality too.

Thinking about PT work on the side? This episode’s full of great advice to help you do it your way.
