On this episode I had an absolute blast chatting with the one and only Luke Baden!

Luke is not just a super experienced PT and coach, yet he’s also got a unique blend of fun and science that makes fitness accessible and exciting for everyone.

Luke’s got a philosophy degree under his belt, which he uses to think critically and apply those deep insights to his coaching. He dropped some golden tips on how PTs can sharpen their critical thinking skills to level up their practice. We also dove into how CrossFit education has shaped his approach to coaching and programming.

But that’s not all! Luke shared his wisdom on why saying “no” can actually fuel your business growth and give you more energy to crush your goals. And if you’ve ever thought about building an app, Luke’s got some real talk on the financial risks, the patience needed, and how to enjoy the journey.

Tune in for an episode packed with insights, laughs, and actionable advice!
