Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and fitness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Justin Cooper, Co-Owner of Kula Wellness, located in Port Charlotte, FL, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
My wife, Krista, and I are owners of Kula Wellness. We are a yoga studio that also offers private nutrition, fitness, and life coaching.
Tell us about yourself
I knew that I wanted to help people live happier and healthier lives. Seeing clients mentally and physically healthier after working with us is a great motivation. It means a lot to be that changing force in someone's life.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
The goal of any business is to provide for your family. It feels great being able to provide for my family while doing something that I love and making a difference in other people's lives.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
It can be hard to shut off from thinking about work. Especially since my wife and I both work on the business, it takes a little extra effort to consciously pause from work talk and make sure we are still nourishing our relationship and family as well.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
If you are looking to start, run and grow a business today, the first thing I would tell you is to get started. A lot of planning goes into it, and it is easy to put that off for longer than ideal. Make sure that it is something that you are passionate about, or else you will find yourself struggling to find the motivation. It is also helpful to have a partner who shares that passion and can contribute in areas that you know are your weaknesses.
