“You’ve got to embrace the chaos” with Sam Wood
Sam Wood shot to fame in 2015 as the Australian Bachelor, where he famously met his now-wife Snezana. Now, though, he is best known for his phenomenally successful online health and fitness program, 28 by Sam Wood. Sam got his start in the fitness industry as a skinny kid working at his uni gym before landing a spot at the biggest fitness studio in Melbourne, where he picked the brains of his successful clientele to learn the secrets of small business.
He then launched the first gym franchise for children, Gecko Sports, as well as his own fitness studio the Woodshed, now Australia’s largest personal training studio. But he’s also a devoted family man, having learned the work-life balance lesson from his business-owner dad, and while the Woodshed has been closed due to COVID-19 he’s been relishing spending more time at home with his three kids. Tune in as we chat about losing his mum at a young age, lessons learned from a good-but-not-great business, and what it’s like to be a working dad that does it all.
