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

  • Implement healthy habits and live pain-free
  • Start or improve a relationship
  • Reduce stress, depression, or anxiety
  • Find their purpose and start a fulfilling career

Tell us about yourself

I am a certified Integrative Nutrition & Health Coach and a Talent Acquisition Leader. At the age of 35, I found myself in a midlife crisis in which I felt very disempowered and lacked a sense of purpose and direction in my life. My diet was triggering chronic inflammation. I was working prolonged hours in front of a screen with a poor posture that was causing lower back pain, my dating life was miserable, and my recruiting career was disrupted by any minor economic slow-down.

I had enough of this and wanted to take control of my life and health. After being laid off for the 2nd time in my career, I started doing intensive inner work, starting with my mindset, then lifestyle and nutrition. The more self-awareness I created for myself, the closer I got to my big WHY. In a short amount of time, I not only went pain-free and regained my health, but I also found my partner to whom I'm happily married with and created a recession-proof stable career.

Connecting to my authentic self gave me a clear vision to balance my life and help others who are going through similar problems that I was struggling with. This is why I started BeYu Wellness. I see many corporate employees struggling with the consequences of poor nutrition, a sedentary lifestyle, and a victimized mindset. Knowing how painful it can be to live with the consequences of poor choices while they are easily evitable motivates me to do what I do and turn around someone's life for the better.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

Every business owner has a different measure and definition of success. I evaluate my success by the impact that I make on other people's lives. I feel highly accomplished when my clients have a breakthrough moment during a coaching session that gets them closer to learning about their authentic selves.

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

Being a business owner brings you the independence and joy of living your purpose. However, it is easy to lose your presence in other areas of life. What I mean by that is that you do not have traditional work hours as a business owner. Even when you are participating in non-work related activities such as going out for a date with your partner or watching a sports game with your friends, your mind is always triggered to be busy creating new business ideas and solving problems. This might have a negative impact on your relationships if you don't act mindfully.

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

  1. Do what you love.
  2. Do it consistently.
  3. Be Yourself.
