Inner Health, Outer Beauty - [Better]
Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Dr. Natasha Iyer, medical director of [Better], located in Calgary, AB, Canada.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
Feel and look younger! Our clients are feeling like they are losing their vitality faster than they should: energy, sleep, mood, focus, sex drive, and gaining weight and misery.
Our integrative medical team restores health so you can feel great again with functional medicine and alternative techniques. Our Skin Science centre helps you look younger and completely natural. One really important area we work in is helping people who just can’t get solutions to their health through regular doctor visits.
Tell us about yourself
I used to be F’d! (Fatigued, fat, frazzled, foggy, and forgetful
and frumpy. All my tests were normal, and no one could help me find a solution to feel better. I couldn’t even imagine living to 40, let alone 50, with constant pain and not feeling well. Through a series of divine interventions, I specialized in Functional medicine and bio-identical hormone therapy, which is vastly different from traditional medicine and pills.
Today, I help people from all parts of the country (and world) to restore their health and vitality and look as young as they feel.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Transforming lives and seeing people enjoy their lives again. After two major recessions and a pandemic, we celebrate our 16th birthday this year…
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
Working in the business and on the business. I simply love it, so it’s easy, but you’re pretty much ‘on’ 24-7 with ideas, creative new approaches, managing people, and growing.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Begin with the end in mind.
- Just start, don’t think too deep or too much if this is your true passion that makes you get up in the morning.
- Surround yourself with people smarter than you and who thinks differently from you.
Is there anything else you'd like to share?
I’m truly blessed to be able to help transform lives. We have created our clinic to be the most accessible (affordable) functional medicine clinic where patients can get access to health care instead of ‘sick care.’
