NEW EPISODE OF THE IMAGINE MOORE PODCAST!

What happens when you open a fitness studio and discover that the most important thing you're building isn't the business it's the people?

This week, I'm sitting down with my friend Lori West, owner of Pure Barre Southern Pines, as she celebrates an amazing milestone: 10 YEARS in business! 🎉

We talk about how she got started, surviving the early years of business ownership (and COVID!), faith and leadership, the importance of giving back, and the incredible community that has grown around Pure Barre Southern Pines.

And yes, we also talk about that person sitting in her car outside the studio wondering if she's actually brave enough to walk through the door.

Lori has spent ten years raising the barre...not just in fitness, but in the way a local business can support and strengthen its community.

Tune in to The Imagine Moore Podcast and hear Lori's story. It's a good one! imaginemoorepodcast25.podbean.com/

You'll also hear how 64 local churches, businesses, volunteers, and community partners are working together to strengthen our community ... one neighbor at a time.

"We meet you where you are." It's a simple phrase, but for Janet Galloway and Emily Isom, it's much more than a philosophy. It's how they approach their clients, their business, and one another. What happens when a mother and daughter build a business together? For Janet and Emily, it starts with tr...

Don't Miss Monday's Episode of The Imagine More Podcast!
Some conversations stay with you long after the microphones are turned off... and this is one of them.
This Monday, July 20, join me as I sit down with Janet Galloway and Emily Isom, an inspiring mother-daughter team who prove that successful businesses are built on trust, honest conversations, and putting people first.

Together we talk about:
$ Building a family business
$ Embracing technology without losing the personal touch
$ Leading and empowering women
$ Setting healthy boundaries
$ Serving others with compassion
$ And creating a legacy that lasts far beyond the office

One of my favorite takeaways from our conversation was their simple philosophy:
"We meet you where you are."

You'll also hear these powerful reminders:
"We go farther, longer together than we do alone." – Janet Galloway
"The thing that you are today, you are not tomorrow. The thing that you were yesterday, you're just trying to learn from." – Emily Isom

This episode is full of wisdom, laughter, and encouragement for anyone building a business, working with family, leading others, or simply trying to become the best version of themselves.

The episode drops first thing Monday morning, July 20!
