WOMEN TO WATCH

Tisha Kelly

Co-Owner, Nutritionist, Personal Trainer & Wellness Coach
CORE Wellness

CORE Wellness offers a number of services that put your body in the environment to heal itself. We give you the tools to get healthy from the inside out. After being a personal trainer for several years, I realized the missing piece to health was educating clients on nutrition and self healing. Clients would give 100% during workouts, but still not get the results they desired. I wanted to find a way to help them achieve their goals and have a lasting healthy lifestyle.

PRESSING QUESTIONS

How I knew this was my passion

I realized the impact my knowledge and guidance could have on clients. They were feeling better than they ever imagined with no medication and had more energy and self-confidence.

Best career moment so far

Starting my own business. Not everyone gets to do work they love, but we all need to discover what we were born to do. It was my responsibility to listen to God and go for it.

Best advice I ever received

Daily personal development. Invest time and energy in yourself every day. When you invest in yourself, you can never lose. Over time you will be able to create your own path and believe in yourself.

I wish someone told me at the start of my career

Surround yourself with people who will encourage you to achieve your goals. Even though they may think you're crazy, they still support you.

Biggest challenges in my career

Balancing time between career and family. They are both very important to me. I want to make sure I am both physically and emotionally present when spending time with my family. The hardest is being emotionally present after work.

Nonprofit I wish more people knew about

Women's Initiative International. They work with impoverished women around the world to train in trade, build confidence and partner with them to sell artisan products.

What keeps me coming back to my job every day

I love my team and clients. We have built such a positive culture. We challenge and encourage each other. Our goal is to make our clients' day better and celebrate with them as they reach milestones in their health.
