We recently connected with Richard Sparks and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Richard, great to have you with us today and excited to have you share your wisdom with our readers. Over the years, after speaking with countless do-ers, makers, builders, entrepreneurs, artists and more we’ve noticed that the ability to take risks is central to almost all stories of triumph and so we’re really interested in hearing about your journey with risk and how you developed your risk-taking ability.
My biggest risk was taking a job on short notice and moving 3 hours away from everything and everything I’ve ever know.
Since then the risks seem a lot easier. It allowed me to take the biggest risk of my life by giving up a close to six figure income 10 years ago to pursue my dream. I started training with just one client twice a week.
Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?
What makes our fitness facility truly special is that we are more than just a gym—we’re a locally owned and operated community that has thrived for 13 years, even overcoming the challenges of COVID-19. We take pride in offering some of the most unique equipment in the state, giving our members access to cutting-edge training tools they won’t find anywhere else.
This year marks a major milestone for us as we transition into a public health club for the first time ever. We’re excited to welcome even more people into our fitness family, and there’s no better way to celebrate than with our grand opening on May 17th! Join us at our brand-new studio, located at 3900 Shelbyville Rd, Floor 2, Louisville, KY 40207, and experience firsthand what sets us apart. Whether you’re new to fitness or looking for a fresh, innovative training environment, we’re here to help you reach your goals.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
The key to starting any business is surrounding yourself with two to three trusted individuals who share your vision—build together and rise to the top as a team.
How would you spend the next decade if you somehow knew that it was your last?
The box gyms have a lot of marketing power. We have to be very selective on our marketing strategy allocation.
