Always like to see candidates who've endured a tough season and not just rode a rocket ship. Both teach you something. We've had a lot of talented people at Plunge over the years, and the standouts were the ones who'd seen both sides.
Dont equate a brands success with some random employee who worked there.
we had a department lead get poached this year.
they were fine, department was functioning.
but Ridge is crushing, the name meant something on a resume, and they got recruited.
The department currently doesnt have a leader...
AND IT IS FUCKING RIPPING.
2x the performance as before.
A rising tide lifts a lot of boats.
Inside and outside your org.
Brand success can cover up for a lot of mediocre sins.

What a beautiful insight
The hardest lesson NFL MVP Steve Young ever had to learn.
"Fear-based thinking is a liar. I was afraid of failure, so much so that I paid this price so that I could have success. I learned as an older person, that's a fallacy. That's fraudulent."
"I'm not going to pay for success with my worry and fretting. Man, fame is a thief. Fear-based thinking is a thief. There's a lot of thieves in life."

We worked with Bryan for a year before this was even an option, with him testing our product and testing himself to see the true impact of sauna. What I loved was he made it clear early on that he was going to share the results of his testing regardless the results.
Is your product legit?
Consumers don’t know who to trust. We just launched a new marketplace of certified brands, starting with two of my favorites:
Eight Sleep: I achieved 8 months of perfect sleep on this bad-boy.
Plunge Sauna: don’t forget to ice your boys. My protocol is 200°F (93°C) for 20 min, daily.
These are products I trust:
+ backed by research
+ vetted by my clinical team
+ studied for longevity
We reject most products.

From garage start-up to nine figure wellness brand👇
@thecoldplunge Co-founder @RADuey is one of the most admirable and inspirational entrepreneurs of this decade.
“Be easy to root for”
Underrated career hack for young people:
Be easy to root for.
Show up early. Do what you say you're going to do. Take things off others plates. Stay late. Work weekends. Have a great attitude. Don't gossip, whine, or complain.
Be easy to work with and hard to compete against.

Niche—> mainstream happens quick these days
What was once niche is now mainstream in health discussions: clean eating, resistance training, sprints, avoiding blue light at night, sunrise viewing, phthalate avoidance, meditation, breathwork, cold, heat, creatine, microbiome, peptides, clean water etc. Health is a practice.

Thanks @JoePompliano !
Plunge (podcast sponsor) is currently running its biggest sale ever: 15% off all products through November.
The cold plunge is a game changer (and incredibly well made), and now they offer saunas, too.
Check them out for better sleep, energy, etc.

The Plunge mission is rooted in our responsibility to the planet and that’s why we donate 1% of our revenue across three different environmental and humanitarian nonprofits through our 1% For the Planet membership. #coldplunge
It’s 1997 and I was 11. I’d go with my Dad every weekend to sell Beanie Babies at Flea markets. He made a killing. Start of my entrepreneur journey
