Manage episode 432758820 series 2483193
What does it really take to build a successful business and balanced life? In this episode of the Habits and Hustle Podcast, I am joined by Mind Pump’s Adam Schafer to discuss this very thing.
We discuss Adam’s challenging upbringing, including his father's suicide, an abusive stepfather, and the importance of allowing children to struggle and learn from challenges, rather than solving all their problems, even going as far as "manufacturing adversity" to help build character in privileged children. We also dive into a wide range of topics such as self-awareness in relationships, building sustainable, profitable businesses rather than chasing vanity metrics or venture capital funding, investing in yourself and your own growth, the potential negative impacts of social media, especially on younger generations, and much more.
Adam Schaefer is a successful fitness entrepreneur and IFBB Men's Physique Pro. Adam has obtained certifications from top fitness institutions and has trained over 1000 clients. As a co-founder of Mind Pump, he combines his expertise with his partners to make a positive impact on the fitness industry, bridging the gap between wellness and performance.
What We Discuss:
(06:42) Success Through Adversity
(25:50) Gaining Advantage Through Adversity
(35:11) Understanding Family Dynamics and Breaking Cycles
(44:00) Recognizing Insecurities and Growth

(01:19:55) Authenticity vs Social Media Persona
