Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Mandy Kroll, Founder of RiseUp Health & Wellness, located in Peoria, IL, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
RiseUp Health & Wellness provides individualized wellness education, teaching & support. Our 34-strand HIPAA-protected DNA kit analyzes exactly what your body needs to thrive in the areas of nutrition, vitamins, activity, stress management, metabolism, weight management, inflammation, and sleep. Together, we create an individualized plan to help you achieve your goals & overcome wellness challenges. You learn your unique, genetic-based approach to life, comparable to having a blueprint that takes the guesswork out of feeling your best!
Tell us about yourself
With 20 years in the healthcare industry, I found a passion for teaching people “the why” beyond their illness. I recognized the value of understanding through education, empowering others to make choices that led to healthier futures. Learning personal needs leads to different choices. New choices create new habits that result in life-changing results.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Having reviewed over 150 DNA results with clients, I’ve become fascinated by genetic trends, specifically related to inflammation. I’m honored to formally partner with Dr. Landon Pryor, FACS, to support his patients looking to improve overall wellness, inflammation, and detoxification.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
The days are never long enough. Being available to my clients, who are also busy living their day-to-day lives, means arranging my time such that I can be there when they need encouragement the most.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
First, I would say, take action. If you can dream it, you can do it. Give yourself grace, seeing every situation as an opportunity to learn, grow and adjust. Have fun: chronic stress directly impacts your hormones, your weight, your cardiovascular system, your sleep, and your peace.
