Buckle-up today my friends. International IMPACT Day is this week (October 10th). Therefore, I can think of no one better to be on the IMPACT SHOW podcast this week than a man who is creating a whole heck of a ton of IMPACT. His name is Andrew Ruiz and wait until you hear his inspiring story.
Andrew Ruiz is someone I’ve known for more than a dozen years. He started with me as a client when he was a college football player. Then he became an intern. A decade later, as a young father & husband, he enrolled in my God-Sized Dreams coaching program. And then he became part of my IMPACT-Coaching program for high-performers. And NOW, he is opening up our first proto-type IMPACT-X Performance brick & mortar franchise in Huntington Beach, CA. Let’s GOO!!!
Andrew is one of the sharpest, smartest, and most empathetic leaders I know and he’s doing amazing things both in his career as a leader within radiology at “C.H.O.C.” (Children’s Hospital of Orange County) and now within the fitness space as the proud owner of IMPACT-X Performance Huntington Beach (CA).
Here is some of what we talked about on this week’s IMPACT SHOW podcast:
