Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and fitness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Jeannie Martingano, Founder of JeannieFit, located in Indialantic, FL, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I help exceptional people get fit and have fun doing it with hip-hop fitness with MyHipHopFit, my dynamic fitness program with the best of cardio, core, and choreography! I am a renowned dance fitness expert who has been sought after by the best companies in the world, such as Amazon, AFAA, and N.A.S.A (Kennedy Space Station) and News Morning shows across the nation for my unique hip-hop fitness movement. During the pandemic, I was a live-stream trainer for Amazon HQ! I currently train celebrity clients such as HGTV star Taniya Nayak, models, doctors, lawyers, and exceptional professionals like you who want to get fit and have fun doing it!
Tell us about yourself
I am a leader, mentor, and teacher who enriches lives through hip-hop fitness and overall wellness from the inside out! My inspiration is the people I serve. As for my home life, I currently reside in Florida with my amazing boys, ages 5,8,14,18, and my wonderful husband, Dr. Dan Martingano, D.C.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
I am proud to say this year, I am hitting the #kajabihero milestone for the 3rd time! It is a manifestation of all the energy that has been put into creating the MyHipHopFit program; however, my biggest accomplishment is impacting the lives of the people I serve! To be a part of their lives in such a positive way and champion their journey to health through hip-hop fitness is so rewarding! I am also a leader of leaders, as my program teaches others how to lead MyHipHopFit workouts in their locations! Being able to impact the fitness industry not just as a dance and fitness pro but also as a teacher of teachers while achieving my financial business milestones is a gift!
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
One of the hardest things we face as business owners are trusting ourselves. In the beginning, everything is so new, and you are learning so much that there is second-guessing that goes on. After a while, if you hone in on your gift and trust yourself fully that you know what the next step is, that is a game changer!
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Learn to trust your true innate self! You know the next step. You know exactly what to do even when you don't know trust that you do!
- Have a strong why! Why do you do what you do?
- Bring feminine and masculine energy to your business so that you feel the love and take action!
