Everyone is always looking for a dope spot to kick it or cute Instagrammable spots throughout the city. Oh, I’ve got you boo! That’s funny you ask because this is actually one of my most popular questions I get from my Turo guest. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc. Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. However, I’ve learned that if you are open to feedback and listen when others are talking – then you will know exactly where you need to meet them and how you can adapt. Learning how to shift my business to keep up with our ever-changing world has definitely been the biggest lesson. I now host 6 weeks fitness challenges to help women drop extra weight off their bodies AND minds. Almost two years later and here I am – still standing. I started offering Personal Training and this was the most amazing thing I could have done. I then started selling eBooks so that women could workout from the comfort of their own homes, but that wasn’t bringing in NEARLY as much profit as I had hoped …so I had to shift again. Once gyms shut down due to the pandemic – I had to find a way to shift. With that being said, my journey has not been easy in the slightest. I officially started my business in February 2020 …yep, right before life as we knew it would change forever. That’s when I knew that I wanted to help other women build their ideal bodies. Oftentimes whenever I went to the gym, I would see the majority of the women there cooped up in a corner with one set of dumbbells or machine hopping with no direction or purpose. Going to the gym and working out can be intimidating. One of the biggest things I pride myself on is meeting women right where they are on their fitness journey. It wasn’t until 2019, that I decided to start helping other women who were beginning their fitness journey. Back in 2015, I started my fitness journey in college and it slowly progressed into an Instagram page On my account, I shared my fitness journey which included – workouts, recipes, and encouragement for other women. Well, first you should know that it initially didn’t start as a business – it actually started as a hobby. I quit my job to become an entrepreneur and open my own business, Built by Bri Fitness – dedicated to helping women drop extra weight off their mind and bodies.īet on yourself and take that risk, I promise God won’t let you fail.Ĭan you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others? I moved to Miami, no friends or family within 700 miles, only $500 in my bank account, and an airbnb booked for one month. But if you branch out and take that life-changing risk, you might find yourself in a new light embarking on a completely different journey. If you let fear dictate your life then you will be satisfied with staying below the concrete, stuck in the same place with nowhere to grow. Whereas, the concrete represents all the hurdles and barriers you have to overcome in life.īut just above the surface, when you finally emerge, is light, new beginnings, and adventure. This will often be surroundings you have adapted to or a situation you have grown comfortable in. Below the concrete is darkness, warmth, a place of security. It’s so poetic to me how they manage to break through all those layers of concrete, yet stretch their petals high to the sky as if they’ve never known a struggle. I’ve found myself so intrigued with flowers growing through the sidewalk lately. We put off asking that person out, we hold out on applying for that job, we neglect living out our dreams all because of …fear.īut what happens when we risk the impossible and ditch all our fears? A child is only afraid of the dark because of their inability to see around them. But if you really stop to think about it…What is fear? It’s all made up if we’re being honest. Whether it be the fear of failing, fear of rejection, or simply just fear of the unknown. I think when we talk about risk we must also talk about the fear that we’ve had to overcome… When I decided to choose entrepreneurship over finding another job – that was a risk. When I quit my job in the middle of a pandemic because my mental health was at stake – that was a risk. Moving from the small town of Cleveland, Tennessee to a city that would literally SWALLOW my hometown – was risky and terrifying. We had the good fortune of connecting with Briana Cooper and we’ve shared our conversation below.Įver since I moved to Miami, taking risk is one of the biggest things I applaud myself on.
