In this episode of "It Takes a Village to Raise an Entrepreneur," we're jumping into the lively world of health and wellness with the amazing Tiara Howard, affectionately known as "T-How." Tiara, who once coached me on the secrets of mood balance and increasing happiness through movement, shares her inspiring journey from track and field athlete to certified personal trainer, powerlifter, and strength coach.

We chat about the ups and downs of this fitness journey, and Tiara reminds us that it's all about the process. Whether you're starting from scratch or looking to level up, you'll find valuable insights here. Tiara also shares the importance of inspiring people to get up and move their bodies. She highlights the significance of working with dedicated clients and emphasizes that motivation has to come from within. You can't force someone to make a change, they need to meet you halfway.

We also take a peek behind the scenes of the coaching business, from assembling the right team to help you get started, to the nitty-gritty of building a website, navigating the nuances of online coaching versus in-person training, and mastering the art of effective marketing to grow your fitness empire.

And for those itching to kickstart their fitness journey, Tiara introduces her GetWaisted Fitness program. Learn more at getwaistedfitness.com.
