The Hard Right Over The Easy Wrong (w/ Nick Bare)

In The Booth with Shawn Booth

In this episode, Shawn has a conversation with Nick Bare, the founder of BPN supplements. Nick's journey began with a small loan, and he started building his supplement company in his dorm room over a decade ago. He is not only a successful entrepreneur but also a motivational hybrid athlete, a US Army veteran, and has created a massive online community. Recently, he reached 1 million subscribers on YouTube by inspiring others through his own accomplishments of challenging goals.

During the episode, Nick shares his experience participating in a grueling "last man standing" backyard ultra marathon, where he pushed himself to run an incredible 100 miles. He discusses the sources of his motivation and emphasizes the importance of allowing one's life purpose to evolve and change. Nick encourages listeners to be open to foreclosing on identities they may have previously held and highlights the significance of having a North Star, a clear vision of where one wants to go in life.
He explains how his priorities in business have shifted due to the influence of family and why he decided to step down as CEO. Furthermore, Nick expresses his deep love for running, explaining that it provides him with much more than just a physical experience.
For beginners who struggle to start working out due to mental hurdles, Nick provides valuable advice and insights. He also distinguishes between being all in and being all consumed in various aspects of life. The episode covers topics such as disordered eating, habit stacking, and delves into the true meaning behind Nick's motto "go one more"!
