What's a faster pace, racecar or running a business? Dion von Moltke retired from his passion of being a professional racecar driver to race his way through the startup world, launching Blayze, a pro to amateur coaching platform.
This week hosts Tim Ryan and Zack Miller sit down with Dion von Moltke, Co-Founder at BLAYZE & professional racecar driver, to discuss the power of 1 on 1 coaching and the importance of working with GREAT coaches. Startups are challenging, but are they more challenging than racing professionally?

About Dion von Moltke & BLAYZE
Dion von Moltke is a Co-Founder at BLAYZE, Professional Racecar Driver, 24 Hours of Daytona Winner, 2x Sebring 12 Hour Winner, Public Speaker, and Coach. He helped found Blayze in 2019. “Blayze is a virtual 1 on 1 coaching platform that connects amateur athletes with professional coaches. Using Blayze, those athletes can learn personally from pro coaches anytime, from anywhere and for up to 95% less.
At Blayze, we use data to help athletes connect with their perfect coach matched to their learning styles, age, and current skill level. From there, the athlete will hop on an intro call with their coach so they can get to know one another. After the call, the athletes will get a custom individual training plan from their coach every week, personalized video analysis coaching sessions, monthly check-ins with their coach, and much more.
Blayze is the first platform that truly replicates the 1 to 1 relationship professional athletes get with their coaches in a way that is accessible and affordable for all.”
