Curious to know - does the Western market adopt solutions like this very easily ? Because atleast in India (or Asia), i see my parents and lot of older folk being highly resistant to adopting management solutions.

Is this worldwide ? Can I gift it to my dad in india ?
This looks very good! congratulations. Curious to know - does the Western market adopt solutions like this very easily ?

As you mentioned, this is not necessarily a technological solution, but rather one of how we create the right culture and environment for our members to succeed.
Congrats James! This would indeed make a great last-minute father’s Day gift. Good timing on the launch!
Really great idea and well executed from what I can see. Just wondering about the business model: how often do your coaches interact with your customers? It seems that at a ~$10/month fee you wouldn't be able to afford too much of their time per customer.. Maybe 5 minutes per month at most (assuming $75/hr and deducting payment fees etc) ? Or am I missing something?
