The Story
Justin Lukasavige
I’m Justin Lukasavige. I considered hiring someone to write this for me to make it sound good but that’s not what I’m about. I’m just like you and I like to do business with real people.
I don’t have a background involving classes that culminate in a degree that I use every day. I studied commercial aviation in college and immediately become an instructor and then an airline pilot.
I agree, that’s not really useful to you, is it?
I spent over seven years flying passengers around the US, Canada and the Caribbean before turning what I was really excited about (helping you!) into a business that would support my family. I had no clue what a coach was, but I knew that my job as an airline captain wasn’t how I wanted to help people.
I trained with Dave Ramsey and his team early in 2006 and immediately launched Lukas Coaching. I had very little business experience but there was no way I was going to let that stand in the way of helping people.
Lukas Coaching plateaued in growth 12 months after launching it and, after trying a few things, still couldn’t figure out how to make it grow enough to replace my income at the airline. It would have been a shame if I couldn’t make it work back then because hundreds of people wouldn’t have been able to benefit. But I hired coaches, took classes, read books…and I made it work.
I grew so rapidly that other businesses asked me how they could do it too. Thus began my work helping people start and grow a business they really cared about. Some of them have gone on to impact the world.
Now I spend my time doing what I love. I create audio and video for our community. I speak around the world, remotely and in person, and I’ve worked with clients around the globe .
Above all else I’m a husband to Christine and a dad to Ava, Amanda and Brie. They’re why I do what I do and I wouldn’t trade it for the world.
Send me an email with your story. If you’re stuck I’d love to see if I can help.
