Michael Molthan aka M2 The ROCK sits down with Mario Canon

Hi Mario, thanks for joining us today. Can you open up about a risk you’ve taken – what it was like taking that risk, why you took the risk and how it turned out?
One of the biggest risks I've ever took was putting my job I had for 6 years after recently being promoted. I was an assistant manager at cellphone company. I was working full time plus overtime and pursuing my music career. I had recently gotten into fitness as well so for the past couple years I had been sculpting my body. I was exceptionally well at my job, so I had a lot of repeat customers. One of them owned a gym franchise and told me I was wasting my talents celling phones, and I should work for myself being a personal trainer. He said it would free up my time for creativity and it would be fulfilling. I asked, “how much do they make?” He said, “how much do you want to make?”. It was scariest thing I ever did. I had two kids young and major bills at the same time how was I going to make this work? That first week training I blew up! My old job even called me back offering more money and a promotion, but I was enjoying my freedom. I was able to invest more into my music career and eventually ended up on television as well! A few years as a trainer and I bought the gym franchise!
