Our Manifiesto

 Life is a compilation of experiences. We are the curators of this collection. Making it consequential, meaningful and inspiring is the “Live Large” mission. We proactively pursue passions that make us come alive in all realms of daily life. The world needs us. We believe that autopilot is death.

Grab the wheel.

We aim to be exceptional and recognize that average actions do not produce extraordinary results. This requires us to both live “in the moment” and to plan for future explorations that expand our horizons. A bent toward active adventure does not preclude the quiet enjoyment of a spectacular sunset.

Be & do.

Living large means taking full advantage of every day we have on earth while understanding that not all are equal. Some days are stupendous whether spent climbing a mountain or swinging in a hammock. We don’t waste opportunities for adventure, exploring, learning, leisure, or love.

We say “yes” and we go.

Experiences are better than things, especially in the outdoors. We travel light, collecting friends and memories along the way. To look back on life with satisfaction is to live twice. These are the good things: travel, work, service, hobbies, relaxation, fitness, food, drink, friends, and financial freedom.

Make a great story.

We embrace community and interdependence. The quality of life is a function of relationships. The story is made sweeter by the people that populate the pages of our autobiography. You will find kindred spirits in this family. We don’t need fortune, fame or followers. We strive to live lives that matter:

Live Large!

Meet the Team

Bill Poston

Co-Founder

  • Bill Poston is an entrepreneur, business advisor, investor, philanthropist, educator, and adventurer. He is the founder or principal owner of over fifteen companies and nonprofit enterprises. His passion for exploration and adventure keeps him moving around the world in search of more extreme forms of hiking, SCUBA diving, snow skiing, boating and all types of fishing. Bill keeps his “north of fifty” body in condition with a punishing exercise regimen and a crazy diet that includes lots of really good wine. While he lives with a “no fixed address” mentality, he and his wife, Richele, can occasionally be found at their home in the Texas Hill Country where their four adult children and a growing number of grandchildren infrequently congregate from far-flung parts of the world for raucous family time.

Cortney Lebens

Co-Founder

  • Cortney Lebens is a successful entrepreneur, social innovator, business executive, mentor, fitness fanatic, inspiring leader, and aspiring fashion icon. From a small town in the hill country of central Texas, she possesses a strong work ethic that propelled her from college to become the CEO of two significant businesses before the age of thirty. The demands of running two companies does not prevent Cortney from maintaining a healthy lifestyle. She is a fitness fanatic that is addicted to the high she gets from her crazy-early morning spin class and can bench press her own weight with relative ease. She inspires those around her to exercise regularly while eating healthy “most of the time.” A recent lab test showed elevated levels of avocado in her bloodstream.

Jessica Bryant

General Manager

  • A former collegiate athlete, Jessica began her health and fitness journey at an early age. Originally from Michigan, her first athletic endeavor was a youth soccer team, which grew in to playing softball, cheerleading, and tennis to name a few. Though these days, you'll be more likely to find her in a Zumba class or weightlifting. When not at Live Large, you'll find her searching for Austin's best breakfast taco with her husband, Luke, and rescue pup, Zoey.

Brooke DeClairmont

Operations Manager

  • Brooke is the go-to for all things operations, scheduling, administration, and project management. She also spearheads adherence of SOPs, culture, and values. Brooke has been in Austin for over 20 years – proudly experiencing the growth and seeing the endless opportunities for success! She enjoys being active around Austin and getting her sweat on at Live Large Fit Studios
