Leadership Lesson: Leaders Possess Presence 150 150 Bryce Henson

Leadership Lesson: Leaders Possess Presence

Effective leadership requires presence.

How to develop more presence you might ask?

Drum roll.

Wait for it.

Are you ready?

Be present.

My leadership message today?

During today’s celebration and throughout the holidays.

Be present with your loved ones.

Put away the phone.

Turn off the TV.

Dig into enriching conversations with your loved ones about the important things in life.

Listen.

Make eye contact.

Be present.

After all, good leadership possesses presence.

Merry Christmas!

[MM]: Make a promise, keep a promise (Brazil) 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM]: Make a promise, keep a promise (Brazil)

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

Live from Rio De Janeiro Brazil having arrived yesterday.

Why?

To make good on a promise I made my mother-in-law Cristina back in 2012.

The promise?

To bring her daughter home for Christmas after sweeping her away from her Brazilian home after living there from 2010-2012.

Looking back, it’s been a 12-year sprint of keeping that promise.

Of course, there are other big benefits of making the journey including gaining access to perspective and my Brazilian family.

Travel gives you perspective and develops leadership ability.

I buy into the adage.

“Perspective is Leadership and Leadership is Perspective”.

So this annual ritual makes me a better leader.

Looking ahead to this special week.

My main message is to be a person of your word.

When you make a promise, keep a promise.

No matter the challenge or inconvenience. 

Not only does this create more credibility with others. 

It creates more self credibility.

The best part?

Self-credibility is the foundation of self-confidence.

This is your success formula!

Merry Christmas!

Leadership Lesson: If someone doesn’t want to be you, they will never follow you. 150 150 Bryce Henson

Leadership Lesson: If someone doesn’t want to be you, they will never follow you.

Let me explain.

Leadership is a game of attraction, not promotion.

It’s an inside game.

Meaning, you need to do the ongoing internal work to become a better and more enlightened human being.

This is a lifelong pursuit.

Why?

If someone doesn’t want to be you, they will never follow you.

This is at the foundation of long-term leadership.

The lesson today?

The best leadership hack is to build the person you want to follow and then demonstrate that person to the world.

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

Back in 2021, my friend and franchise partner CJ, who has a heart of gold, came to me and our HQ team with an idea.

“Bryce, we do such great work here at Fit Body helping our clients with their fitness and fat loss goals, but know we can do even more! 

As we know, Thanksgiving is an amazing time but can be tough for those in need. What if we create a giant food drive with all of the brand participating to help out the less fortunate and make a massive impact together?

He then began to draw out a plan on a whiteboard and finished his pitch with this:

“If we execute well, I think we can raise over 100,000 food items together”.

Well, on CJ’s and his teams back, we launched the vision in 2022 and we called it the Fit Body Food Battle.

It was a small start but we started.

Fast forward a few years, and our 3rd Annual Fit Body Food Battle results are in as of last week. 

The good news?

We beat last year’s tally coming in at 194,200 food items donated as a brand. 

That’s right, this little vision produced 194,200 food items of donation to help the less fortunate!

What’s even better?

Friends and Franchise Partners Abe and Danika from North Meridian Fit Body in Idaho took 1st place with 30,899 items donated. 

We are grateful for the massive contribution!

Looking ahead to 2025, with your help, we know can do better though with our target of donating over ¼ million mark.

Today’s message?

Big things start small. So get to starting!

Make it a GREAT week!

Leadership Lesson: We All Yearn 150 150 Bryce Henson

Leadership Lesson: We All Yearn

One truth I’ve learned about leadership over the years.

Deep down, we all yearn for a strong leader.

Someone to:

  • Guide us
  • Mentor us
  • Speak vision to us
  • Be our cheerleader
  • Hold us accountable
  • Create a roadmap
  • Demonstrate success
  • Show us the way

This is a factory installed in all of us humans.

The lesson today?

The first step in leadership is to be a follower.

To find someone to lead who can provide you with the above roadmap and more.

The next step is to then begin to lead ourselves.

Then once we are able to lead ourselves, those called have a duty, obligation, and responsibility to become the leader to others that we all yearn for.

Now go forth and lead; even if it’s just you!

[MM]: God is an Amazing Personal Trainer

 

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

This past weekend was fulfilling as my business partners, Bedros, Jay Redman and I put on a Legacy Tribe Meet-Up event.

Legacy Tribe is a stand-alone business development coaching program. It is also a program that introduces entrepreneurs to our Fit Body Boot Camp ownership opportunity.

Saturday’s meet-up was an action-packed day of presentations.

It was a great way to connect, learn, and share leadership business development strategies to grow the group’s income, impact, and legacy.

Bedros, founder of Fit Body, gave a great keynote on happiness and 1 thing he said struck me.

“God is an Amazing Personal Trainer.”

I was confused at first.

However,  it made sense once he elaborated. 

Most time people pray to God asking for success and strength to push through the hard things that life can bring.

But here’s the issue.

Upon asking for strength, many times as humans we are surprised & confused at the resistance he puts in our way as a response.

B’s question was to ask yourself this:

Should you really be surprised?

Think about it. 

If you were to ask your trainer for more strength, a leaner physique, visible abs, and bigger biceps.

Guess what?

Any good personal trainer is going to put weight, and resistance into your program; and not comfort (sugar, pizza, desserts) in your way.

After all, resistance is how we get stronger in the gym and in life.

My message today?

Adversity & resistance are your advantages.

Take the weight God puts in your way and use it to become stronger so that you can create more income, impact, and legacy!

Make it a GREAT week!

Leadership Lesson: Leadership is Elusive 150 150 Bryce Henson

Leadership Lesson: Leadership is Elusive

Leadership is Elusive.

It’s a lifelong pursuit.

Just when you think you have it, you realize you don’t.

Just when you think it’s impossible, you realize it’s attainable. 

The truth is this:

Sometimes you are ahead.

Sometimes you’re behind.

The race is long.

However, no matter where you are in the moment on your leadership journey. 

Continuing to acquire leadership skills is a worthwhile pursuit.

At the very least, to be a leader of self which humanity needs right now and always will.

So keep your head up, and keep going.

People are counting on you.

Onward!

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

On October 1, my wife Tatiana and I transferred our last Fit Body Boot Camp location in Mission Viejo, California to our friend and former Fit Body client Melissa.

The main reason was so I could spend even more time leading the Fit Body brand.

Taking a look back at the experience.

Fit Body ownership was a journey we started in November of 2012 with our first location.

At the time, we didn’t know what we were doing.

However, we knew we wanted to fulfill our mission of Inspiring Fitness and Changing Lives Every Day!

Fast forward 12 years, and it’s been quite the ride.

We learned and grew so much with the experience.

Then in 2018, Bedros, Founder of Fit Body, recruited me to lead the brand.

While our ownership chapter has ended, the new chapter of Fit Body’s growth will be unprecedented.

I’m grateful for you to be on this journey with our, Franchise Partners, coaches, and brand. 

Today’s message, I have included my farewell to our clients. 

I hope it inspires you to go after your dreams which is my message today.

As heaven knows, if I can do it.

YOU CAN TOO!

Leadership Lesson: It’s a powerful tool of influence 150 150 Bryce Henson

Leadership Lesson: It’s a powerful tool of influence

In German, the translation of the word “Leadership” has a negative connotation. 

This is different than here in the US where the word is typically looked on fondly.

I learned that last week when I interviewed my friends Dr. Dirk and Dr. Petra Frese on my CEO Show Podcast, who grew up on other sides of the Berlin Wall in West & East Germany in the 1960s.

Why does it have a negative connotation?

A man named Adolf Hitler.

Yes, he was a world-class leader.

It’s strange to hear him described that way, but it’s the truth.

Albeit, he was pure evil which is the 2nd truth. 

As such, he used this powerful tool of “leadership” to negatively influence the hearts & minds of the Germans in the 30’s and 40’s to murder millions of innocent people.

So my leadership lesson today is one of perspective.

Leadership is a tool, like money or energy.

With a positive direction, they can build beautiful things.

With a negative direction, they cause destruction. 

It’s the energy we put behind the tool that gives it meaning.

Today I share with you the reminder that Leadership is a powerful tool of influence.

I teach it because of the power.

However, my intent, like yours, is to use for the good.

Do so accordingly.

Onward.

[MM]: The World Needs Us Now More Than Ever

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

My brother Barrett, who is my Executive Director of Coaching for Fit Body and I did training in Scottsdale, Arizona a couple of weeks ago.

We were there to deliver for a friend of ours who is a mega social media influencer and entrepreneur.

Just before the training started, I realized I forgot to pack gum so went across the street to the gas station.

I haven’t been to a gas station in a couple of years since getting a Tesla Model 3. 

So I went to grab my gum and then scanned the store for Barrett’s fancy sparkling water. Lol 

For as long as the eye could see, the store was lined with sugar and processed foods. 

No exaggeration here.

That’s right.

The entire store was packed with the ingredients for a major health crisis.

Then it hit me.

In the words of RFK – we need to make America healthy again.

Why?

Chronic disease and obesity are rampant due to processed food and a lack of exercise.

Yes, the work we do here at Fit Body Boot Camp is meaningful.

Lots of people are counting on us.

The good news?

Fit Body’s mission is to Inspire Fitness and Change Lives.

The best part?

My team and I want you to join our mission.

After all, the world needs us now more than ever.

Make it a GREAT week and Happy Thanksgiving!
