Team Subkit -

Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Stephen Wild, Founder and Director of Mind Body Health Well-Being, located in Wigan, Manchester, UK.

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

I run a mental health and exercise programme, online and gym based. We help men and women transform their mindsets to improve their bodies for long-term health. I also have an online program to help retired sportsmen make the transition from sports to normal life.

Tell us about yourself

I was a professional rugby league player for 18 years, played at the top level for a long time, and represented my country. Approaching retirement, I open my own gym which felt natural. Over the last 3 years, I’ve discovered more clients were approaching me for mental well-being advice. That’s where the MBH program started. My motivation is being part of a big change in the industry where we are not just focusing on physical health but changing lives mentally.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

I think surviving Covid as a business where I had to upskill myself to change how we approach fitness.

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

For me, it’s handing tasks over to other people. Finding the right person that has the same values as me.

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

  1. Find the people who are great at areas you’re not so good in and pass them over.
  2. Do the basics, don’t try to jump far ahead.
  3. Be a good problem solver. You’ll be constantly challenged.
