What's your business, and who are your customers?
My business is all about assisting individuals who are struggling with pain, inflammatory conditions, and emotional and mental challenges by getting to the root source of their health issues. I have a health and wellness centre in Woodbridge, Ontario, focusing on nutrition, energy medicine, BodyTalk, The Emotion Codes, The BodyCodes, and RTT Hypnosis. My work is non-invasive, totally safe, and holistic in its approach. 'Alternative Health Care for Today's World!" I focus on a preventative, effective, and proactive approach to health and wellness. I work with babies, young children, teenagers, and adults with many health issues.
Tell us about yourself
I am a health and wellness advocate for the last 30yrs. I started my practice and set up my wellness center back in 2007 and have never looked back! I am passionate about helping individuals move forward and helping them to thrive again and get back to living life. I have studied over 35 different modalities over the years that have helped me understand the Body/Mind connection. I also teach workshops to women on the 'Art of Empowerment,' which has been a great success in empowering women in all walks of life. I am the founder and owner of Integrated Wellness Body Mind & Soul in Woodbridge, Ontario.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
I have a very successful practice; my biggest accomplishment has been seeing my clients get back on their feet and get back to living life again without all the pain, the suffering, and the baggage that they carry, which affects their health, physically, emotionally, mentally, and even spiritually.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
You have to be on your toes and up to date with the latest technology and information that is coming out every day. Study new modalities, and don't limit yourself. Dedication is key, as is passionate about your work.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
