Josh says his goal is “to pay forward what I have learned over all these years, from education to coaching to business—the successes and failures. I hope that my experience and help can instill confidence in others that their dreams are attainable.”

Our Vision

The Two-Brain Business Vision: A network of successful, independent leaders who mentor fitness business owners to success. We use experience, not opinion; data and proof, not random ideas.

We move entrepreneurs through four distinct phases on their journey to success: Founder, Farmer, Tinker and Thief. We have defined exactly what makes an entrepreneur successful in each phase of our program.

We are committed to generating measurable results for fitness professionals so they can help their clients.

Our values guide our actions and the actions of people who work with us.

Values

Base Decisions on Evidence

We focus on objective evidence to drive our actions. When we aren’t sure, we look for ways to collect the evidence from someone who has it or from tests. We create measurable results for our clients by living this value.

Lead Through Positivity

We help people first. We teach this concept to our clients and demonstrate it in our operations. We celebrate our clients and build them up, along with the people who work with and around us. We know that positive leadership and actions will create better results and relationships.

Take Ownership

We will take initiative to get positive results because we care deeply about the outcome. We follow through and don’t wait for others to act. We are accountable for the results of our actions. "Ownership" doesn’t mean you must resolve all issues on your own. You might need help from others and would be wise to seek it.

Pursue Personal Growth

We are a mentorship company, and we demonstrate our commitment to personal growth through our actions. We are never done learning and always seek to improve ourselves.
