About this listen

The mission of Ripped Open is to rip open the conversations no one else is having — around training, coaching, business, leadership, and identity. This show is for the ones already doing the work — the athletes chasing something bigger than miles, the coaches tired of blending in, the high-performers who know they’re built for greatness. Each episode will leave you feeling fired up, called out (in the best way), and grounded in what really matters — not just how fast you move, but how boldly you lead. Let’s go deeper. Let’s get stronger. Let’s lead louder — together.Karina Ripps Economics Leadership Management & Leadership

  • What to Do When a Launch Isn't Landing
    Jan 2 2026

    After 12 days of promoting a free masterclass and only 3 people signing up… I had a choice.


    Finish what I started because I’m “a finisher.” Or do the thing that actually built my strongest year in business: look at the data and pivot.


    So that’s what this episode is about.


    This is a real-time breakdown of:

    • Why finishing isn’t always the flex we think it is

    • How to decide when something isn’t landing (even if you want it to)

    • What actually moved the needle in my business this year

    • Why being willing to change direction is the skill that separates successful CEOs from people just staying busy

    If you’re a health or fitness coach who keeps “doing the right things” without the results to match, or knows deep down something needs to shift, but you’re afraid to look...


    This episode is for you!

  • How Consistent $10K Months Actually Happen
    Dec 26 2025

    Almost everyone says they want $10K months.


    Very few people actually build a business that can hold them without paid ads, a team, or endless 1:1s.


    In this episode, I’m breaking down what actually creates consistent $10K+ months...and it’s not mindset journaling, affirmations, or waiting to feel confident.


    I’m sharing:

    • Why “thinking your way there” keeps most coaches stuck
    • The decisions that actually shifted my income (even when they felt uncomfortable)
    • What the version of you making consistent $10K months does differently on a daily basis
    • Why confidence is a byproduct of action — not the prerequisite
    • And the one question I come back to whenever I feel stuck or hesitant to move


    This is for health & fitness coaches who are done dabbling, done overthinking, and ready to build a business that feels stable, intentional, and actually sustainable.

  • Why I Stopped Planning My Business by the Year and Started Planning It by the Month
    Dec 19 2025

    In this episode, I break down why I stopped planning my business by the year and started planning it one month at a time — and how that single shift is what finally allowed me to build my highest 6-figure year yet, without defaulting to endless 1:1s or burning myself into the ground.


    We talk about:• why long-term planning can actually create MORE chaos• the moment I realized I had too many competing priorities• how choosing ONE monthly focus can bring clarity, momentum, and calm inside your business• why this approach works especially well for health & fitness coaches


    This isn’t about doing less because you don’t care.It’s about building on purpose instead of panicking every month.


    If your business feels noisy, scattered, or heavier than it needs to be — this episode is for you.
