Episode 5: Season 4 Episode 5- Rodrigo Alvira Isla- “Be Critical of People Who Speak in Absolutes”
Manage episode 379224139 series 1708735
In this week’s episode I get to have a really awesome conversation about finding secondary ways to make money as a coach with Rodrigo Alvira Isla. If you’ve ever had the “privilege” of getting stuck with me during one of my rants about this topic you already know how passionate I am about this topic and how important I think this is, not just for coaches, but for everyone in today’s financial climate. Throughout the nearly 40-minute discussion Rodrigo and I get into:
1) Being an international, the visa process, and some of the challenges of coming to work in The States
2) Some of the differences in basketball preparation between Spain and the US.
3) What were the driving factors behind Spaniardperformance and how it has helped him become a better coach.
4) Why many of the fears people have behind why they don’t post content, or build an online product may be self-imposed.
5) Working with athletes on an online training program, steps you can make to make it scalable, and what is a reasonable time commitment to each athlete in his mind.
I cannot thank Rodrigo enough for being so open to sharing, not just his voyage, but also some ways that coaches can use platforms we all have to find a second source of income. He’s putting out awesome content with his business on Instagram, so make sure you give him a follow at @spaniardperformance. Even if you don’t speak Spanish, he’s providing a great template (how he’s doing things) as to how you can build, and scale, an online business as a coach.
If you found value in the show it would be a huge help to us if you could do me three favors: first, as with all all our content, please feel share this with a colleague you think could find value in the show. Second, if you haven’t please subscribe to the show on your favorite podcast player, and lastly if you could leave us a 5 star review on that players I would greatly appreciate it.
