Music City Mindset | Mastering Mindset with Allan Penn: Hot & Cold Therapy, Global Leadership & Peak Performance

 

On this episode of of Music City Mindset, Blake Harris and Deon Giddens sit down with Allan Penn — Founder of Framework, President & COO of Ready, and the former Head of Uber China.

They discuss Allan’s journey that spans through all 7 continents, from boardrooms to the backcountry, he shares the mindset he practices that fuel his global success.

At the heart of Framework’s philosophy is the strategic use of hot and cold therapy—a practice backed by science and embraced by elite athletes, fitness professionals, and wellness seekers alike.

His global experience, including his leadership role at Uber during its rapid expansion into China, informs Framework’s fast-scaling vision. He’s no stranger to navigating high-stakes environments or building culture-rich, high-performing teams across continents. That cross-cultural fluency and operational grit are now helping Framework expand from Nashville to other major markets, one studio at a time.

His passion for building resilience was also forged in more personal ways—through travel, challenge, and adventure.

With a sleek design, expert-led sessions, and a growing community of high achievers, Framework is more than a wellness studio—it’s a movement. One that invites people to take recovery seriously and embrace discomfort as a catalyst for growth.
