WELL RUN: A Podcast for Fitness Owners Who Care About People AND Profit.
WELL RUN: A Podcast for Fitness Owners Who Care About People AND Profit
WELL RUN is for owners and leaders of gyms, wellness clubs, spas and studios who want clarity they can trust and strategies that actually match the weight of responsibility they’re carrying.
Hosted by Annie Adragna, a 25-year fitness industry leader and ICF certified coach who has spent her career turning vision into real results, each short episode gives you a direct, honest look at what truly moves a business forward. No theatrics. Just lived experience and the kind of insight you only get from someone who has been responsible for people, culture and revenue at the highest level.
We're digging into topics like:
• Build leadership teams that lead with presence and performance
• Design systems that create steadiness and strengthen profitability
• Increase member loyalty with thoughtful, high touch experiences
• Recruit executives who elevate your culture instead of draining it
• Create people first environments where teams grow and business grows with them
A well run business does more than succeed. It becomes one others look to for what is possible.

How Strong Leaders Appreciate Their Teams During the Holidays
The holidays have a way of revealing everything your team already feels. When leaders get intentional about appreciation during this season performance rises stress levels stabilize and the member experience gets stronger.
In this short episode I break down five ways to appreciate your team that go beyond the usual card and cookie tray. These approaches work because they speak to different appreciation styles on your team and they take less time than you think.
You will hear
• How to give recognition that actually lands
• Why removing a burden can be more impactful than giving a gift
• The difference between thoughtful gifting and performative gifting
• How presence changes the emotional climate of your club
• The role of future focused appreciation in retention
If gifting stresses you out or you end up buying the same thing every year I created a gift guide to make this simple. It is curated for leaders in fitness wellness and hospitality who want to give something elevated without wasting hours searching.
