Ever wondered how to transform your career amidst a global pandemic? Join us on the Small Business Bestie podcast this week as we sit down with Carolyn Krueskamp, a registered dietitian and personal trainer who did just that. Carolyn shares her compelling journey from working in a small hospital to launching a virtual private practice specializing in women's health, gut health, hormones, and metabolism. Discover the motivations that powered her career shift, the creative freedoms she now enjoys, and the vital role mentorship played in evolving her focus from fat loss to a holistic approach to health.
In our conversation, Carolyn reveals the often-overlooked aspects of gut health, even for those without obvious symptoms. Learn how she uses symptom questionnaires and stool tests to diagnose issues like gluten sensitivity, H. pylori infections, and parasites. Carolyn also shares the unique challenges she faced starting her virtual health business while living in an RV, moving across several states, and finally settling in Georgetown, Kentucky. Uncover the reality of balancing a mobile lifestyle with the demands of running a business and the eventual decision to put down roots in the Lexington area.
Carolyn dreams of building a supportive virtual health coaching team and faces the hurdles of navigating social media and marketing strategies. Hear about her experiences with outsourcing tasks to focus on her core passions and the benefits of in-person interactions through networking events and public speaking. This episode is filled with inspiration and encouragement to keep pushing forward, even when faced with challenges.
