Real stories from real entrepreneurs. How they started, what they faced, and what they learned.
In this episode, we sit down with Stefanos Spiliotis—a Greek-American content creator, FIU student, and aspiring online personal trainer—to discuss the cultural shift of moving from Athens to Miami and building a lifestyle around discipline. Stefanos shares his journey from working in his father’s water sports business in Greece to finding his obsession with fitness and entrepreneurship in the U.S.
From navigating the differences between the Greek and American education systems to the reality of building a following by ”nicheing down,” Stefanos details the mindset required to stay consistent in a fast-paced world. We dive into the ”Blue Zones” of Greece, the importance of faith in personal development, and why hybrid training (balancing lifting with endurance) is the key to long-term health.
Whether you are looking to improve your physical health, start your own content journey, or understand the power of cultural adaptability, this episode provides a fresh perspective on what it means to show up every day.
What to Expect:
– Cultural Crossroads: The transition from the capital of Greece to Miami at 16, and how the American ”extracurricular” system sparked his entrepreneurial drive.
– The Hybrid Athlete: Why Stefanos is pivotting to a Half Ironman split and his philosophy on ”Hybrid Physics”—balancing muscle mass with cardiovascular health and flexibility.
– The Content Niche: Why he chose to target a Greek-speaking audience while living in Miami, and the ”Million View” lesson on why consistency beats quality in the early stages.
– Discipline & Fasting: Insights from his 36-hour fast and the 75 Hard challenge, and how keeping promises to yourself is the ultimate foundation for self-confidence.
