In a world where societal standards and social media often dictate how we should look and feel, body acceptance can be challenging, especially for young girls. Sadie Kurzban who is the incredible CEO of 305 Fitness is redefining fitness by creating an empowering space where joy, movement, and self-acceptance take center stage.
305 Fitness is a business entirely managed by women and is thriving!
Breaking Free from Societal Pressures
From a young age, many girls are bombarded with idealized images and narrow definitions of beauty. I know that until I reached adulthood, I felt that beauty meant a particular look. Societal pressures can lead to negative body image and diminished self-worth.
However, Sadie Kurzban’s journey and philosophy offer a refreshing perspective. She believes that fitness should not be about conforming to unrealistic standards but about celebrating one’s unique self. Her journey started with body image issues and then she decided to debunk the ‘acceptable’ body image set by society.
The 305 Fitness Revolution
Sadie’s story is nothing short of inspirational. While studying in college, she recognized the transformative power of dance. She decided to create a fitness business that was not only about physical well-being but also about mental and emotional joy. Then, 305 Fitness was born!
At the age of 25 she bootstrapped the studio with just $25,000! 305 Fitness is a high-energy, dance-cardio workout that feels more like a night out than a gym session.
Navigating Challenges and Embracing Resilience
The early stages of building a small business naturally come with challenges. I know when I was starting The Friday Society, especially the monthly marketing membership, I had a lot of hard decisions and challenges to face.
Sadie’s journey highlights the importance of confidence, resilience, and hard work. Managing a fitness studio involves continuous learning, hands-on involvement, and seizing growth opportunities. In the episode, Sadie shares valuable insights on the factors influencing the sustainability of pop-up businesses, the criteria for hiring instructors, and the delicate balance female leaders must maintain between nurturing and assertiveness.
Entrepreneurship
Despite her role as CEO, Sadie remains committed to teaching classes and emphasizes the importance of staying connected with her community. This hands-on approach is a testament to her belief that leaders should never lose touch with the core of their business.
One of her main missions, is helping women feel deep connection to themselves. I am so inspired by her and absolutely loved chatting with Sadie. Do yourself a favor and listen to the episode!
