Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Dorothy Dawn, founder of Nutrition 4 Men & Nutrition 4 Ladies, located in Irvine, CA, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
Dietitian Dorothy says…
…so, your belly is in the way of your golf swing. Do you want to get back in the game?
Get back in the game!
Are you an ostrich with your head in the sand in denial of your labs revealing high cholesterol?
You have white coat syndrome, and your blood pressure sky-rockets even higher than your normal high with anxiety because you know you are guilty of not eating right. You can't hide, the numbers will reveal your unhealthy lifestyle to your doctor, and you're going to hear the four-letter word: DIET. If you do not, your life is on the line - you're a ticking time bomb.
Are you embarrassed by your snoring? It's time to wake up to the fact that that has to do with your weight too!
Tell us about yourself
In my next life, I will be a Detroit sports broadcaster; however, in this life, I am doing what I am most passionate about - helping people find health and happiness. Yes, I was the little girl dressed up in my leotard copying those retro 80's workout girls on HBO.
I haven't grown out of it. I studied group exercise instruction and obtained my Bachelor's of Science in Dietetics at Eastern Michigan University. Meanwhile, I finished my education at the University of Michigan, interning at the hospital, which transpired into working there too! I also had the honor of landing an internship with Pfizer heading up their corporate wellness department.
I moved to California one week after I graduated and started my own business. While I was growing my business, I published my first book, The Best Darn Book About Nutrition & Health. I also picked up consultant work for companies such as Kaiser Permanente, Farmodietica, and Balboa Bay Club & Resort.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Publishing my first book, "The Best Darn Book About Nutrition & Health."
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
The ups and downs, especially with finances.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Have a backup plan.
- Think outside of the box.
- Have a significant other with a salary job.
Is there anything else you'd like to share?
"Now, I am here to help you change your life for the better!"
It doesn't have to be this way; the struggle is real, walking around with a big old gut. There's too much quack information out there, and it's so confusing deciphering where to turn. It's not your fault! Men are ignored in the diet world. No one understands, but I do. I know what to do and how to do it! This is why I created the solution - Nutrition 4 Men.
I am passionate about helping men lower cholesterol/blood pressure naturally through wholesome nutrition. You can eliminate medications because they have many side effects, including negatively impacting your sexual performance!
That's why we have this program for you; you can brag to your doctor that through smart nutritious food choices, you naturally lowered your cholesterol/blood pressure, and you don't need your meds anymore. "Bye, Felicia!" In my work, I help you implement a highly personalized nutrition plan designed to lose fat and make muscle gains! Why not increase your stamina, income (fit people make more money), outward appearance, and self-confidence? You have nothing to lose (other than weight) and everything to gain!
