EP. 151 : Check-in with the machas. How life has changed since the first episode.
A lot has changed since we first started Barbell Machas. Different gyms, different jobs, COVID, businesses, relationships, families… and somehow we’re still here talking rubbish into microphones.
This episode was a bit different. No guest, no real agenda. Just us sitting down and actually reflecting on where life has taken us and how much we’ve changed along the way.
We spoke about success, responsibility, relationships, people’s opinions, building businesses, trying to find “balance” and why sometimes you need to stop chasing the next thing long enough to realise you’ve actually come quite far.
Probably one of the more honest conversations we’ve had in a while.
