A Defense Against Alzheimer’s - Primal Wellness
Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Lawrence Jones, Founder of Primal Wellness, located in Coquitlam, BC, Canada.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I’m so blown away to be in a position to be able to offer certified coaching support for two categories of clients: those who want protection from the cognitive decline of Alzheimer’s or those already experiencing symptoms of the disease. I’m supported by Apollo Health - an online clinic and community that treats clients using a robust, evidence-based, and personalized diagnosis and healing protocol.
Tell us about yourself
As I was winding down a career in administration, a random podcast propelled me into some lifestyle changes and, from there, a yearlong certification as a Functional Medicine Health Coach. I found myself very much wanting to share the astounding benefits of what I’d lived and learned. Finding that Apollo Health was using a Functional Medicine approach to offer a defense against Alzheimer’s meant I was all in to help out.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
I’m really happy with how much I learned about websites while building my own, and the layout, design, and functionality are, I hope, appealing and effective (and helpful!).
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
You have to defend against the feeling that you’re all alone and doing everything on your own. That kind of comes with the territory, of course, but it can be isolating.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Don’t be afraid to pivot to a different approach if what you’re doing isn’t yielding results - all that you learned the first time will make everything faster a second time.
- That said, be patient and know that the full development of most businesses and services is a long game.
- Be consistent and methodical in what you do, whether it’s your social postings and blog content, workshops, courses, or communications.
Is there anything else you'd like to share?
Just these are very exciting times where we can reach all around the globe to connect with and help people; it’s a privilege to have the challenge of reaching those who could truly benefit from engaging.
