It's how we balance our emotions and manage those emotions when they come up in a way that allows us to communicate effectively with others and to communicate with ourselves. It's about equipping young people with self-talk. That means equipping them with the language that they can use to better direct their thoughts and their mind to accomplish their goals and their aims.
And lastly, we equip them with the systems. That means for us, the tools, the time management and the organization strategies to not just work hard in life, but to work smart. And when we combine all these different areas that we work with our teens on, what we find is that they form the habits early in life that allows them to achieve their goals later in life and even right now.
And so our passion is to equip as many young people across this world as we can. And we're doing pretty good so far. We've got teens in seven different countries who have been through our coaching program to date, We've worked with over 400 teens, and we would love to be able to serve you as well. Here's how it works. If you want to investigate coaching, we start with a parent consultation.
That's a free call to discuss your students' particular needs and our program details. We work with Olympic athletes all the way down to teens that are just struggling to motivate themselves to do the daily work necessary in their class. So wherever your teen is, we'll meet them where they are and get them to the next level. And that starts with a parent consultation with you.
A student planning session, that's the next step. If we agree that the value that coaching can bring matches your team, then we will move to a student planning session. It's basically a free one-on-one coaching session with your team. And that is designed to support them, but it's also designed to ask a lot of questions to help explore whether or not they want to be coached.
Because at the end of the day, they ultimately have to be the one that pulls the trigger. And then after your student planning session, we get them paired with the right coach for them. We have an amazing staff of coaches from ex-division one athletes, people who've come from the Ivy League system.
We have coaches who have come from entrepreneurial backgrounds and acting backgrounds, so we can pair them with the right fit for them. And then once they partner with their coach, they'll benefit from two coaching sessions a month to really zone in on their personal growth and their skill development.
So if you're ready to give your student the tools they need to be successful, click the link in the show notes for more information and to make sure you can schedule your free parent consultation today.
Welcome back Action Catalyst listeners. This is Overtime with Outland. Today we'll be tackling episode 462 with Chris Hunter, founder of 4Loco, Koya, and Not Your Father's Root Beer. Four principles that came out of this interview that I thought would be valuable here in our Overtime episode. Number one, when going into business, always understand your exit at the beginning.
When Chris and his partner started 4Loco, they made most decisions as simple majority rules. And since they were all friends, they all assumed that most of them would be in agreement. But time changes, businesses change, and people change. And they found out that having such a loose business arrangement was setting them up for disaster.
So as Stephen Covey always said, begin with the end in mind with business partnerships. Number two, there is no cookie cutter boilerplate job description for a founder or CEO. When Chris was younger, he always thought the role of the founder meant one set thing, but each person brings a different set of skills to the table and can make better or worse use of their time in different ways.
But Chris, it's not day-to-day operations. It's forming new partnerships and relationships, which brings us to point number three. In sales, there are hunters and there are gatherers. Hunters love to go out and create new relationships, strike new deals, explore new territory. Gatherers like to optimize relationships they already have, increase efficiencies, and work with what they've got.
Chris sees himself as a hunter, and the fact that it's also his last name is not lost on him. Finally, Chris says it's important to zero in on the true value of your product. What about your product do people really want? Chris's latest company, Koya, offers delicious, refrigerated, ready-to-drink, plant-based protein.
And Chris believed the biggest selling points were that it was delicious and plant-based. But really, it was the ready-to-drink part that customers cared most about. So they branched out from selling and offering refrigerated products into offering shelf-stable drinks and powdered mixes. By understanding what their customers valued most in their product, they were able to expand.

Today's guest is Chris Hunter, the founder of several successful beverage brands, including 4Loco and Not Your Father's Root Beer. His new memoir, Blackout Punch, An Entrepreneur's Journey from Chaos to Clarity, tells the story. How are you?
Yeah, so you're hailing from Miami right now, but where did you grow up?
I can't imagine. We're going to talk about your whole successful commercial enterprises. But I'm always kind of curious. Usually... You know, high school or even a young recent graduate isn't necessarily thinking like, man, I'm going to start all these amazing beverage companies. I got to know what were you on the track to do or what were you thinking you were going to do?
I got to pay the bills. That's amazing. And so was that then the person that you ended up with in terms of working on this, on For Loco or-
What are some of the walls and challenges that you didn't expect in growing this thing?
