#22 - How to Find Your Motivation - Kelli Coleman

In this episode of the CCU Podcast, I sit down with CEO of Goals Not Dreams, Kelli Coleman. Kelli founded Goals Not Dreams in 2018 in Chicago, IL after realizing her skillset could better support her own objectives as an independent business owner. She spent three and a half years operating a 35,000 square foot corporate fitness facility inside the Willis Tower, before starting to train independently at a private training facility. Now Goals Not Dreams has turned into its own facility known as GND Strength Society! Kelli strongly believes that if you have a body, you are an athlete! In her words, “I knew the world needed to change and I knew I had to be the one to start it. Gyms were never welcoming to people like me. Fat, black, gay AND a woman. I never fit in for real… so I decided to take up space, in my own space and made two of them!” Kelli lives to inspire those who need it the most, and those who don't know they need it yet.In this episode we discuss:Obesity and mental health struggles as a catalyst for changeInvesting in real estate as a means to have a safety netOpening a gym to create a safe and inclusive environmentInclusivity is not exclusiveManaging chaos and challengesWorking with an investorManaging building a team and having friends as employeesHaving a deep ”why can overcome any how”And more!Find Kelli:Website - https://www.goalsnotdreams.net/IG - @GNDstrengthsociety and @gnd_atx__________Paul's singular goal is to raise the bar for coaching.
