🧩 Episode Summary
In this episode of the Brotherhood Beyond Business Podcast, Trev Warnke talks with Danny Mullen, co-owner of Raw Fitness, Level Up, and The Mastermind Program.
Danny shares his journey of owning a gym in Metro Detroit for nearly eight years and his long-standing involvement in mastermind groups, inspired by Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich. He explains how intimate, small-group settings foster stronger relationships, deeper accountability, and more effective support than larger, impersonal masterminds.
He highlights the diversity of perspectives inside mastermind groups — how members’ varied backgrounds provide better solutions, sharper prioritization, and expanded confidence. Danny also emphasizes the unique personal connection: members genuinely care about each other’s success and provide unbiased feedback with no hidden agenda.
Beyond business, these groups support holistic development — balancing entrepreneurial demands with mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. From axe throwing to Top Golf, Danny recalls how camaraderie and fun strengthen bonds while keeping accountability alive.
The conversation closes with a call to action: entrepreneurs who feel stuck, burned out, or isolated should consider joining a mastermind. The right group can be a game-changer for business results, confidence, and overall life fulfillment.
