Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Lisa Rudi-Davis, owner of Nourish Philly, located in Philadelphia, PA, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
Nourish Philly is a virtual private practice that provides holistic nutrition services for people, young and old, focusing on nutrition education, disease prevention, and most importantly, food!
Tell us about yourself
I am a Registered Dietitian-Nutritionist and Certified Health Coach. I have 19 years of experience working in the field of health and nutrition. I decided to pursue private practice to provide my clients with an individualized nutrition plan as it relates to their unique health goals and to educate people regarding disease prevention, food shopping, meal preparation, and creating a healthy relationship with food.
In the past, I have consulted with clients in less than ideal environments, namely hospitals. I decided I wanted to give my energy to clients that are committed and interested in healing and prevention. I am motivated to continue this work because it brings me great joy to empower others to make healthy changes and coach them to feel the best they ever thought possible.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Every day is an accomplishment. Providing great service has allowed my business to grow and most of my new clients are referrals from existing clients. It makes me happy to know that the feeling of good health is really contagious, and the information learned is then shared among others.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
I feel like I am always working, and it is difficult for me to end my day. It goes without saying that business owners give 110% every day, and delegating tasks is quite difficult for me.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Start with a plan.
- Ask questions.
- Consult with others that are doing similar work.
