Can i Kick It Can i Kick It Your go-to podcast for all things soccer related Can I Kick It? Tanner David Alcaraz Soccer in general The Business of Boutique Fitness Lise Kuecker I'm Lise Kuecker, a long time Studio Owner turned founder here at Studio Grow. Just a few years ago, I was building my studios the hard way cause I didn't have the team, the budget, or most importantly the time. If you speed up to today, I sold my wildly profitable studios in the mid-7 figures while serving my community in ways I could have only dreamed. Now, I work with thousands of boutique fitness studio owners in over 40 countries and am so blessed to share some of the best tested strategies for our industry every single week. I created this podcast so you'd always have clear, actionable processes, tried and tested Facebook advice and some good ole fashioned inspiration so that you can take simple actionable steps to grow your studio and turn it into a powerhouse empire, just like I did. If you're a studio owner who's ready to impact your community and see major growth in the process, or you're prepping to become one, then you are in the right place. So let's kick this off, s Blackeout Radio Blackeout Radio (Hit me up at [email protected]. We also have a fb fan page, just search "Blackeout Radio.")This is Blackeout Radio hosted by the one and only Takeo (Coffee) Blacke. They call me Coffee cuz I wake up the mind, and that's what this show gonna do. Don't be mistaken, I can kick out the old school jams from A Tribe Called Quest, Kool and the Gang, Parliament, Stevie Wonder, and Rakim. I can also take it to the new school with Q-Tip, Lyrics Born, Lupe Fiasco, Common, and Jay-Z. But what I really came to do is to provoke the mind and have you see the world in ways you've never seen it before. The thoughts I'm gonna implant in your head will enter like a needle and spread like an oak tree. Before you know it, you'll see the world through a new pair of eyes thanks to the Coffeeman.Get ready, cuz Blackeout Radio is up and running.
