I have a secret list of things I want to accomplish before I die.
I call it my Dream List.
I don’t announce or really share these as they are my deepest most unapologetic desires and I choose to work towards them silently, without anyone’s opinions distracting me from my goals.
But today…it’s time to share because one of the things on my Dream List is getting checked off!!! Honestly, I thought I was about 5-7 years away but, here we are, a little early.
When I got the call from @How I Built This Podcasts (my fave podcast everrrr) I DIED. I was SCREAMING.
I’ve been listening to @Guy Raz and his soothing voice since the beginning of time, learning from some of the most inspiring entrepreneurs in the world! It has ALWAYS been a dream of mine to be on his podcast. My goal was to do something so impactful that Guy would find my story worthy enough of sharing amongst his other incredible leaders and innovators.
Many of you know me from the free workout videos I’ve uploaded to YouTube over the past 13 years. But what you don’t know is that I spend about 95% of my day in product design, development and running the business. Yes, fitness will always be a part of my being, but entrepreneurship and creation is the thrill that keeps me wild with ideas. It is what keeps me problem solving and sketching and prototyping and testing! I LIVE for it.
I got the chance to talk to Guy about my backstory, where I am now, and my hopes for the future. I’m so not even close to where I want to be but I hope this interview inspires you to follow your passion – no matter if no one believes in you. You need to give yourself the 100% chance to succeed or else you’ll always live a life of “what if”? I’d rather try and fail hard than look back and wished I could have.
Have a listen to my episode and let me know the biggest lesson you learned.

You did an amazing choice for choosing this career! Your inspiring others to be healthy and make their own decisions!
I’m so happy for you! I’m glad you achieved so much.

I feel so personally proud of how far you have come!!
Thank you so much ❤️
im so happy for you! thats amazing! keep following your dreams and dont give up! ily! <3
I really relate with this, I am a college junior and this was my first year that I transferred schools and switched majors because I was so miserable before. Hopefully things work out well
You’re amazing, it’s unfortunate not all of us can dig deep enough to feel we can do the same.
I’m so proud of you !!!
Go on you are doing excellent 😊👍
Cassey, you’re such an inspiration to me. My childhood dream is the same as you to become a designer and when I was young I even drew how my future store would look. But now I am studying footwear engineering and blaming myself everyday for choosing it. I am so happy for you that you do what you like now!
Too many times have I been burnt by the opinions of others regarding my dreams and desires. Working towards them silently is a better way to go and that I shall do! I can’t wait to achieve my dreams and I’m happy that yours are coming true. Thanks for sparking joy into my life once more:)
So proud of you . You followed your dreams and look at were u are at congratulations 🎉❤️☺️

She is too me too! 😀
I went to target 2 days ago and I found your brand. Have an a amazing day I’m so proud of you!
So proud of you Cassey! Shoot, it gives *me* a little jolt of happiness when I’m at Target & see your stuff on display. You deserve every ounce of success you’ve achieved & there’ll be plenty more to come.
Re: your parents’ ideas when you were in school: Have you seen some of the YT videos from Two Set Violin and some others re: parental expectations? Hilarious! And it shows you weren’t alone, by a long shot. So many more paths in life than anyone ever imagines, and many ways to happiness and making a difference in the world.
You inspire me and I am so proud of what you have done! You achieved your dream and worked hard and THAT is what matters. 🙌🏻😊
I love how much you’ve improved and i think you should be whatever you want and don’t let people bring you down or telly you what to do, you are amazing just the way you are and if you had done exactly what your parents wanted you to do then you would be here right now!! So prouddddd!!
This gives me such inspiration to find what I love and pursue it!!!
Just listened to your interview!!! Freaking loved it and the inspiration and determination over these last 13 years astounds me. Bravo!
