Y’all,

Ever watched a brand shine and wondered, “What's cooking behind those doors?” 

Let's admit it, we all love a good story, especially when it's about passion and perseverance.

In EPISODE 572, we pull back the curtain on SLT and Stretch*d, guided by none other than Amanda Freeman.

SLT might be that hip Pilates trend in NYC, but behind those shiny lights? There's heart, hustle, and a sprinkle of “Eureka!” moments. 

Here’s what we’ll uncover:

  • SLT's Rising Star Moment: Not just a fleeting NYC trend, but a movement!
  • The Dream Weaver: From humble beginnings to high-flying success.
  • Navigating the Acquisition Maze: Amanda's candid tales of challenges and triumphs.
  • To Franchise or Not? Amanda's personal take might surprise you!
  • COVID's Twist: Adapt, pivot, shine – the SLT way.
  • All About the Team: Crafting a dream team? Amanda's got some gold nuggets to share.

It felt like catching up with an old friend, sharing stories, inspiration, and life lessons.

Curiosity piqued? Grab your fave beverage, snuggle up, and hit play on EPISODE 572

Let's journey through SLT's magic, together.

With grit and gratitude,

Lisé
