What''s good family?!?! This week, we stepped out of our usual studio to record at one of Las Vegas's most stunning fitness destinations: SVG3 Fitness. Owner Chris Merafuentes graciously opened his doors to us, sharing both his incredible space and his inspiring story.

Chris walked us through his unconventional path to gym ownership. He tells us about a journey that began with him scraping together money he didn't have just to access the conversations at an upscale gym. He'd sit in the sauna, absorbing the positive energy and inspiration from other members, knowing those moments were shaping his future.

From there, we dive into Chris's winding career path: Navy service, electrician training, surgical tech school, and bartending. Despite earning good money behind the bar, something was missing. The day he walked away from financial security to pursue personal training changed everything. Nearly a decade of grinding through the fitness industry ranks led him to where he is today, running his own thriving gym.

This conversation goes deep. Chris opens up about his darkest moment when he nearly gave up on life entirely, and how he transformed that pain into purpose. We explore what it means to truly own not just a business, but own your life. This being achieved by knowing how to build something meaningful alongside the people you love.

Hit play for an honest, inspiring conversation about resilience, following your gut, and creating the life you actually want to live.
