Inside Solidcore Founder Anne Mahlum's $15,000,000 Home

A luxury home show my name is and now I'm and I'm the founder of solid core and I'm Brett Eaton, I'm a high performance coach and keynote speaker come check out our House says it was founded in 2013 solid core has taken America by storm. In essence, it is athletic Pilates and it's the hardest workout that you've never done to someone taking their first solid core class, I would tell them get ready, it's so amazing and so intense in 2023 and sold solid core for about a 100 million dollars is what my shares are worth in 2023. There's a lot before solid card actually started and built a nonprofit across the country, it's called back on my feet, the national nonprofit helps people experiencing homelessness get on a running track. We thought we could change the direction of their life over 700 times of helping people get employment through our program, you might be feeling like maybe if I just wait the perfect time will come so I work with people to help them create the consistency and self-discipline they need to play life at the highest level. So this is our for you as you can see it's pretty open and colorful and we wanted to have the element like inside and outside so it really flows and you'll see some big pieces of art up here, this is our favorite artist, his name is Angela a party we have big walls so we commission both of these pieces. I love the colors I think it's very Miami and very eclectic and you can just stare at that piece of art as so this table is this piece of art for minutes and just sort of have fun exploring whatever you see so you'll see in this one you see the brackets which is the solid for a logo and then you'll see some dates on the top right which is when Brett and I got married and then the top left is when Brett and I met and then on this one that we have the blue Bentley which is my car and then we put our initials on the bottom so we want a little bit of personalization and then you'll see right here just our table again super colorful because we are in Miami a little personal touch here with the dates and tell our anniversary, a little picture and then of course just a ton of flowers and Brett and I are both entrepreneurs so of course we have to have a Buddha that says trust your crazy ideas. Let's go check out the living room in the dining room. So this is our dining room as you can see also very colorful I feel like so often Miami houses are so white and beige and I wanted people to have an experience and we're having dinner. So you can see the light. These came from Israel it took forever to get here, but they're so unique and beautiful and add so much color. I'm also a huge fan of wallpaper because you can change it whenever you want to but also add a little bit of life and uniqueness to the space and then the photos actually behind you are also wallpaper I just love the print so much and so we thought that we would frame it to really sort of complete this dining space here again very pink and very Miami, but that's that's my style. So if you take a look over here again the color scheme kind of continues here. We did go with some white couches to balance some of the colors you can see another piece of amazing art here from a local Miami artist huge ceilings which really makes us feel open most of the time with for hosting we're having dinner over there and then we all just come and connect and chat over here with a glass of wine or glass of kombucha and then this feature, I love since we're in Miami we really don't need an indoor fireplace, but this is a steam fireplace, it doesn't have a lot of heat coming out of it, but just a pretty pretty was seen we can change the colors and of course this huge piece of marble I still have no idea how that thing up there like that but thankfully it is and then some again what elements on the side here with some beautiful chandeliers hanging in the middle. So I started solid for in Washington DC in 2013. In essence, it is athletic Pilates and it's the hardest workout that you've never done. We now have a 140 locations around the country and it's all about using resistance training to strengthen your muscles. I exited solid core, I sold it for about a 100 million dollars is what my shares are worth in 2023. Now let's go meet my husband Brett and we'll show you our beach volleyball court outside. This is one our green also when we are when it's a little bit cooler in Miami we can sit out here with friends and family and turn on a little bit of the outdoor fireplace and enjoy some nature while we do that and then that's going to show you our pool and our volleyball court. Yeah, this is my absolute favorite part of this entire House and most people's favorite part of the House may come visit is this beautiful backyard, the one requirement for backyard, we're looking for houses, my wife wanted a beach volleyball court in the backyard, full size full dimensions and that's our favorite part of it. We've got a great pool here we have a sauna in the cold plunge in the back but this is where we hang out when we host everybody loves this area we love bringing people together we've got some great turf outside here which makes it really usable these doors slide all the way open which again we love the indoor outdoor again we're in Miami got to take advantage of the great weather. We have one of our guest bedrooms here and then as we go back here. Another great opportunity to host people we have 2 awesome TVs on my second favorite stones in the House, you'll understand why when you get to the rest of the tour, but we barbecue out here we can fit 14 people around this table, it's a great place to host it's a great place to bring people together over a meal or over again. So we have a another guest bedroom on this side, but let me take you to the gym and our cold plunge and sauna and right through here. So this is another great place that we have you can watch some games in here watch TV and I both like to go to the gym, we like to get out of the House the social we like to be in that environment, but when we need a quick workout. We have an Oxford here that's that's great. We have some kettlebells some some dumbbells and then we have all of our volleyball here. Now we can hit the cold plunge after the workout cold plunge and sauna you ready. All right so then we have to work out now we've got to make sure we recover so we have our sauna and our cold plunge over here. This is kind of our whole little recovery station, we've got the volleyball, we've got the gym, we've got the pool, but now we've got to recover so we've got the cold plunge in here. Keep that pretty cold and then we have our sauna right in here we use this a few times a week, I would say 4 to 5 times a week we find a way to get in here, I usually do it before dinner will give myself some relaxation time there will cool off get some good recovery and then we go have a great dinner together so then we have to move to the statement piece of the backyard which is our beautiful Beach volleyball court here. We have great trees that block off a lot of our neighbors so we have a ton of privacy out here so we're here a lot just put in some lights, sorry neighbors, but we play a lot and my this my wife's favorite part of the House. I work out routine is I play volleyball pretty much every day from 7 to 9 and then I am at the gym. Hour to day also so we have a man this is hard and heal. My days revolve around moving my body and staying active. I got a solid core when I'm mainly in New York when I'm in Miami, it's volleyball and heavy lifting at the gym. I like to strength train couple days a week I have started doing yoga once a week which is great and I will play volleyball when she lets me like once or twice a week. I say we've got to go to the lounge from the favorites on that will go to the lounge the family room in the kitchen. Now we're going to lounge here which is right off the volleyball court in the pool, obviously again a lot of indoor outdoor space which we love Miami when it's nice to keep the doors open as wide as we can and this is on another one of our hosting spaces, there's my favorite stones of the House are these ones that light up right here now funny enough we purchase this home halfway through construction so it wasn't a new build for us, we're able to put a lot of our finishing touches on it that we love we actually tried to talk them out of putting these stones and that light up because we know how cool they're going to look we're so glad they talked us out of it because at night these look But back here we have some ice we have a wet bar that we can host with if we like great wood paneling here that you'll see behind the TV and then also on the sliding doors. We have the wall to ceiling mirror that just makes the whole room look a lot bigger and then we have a nice little see-through separation between the kitchen in the family room so the slide is pocket doors right here are awesome. Slide all the way through no meet and the kitchen and family room. So this is where we spend the majority of our time when we are inside as you can see it has a really comfortable feel the couch is super comfortable fix a lot of people it's got like a nice neutral sort of blue feel in here to pull out the blue in the stone from the kitchen. So I love a big kitchen because again everybody usually hangs out in the kitchen when you're hosting people together so this room allows when we are inside for a lot of people to be comfortable while we're cooking and hanging out one of my favorite parts about this kitchen is this coffee machine all the appliances are gaga now, but this is something packet use every single day in the morning and makes amazing coffee and you'll see the appliances are just seamless all the way down you probably have no idea where the fridges don't worry, I'm going to show you and you can see our fridge pretty boring maybe to some people but we eat the same thing very much every day we've got fruit in here for the morning and And then we have our dinner which usually consists of rice ground turkey or ground beef vegetables and peppers and sometimes we mix it up with sweet potatoes. You know we first started with one studio in DC and a lot of about scaling is 2 things one, it's consistent execution and it's having the right mindset most people when they open a business they take the let's wait and see approach and a year goes by and you have one location, but I believe in the power of momentum and solid core was really popular from the very beginning and I saw that so I quickly got the second location open and I kept bankrolling the profits from the first 30 and the second to the 3rd studio. So we just kept going and we had 6 open within its first year. And so it was time to try the hand at another market so we expanded into Maryland and Virginia and made our way into Atlanta and Philadelphia and a lot of scaling is about putting when you get to that level the right infrastructure the right processes and the right people in place and making sure as the CEO that you are delegating other tasks that aren't as like as important as the work that you need to be doing to make the financial impact to the organization so it's always looking and saying can somebody else do this so that I can continue to elevate my role in the business before solid part actually started and built a nonprofit across the country most people do it in the flip where they make their money and then get into philanthropic work but that wasn't my path. So yeah, I built a nonprofit called back on my feet which uses running as a vehicle to help people experiencing homelessness change their identity so it can change the trajectory of their life. So we help people get jobs and homes all through running and that organization also scaled across the country to 14 different markets, including Miami I've always chosen to start things that are really authentic to who I am and I love health and fitness and I love creating things that make people's lives happier and healthier. So solid core I fell in love with that way of working out I frankly didn't know you could work out that way when I tried my first Pilates class and if I the queen of working out didn't know you could work out that way that meant the rest of the world didn't either so applying a really high quality branded experience that was immersed in a really authentic and genuine community is was a big part of solid for success because it was so authentic to who I am and what I like to do. Let's go check out the pantry the laundry room and a really cool powder. Also this piece of art is one of our favorites to we just love this guy and everybody just make everybody smile at some Gail yes, it was another artist that we like he does this all digitally and just a fun fun piece of pop art there and then this is our pantry Brett and I eat super healthy so we also are pretty organized in here, I make a yogurt bowl every morning with cashews with walnuts go to berries she is seeds some keto granola coconut and then some yogurt and then in our fridge here, you know we're not big drinkers but we do drink a lot of kombucha and we have these fun sort of functional beverages from breeze and then a lot of stuff there as well and then this way. This is a guest bedroom, but this is also a very cool element, I love the sophistication of these powder rooms that we have there's 2 that are pretty identical. You can see the beautiful green marble stone in here again has this nature vibe and feel so we couple that with some snakeskin wallpaper that you can see and then again a fun piece of art just in the background here, but I love the sophistication again the rose gold here beautiful lamp and one of the things I really appreciate about the developers of this house was that they didn't skimp on the laundry room and lot of laundry rooms just have drywall these guys have custom cabin tree in here also super beautiful me a kachina and then of course we have 2 sets of washers and dryers and we have all of our guests here so that's the laundry room and then let's check out the garage really quick. So this is my pride and joy after I sold solid for I I'm not a big car person, but I think that this car so pretty so this is my Bentley it's a baby blue Bentley I drive it pretty much every day even though it's a depreciating asset, it's one of my favorite things and I was happy to spend it and then this is Brett Honda and which he refuses to sell and I kind of love that about him now it's coming right again and he's going to show you his office and our bedroom. I got the office we got the closet, we got the master bedroom, but first got to show you another really cool room in this house all right so before we go to the office, the closet the master bedroom first we're going to come this way we got another really cool room for hosting so obviously when you have a lot of people in here and have a lot of bedrooms. You need to entertain them so one thing we really love is a great movie room so in here we have our theater room so you can see we have a lot of cool photos of some of our favorite actors and actresses and you can cram a lot of kids and bodies into this couch so we all come in here we all hang out we get some popcorn we watch a cool movie so great the kids love it our nieces and nephews we both have a lot of them so it's great when they get to come we cram them in here sometimes they even pass out and sleep in here but it's a lot of fun. We're going to head out this door here and we're going to head to two of our other guest rooms so these is what our nieces and nephews have named the bunk room and the pink room so the pink room first again another pink room that I allowed my wife to have here but this has two queen beds in here really cool wallpaper that's actually called Miami Vice I believe all of our guest rooms have an en suite bathroom they all have their own closet but this is the pink room they all have a desk here as well we have friends come visit we wanted to stay as long as possible so we always have a desk in each room in case somebody's got to log on answer a couple emails before we get back to the volleyball court. The other bedroom here is going to be our bunk room this is the upstairs laundry that Anne was talking about and then this is one of the favorite rooms for the kids as well called the bunk room you can probably imagine we got bunk beds in here kids love hanging out in here they all cram in here they all try to call shotgun on this room when they stay here again another closet and a bathroom on each one so now we're gonna head back down the hallway to the office into the master suite first you gotta check out this view again if Miami does anything consistent they always love the open air so we have a great second balcony view here looking down onto the formal living room still get another shot of that stone it's a great view here and we have a couple more Angelo Accardi pieces here lined up through now let's head to the office this is where the work magic happens so this is where I do a lot of the work that I work on I have some lights I have a couple monitors being a keynote speaker sometimes the talks are virtual so sometimes companies will hire me for different virtual talks always like to make sure I have good lighting and a really great background I love personal growth books so I have this is like my wall of fame here when it comes to all the books that I'm working on and for any of the fans of the show suits this color back here is actually the exact same color as Harvey Specter's wall so got to have some good vibes going in here right I got my whiteboards I got my guitar if I ever need to break just from a little bit and play but I love this office probably not as clean as it could be but that's because that's basically a demonstration of what's going on in my brain but I love it I feel really inspired when I walk in every day the colors bring a lot of like really good masculine energy but at the same time I love being creative so more fun better now let's go head to the master bedroom that I know you We have an awesome awesome closet a lot of people say it's it's some of their their favorite part of the house, let's go meet and she can show you what we got here so they wear you out. It's the closet, this is the closet and I'd like to point out that Brett has the same number of shoes that I do and this is my side and that is Brett side having a closet like this is amazing, it's honestly nice to have so much room and we probably have too many clothes but so be it but yeah, we love having this big space in here we spend of course a lot of time in our bedroom in the morning in the evening. Let's show you the bathroom actually because this is a really cool space to so we have separate toilets also highly recommend if that's an option for you and you can see Brett's wallpaper is we have the same wallpaper his is black and minusing but this is his face and then you can see you know the separate sort of vanity is so we're together in here, but we have our own space is a lot of stories which is really really nice and this is our shower so we have to shower head in here and then this beautiful black tub which to be honest we used to be through be if we want to take a hot tub, we are usually outside in the jacuzzi and then you can see my bathroom which again same wallpaper, but it's pink so we don't get confused on who's who and then this is the bedroom and this is now really better and so again nice big space in I actually work in here and quite a bit at this table all come up here for some privacy. But this is of course where we sleep great huge windows, lots of light in here we do have a TV, but we actually don't watch a ton of TV in this bedroom and you can see again a good use of colors we wanted a little bit more moody in here so you'll see some darker colors with the black again some of the black paneling on the wall. So there's another a great piece of art over here, her name is Catherine and she's a local artist in DC. I just love the paper mache sort of looking feel to it and again the colors go really well in the bedroom and speaking of color for our let's go check out that are in the hallway. These are also some custom pieces that we did I love pop art again if you have noticed I love color a lot and just the fun cartoons. So we decided to like to dress these cartoons up to tie in the closet. So we use some like luxury names here, you know you see some Louis Vuitton some Chanel we did these pieces because these walls are big so we did custom make them I don't know we put some cool little things in here that top one says if I were as rich as you I could afford some manners art is not a crime and you'll see this one actually in the hallway that we custom made and we put our cool little initials on Popeye's for there. And that's it you guys thank you so much for coming to check out our home, we hope you had a great time we did but it's time for Ruby's that see you later if you like this video make sure you check out this one here take everyone.
