01. How it Began - Bjoern Keune, Pete Byrne & Rene Schwarzgruber

Aligned Founder

“A completely new approach to achieving business success”.

This episode is a conversation between Bjoern, Pete & Rene - the 3 co-hosts of this podcast, & co-founders of the personal development company ReallyAlign.

In the conversation, they dive into their personal backstories, and the bizarre series of events that brought the 3 of them from different life backgrounds to form a company together.

Bjoern Keune is a successful entrepreneur & investor. He was the co-founder, CEO & executive chair of Invincible Brands, which grew from 0 to 100m in sales in 5 years. After exiting the company & finally achieving the business success he always believed would bring him happiness in life, he found the payoff to be only temporary. It was through the discovery of the technique of “Breath Repatterning” in combination with coaching that allowed him to begin understanding what truly mattered to him and who he really is - beyond the success.

Rene Schwarzgruber is a Breathwork facilitator & coach from Austria, based in Berlin. After leaving his travel company that he had co-founded & ran for 12 years, Breathwork gave Rene a second start at life & opened many new doors that he never even realised were there. He now helps others who feel stuck in life to have similar breakthroughs as he did.

Pete Byrne is a Facilitator/coach & professional musician who is based between Bali & Europe. He has been running retreats & workshops in the personal development space for over 3 years, and helps high performing people make the necessary changes so they can live a life that is full of success, while also being balanced & aligned with their core values.

In this episode, the 3 of them discuss:

• Who they are & a bit about their personal development journeys
• How a retreat in Greece changed Bjoern’s life
• Why pushing for a “Big experience” is not always the answer
• How the company ReallyAlign came to be formed & their vision
• Ethics & integrity while selling personal development work
• A window into their recent Founder’s retreat in Ibiza
• The main challenges they see founders & entrepreneurs face
• Why combining Breathwork with coaching is a powerful tool
• Bjoern’s new non-negotiable for all of his investments
