        <itunes:summary>Are you a Christ following Coach in Fitness, Sports, or Wellness and want to scale your expertise online and make $12k&#43; take home per month? Do you want to achieve time, financial, and location freedom for your family? Thats what I help other people just like you do, everyday and thats just the start. Why?

Because I firmly KNOW and BELIEVE everyone was uniquely created for a specific purpose to serve the Kingdom of God, and each and every person was equipped with unique skills, talents, and gifts to help other people thrive in life.

And there is opportunity EVERYDAY to take that, and bring it to the world online to help as many people as God puts in front of you.

This is the podcast for ambitious, hungry, kingdom driven coaches who want to step fully into the calling God has for them, serve others in the highest way, and achieve time, financial, &amp; location freedom.

I&#39;m Derek Ward, your host, motivator, coach, a devoted husband and father of two boys. I have been an entrepreneur for over 13 years, where I built in person coaching programs, led camps, and built a brick and mortar gym to over $500,000 in annual gross revenue in 16 months.

I have battle tested experience, hard fought battles, &amp; extreme faith through taking action. God has led me on an amazing journey so far and I am devoted to serving Him MOST and do that through helping as many people as possible use their coaching potential and help change lives.

I work with sport coaches, fitness trainers, life coaches, mindset coaches, gym owners, marriage therapists and more, pushing them to serve others by overdelivering and scale their business.

In this show you are going to get a No Fluff, Straight to the point, blue collar approach to business where we are action takers and not excuse makers.

I will cover topics such as: Sales, Marketing, Content, Offers, Mindset, Habits, Standards, Marriage, Wealth, Finance, and many other things

Subscribe and follow the podcast to serve the Kingdom &amp; Build your Dream.</itunes:summary>
