One More Rep, One More Try – With Carson from Alchemy Training

Welcome back to The Grand Valli Experience — where creative empowerment, local talent, and business experience collide. In this episode, I sit down with my friend Carson, founder of Alchemy Training, to talk about how a $5 fitness idea turned into a growing business rooted in purpose, self-doubt, and discipline. From being a college athlete and coach to launching a training platform for athletes and everyday people alike, Carson shares how belief, vulnerability, and "one more rep" can change everything — in fitness, in life, and in business. We talk about the evolution of professional ambition, the power of starting small, the myth of perfectionism, and why Grand Junction is more than a place — it’s part of the process. Whether you’re chasing your goals, starting your own business, or learning how to stay consistent in a chaotic season, this one’s for you. It’s raw, real, and reminds us that building anything meaningful—fitness or otherwise—takes time, trust, and the decision to just keep going. 🔗 Connect with Carson: Follow her on Instagram: Alchemy With Carson [https://www.instagram.com/alchemywithcarson/] Check out her $5 workouts: $5 Workout Subscription [https://morethanaverage.gumroad.com/l/alchemy5subscription] 🎥 Watch & Follow GrandValli: GrandValli - YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/@GrandValli] GrandValli (@grandvalli) • Instagram photos and videos [https://www.instagram.com/grandvalli/] Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/people/GrandValli-Marketplace/61550037465137/] ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
