How a $50,000 Bet on Himself Changed Everything: Dr. Alex Spinoso's Origin Story - EP 293

from The Spinoso Podcast

At 30 years old I had a government job a nice house in Palm Springs a view of the mountains and I wanted to walk into traffic. Not because my life was falling apart. Because it wasn't going anywhere. I was a doctor working at the California Department of Corrections done with my day by noon reading business books for the rest of the afternoon because there was literally nothing else to do. Everyone around me said I made it. I knew I hadn't. So I convinced my wife to move out of our house rent it on Airbnb and move into a 100 square foot dining room with plywood sheets for doors and our clothes in trash bags on the floor. We lived like that for months. Saved everything we could. Then I found out about a mastermind run by Andy Frisella and dropped $50,000 which was half of everything we had saved on a bet that it would work. It did. This episode is the full origin story. From prison doctor to building Genesis Lifestyle Medicine to 80 locations. What actually pushed me to leave stability behind how I found my business partner what it really costs to build something from zero and why the most important decision I ever made was the one that scared me the most.
