Show Up as Your Best Self

Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Jenna Hansen, Owner of Awaken Studios and Retreats and Awaken Transformation, located in Sandy, UT, USA.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

It's a business of connection- connection with the highest version of yourself, connection with a community that supports you, and connection to tools and systems to help you become your best self physically, mentally, and spiritually.

Awaken Studios is a brick-and-mortar studio that offers over 80 small group classes per week in Pilates Reformer, Yoga, High Fitness, Aerial, Wyld, Strength training, TRX, and more! We also have a virtual studio of hundreds of classes that you can do from the comfort of your own home.

Awaken Transformation is online mindset coaching to guide you to your goals, give you the tools to create your best life- physically and mentally, and help you find peace, ease, and solutions in your day-to-day life.

Awaken Retreats hosts wellness retreats all over the world. Each retreat offers fitness classes, mindset coaching classes, cultural experiences, and a local service project. Awaken Retreats creates a space for each individual to heal, learn, grow and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Tell us about yourself

I believe in humans. I believe we have limitless potential. I believe if we have a desire, a dream, or a goal, we also have the capability to accomplish it. I have chosen to dedicate my life to supporting, connecting, and engaging with others. It is an honor to see clients truly improve not only how they look physically but in how they feel. They become confident, empowered, and energized by the life they create.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

My biggest accomplishment is the ONE. Reaching and impacting the one person. That one person who feels their very best physically and mentally, and emotionally now goes out into the world and shows up FULLY. The ripple effect of how they show up in their family, professionally and socially, improves not only their life but all who they come in contact with.

What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?

The 50/50...the 50% of failure, the 50% of things not working how you thought they 'should,' the 50% of not balancing work/ life, 50% is amazing and successful, and rainbows and daisies, then there is that other 50% of exhaustion, stress, slip-ups. The hardest part is allowing the 50% negative to teach me and move me forward each day.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

DO IT! If you have a dream, then you also have the capability. The world needs your talent.
