In this episode of Get on Track, Jim Adams is joined by entrepreneur and performance strategist Alex Khun for a raw, inspiring conversation about the true drivers behind sustainable business growth. Drawing from over 14 years of experience, Alex opens up about the intersection of personal development, leadership, and long-term entrepreneurship.

If you're navigating the messy middle of business—the 3 to 5 million dollar range—or feeling the grind of growth without joy, this episode will speak to you. Together, Jim and Alex unpack the mental shifts, strategic subtractions, and relationship clarity required to build something meaningful—and stay in the game.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

• The messy middle of entrepreneurship – Alex breaks down what happens after proof of concept and why getting to 3–5M isn’t the finish line—it’s the start of a new challenge.
• Endurance vs. sprinting – Learn how elite athletes and successful entrepreneurs both rely on pacing, strategy, and subtraction—not just more hustle.
• Business is personal – Alex shares why business growth is always a reflection of personal growth and how inner clarity impacts outer results.
• Presence in sales – Discover the one simple skill that transforms sales performance: being fully present with your prospect.
• The lost art of loyalty – Why long-term team success isn't built on perks, but on honesty, empathy, and being in it together.
• Subtraction > addition – Hear how removing people, offers, or systems can unlock more growth than adding new layers.
• The power of vulnerability in leadership – Alex talks about redefining strength in business and why men modeling vulnerability is a game changer.
• Designing a life you don’t need to retire from – Alex explains why creating balance now is worth more than sprinting toward burnout.
• What really makes someone magnetic – A lawyer’s insight on the one quality all A-listers share—and how to cultivate it.
