In this episode of the Cheer Biz Podcast, host Dan Cotton explores the complex balance between freedom of speech and business ownership. While the Constitution protects free expression, business owners quickly learn that words carry consequences when customers, staff, and the public are watching.
Dan shares real experiences from his time in law enforcement and as a gym owner, explaining why business leaders don’t truly have unlimited freedom to say whatever they want online. From social media posts that caused professional fallout to the realities of customer perception, this conversation is a powerful reminder that what you say impacts how people choose to spend their money.
If you’ve ever wondered how outspoken you should be about politics, faith, or social issues while running a gym, this episode will help you understand the risks, the responsibilities, and the importance of choosing your words strategically as a business owner.
