As a trainer, coach, or even person who is well versed in fitness, I am sure you can think back to specific moments in your lives when strangers, friends, and even loved ones have asked you to provide for them something you earn a living off of. We discussed this topic on where we most commonly see this and how to navigate around it. It is impossible to ask people to pay for a service you provide for free on your Instagram and difficult to say no to people who are in your family when they ask for a freebie. Enjoy this one!
