➡️ About The Guest

Carl Daikeler is a transformative figure in the global wellness industry who revolutionized home fitness as the co-founder and CEO of Beachbody, which he scaled from a startup in 1998 to a $2.3B public company (NYSE: BODY) through a SPAC merger in 2021. Under his leadership, Beachbody has generated over $4 billion in revenue, served more than 23 million customers, and built a digital streaming empire with 2.6M+ subscribers accessing 1,500+ workout programs.

His flagship programs have achieved legendary status: P90X surpassed $1 billion in sales, while Shakeology has sold over 500 million servings. Daikeler's innovative Coach network has grown to 400,000+ members. Through his vision of democratizing fitness, Daikeler transformed Beachbody from a DVD-based business into a digital fitness pioneer, launching Beachbody On Demand years before the streaming fitness boom and positioning the company as a dominant player in the $4.5 trillion global wellness market.
