Getting Clients, Setting Boundaries & Building a Business with Justin Cooper

Justin Cooper is a personal trainer, yoga teacher, the host of the Kula Wellness podcast, and the co-founder of Kula Wellness. Justin came to yoga while working in the restaurant industry and his passion for health and wellness took him in the direction of doing a masters of holistic counselling and psychology. He dove into the program, and started doing personal training. His personal training business picked up to the point where we was able to quit his restaurant job.

Along the way, Justin realized that the masters program wasn't what he wanted to do, so he quit that to travel SE Asia, where he took his yoga teacher training.  When Justin came back from SE Asia, he dove into entrepreneurship and co-founded Kula Wellness with his partner.

On this episode of the podcast, Justin and I talk about building a successful business in your community, as well as online. We also talk about finding clients, building up your cliental, setting boundaries, preventing burnout, and more. Justin also shares the process of setting up the first Kula Wellness Retreat and what he's learned from that experience.

Enjoy!
