Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in wellness, but not sure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Marina Simovic founder of Flexhealing with a passion for health and wellbeing based in New York, USA.

Tell us all about your business...

Physical therapy/stretch therapy/Reiki healing- I help people with sciatica, lower back pain, anxiety, and stress.

What's your background and motivation to grow as a solopreneur?

I am grateful and humbled to wake up with a purpose every day- to be able to have my passion and help people at the same time.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

I worked with a variety of different people and different age groups. My accomplishments vary from client to client. One of them is to have a distance reiki session- where I saw and felt in my intuitive practice to locate a medical problem before the doctor gave an actual prognosis. Helping people feel less anxious, sleep better, have fewer problems in day-to-day life, and restoring balance and harmony inside families, helping a client to leave a toxic relationship utilizing counseling and reiki techniques.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a solopreneur?

Managing and wearing so many hats- unless you hire somebody (it's a must).

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run or grow a small business today?

  1. Grow your network, therefore establish good personal and business relationships.
  2. Be patient- it takes time to grow and reach success.
  3. Be transparent and honest with people. If you can't solve a particular problem with a client, just be honest.

If there was one thing you could do repeatedly to help grow your business, what would it be?

Referrals- they are Gold- meaning treat each client as a human being with respect and dignity.

What are some of the things you put in place to maintain a healthy work/life balance and to keep it all together?

Meditations, baths, dancing, nature, and healthy relationships.
