Episode 106: Chris McKleroy | Amplifying Sound and Life Goals with Innovation and Mindful Work

Life Athletes, hello and to season 2 of the Life Athletics podcast! Your support throughout the entire season 1 and the past 5 episodes of season 2 has been nothing short of amazing!

 

On today’s episode, it’s my pleasure to have on the show the co-founder of Boombotix, Chris McKleroy. Boombotix is a company that aims to provide its consumers the best portable speaker experience.

 

Chris currently lives between San Francisco and Bali - and continuously strives to provide a product that will fit the lifestyles of people today. In this case, Boombotix provides speakers that can be latched on to bikes and becomes a substitute for headphones.

 

"Sometimes the best way to move forward is just to disconnect from the past." Tweet this!

 

We dig deeper into how he and his co-founders came up with the idea of Boombotix, as well as the struggles and obstacles they encountered during the early years of the business. Chris tells me one thing: it wasn’t easy. But because of his desire to persevere and arrive at a solution, they were able to make it work.
