As entrepreneurs and business owners, our physical health can often take a backseat. Health and wellness expert Dave Sherwin is here to explain how you can achieve optimal health at any age, even for busy entrepreneurs!

Dave is the owner of Dirobi and CCL Supplements, both leading companies in the health and wellness industry. His goal with both companies is to create supplements that help people of all ages maintain proper vitamin and mineral amounts. For those struggling to handle business overwhelm, his products might be the solution you are looking for. 

Professional Development
What sets Dave apart from other health and wellness experts? He says it all comes down to professional development. His team is constantly working on growth, improvement and knowledge. 

Their culture of collaboration and continuous learning has allowed them to stay on top of their game. When the pandemic hit, Dirobi saw a huge influx of new business. While their competitors fell behind, Dirobi was ready to take on the challenge, selling four months’ worth of products in just 30 days. 

Wellness Wisdom for the Overworked Business Owner
Dave has a three-pillared approach to health and wellness: nutrition, fitness and supplements. Finding balance in these three areas is the key to optimal health. Easier said than done, right? According to Dave, you don’t have to follow any crazy diets or take any outrageous supplements to be healthy. 

Eating a well-balanced diet, staying active as much as possible and taking basic supplements are all sustainable practices anyone can do to stay healthy. A healthy business owner is a happy one. If you feel well, then you are more likely to serve your clients on a higher level. Dave also recommends limiting social media and practicing mindfulness and meditation.

Dave is also a health and wellness coach. Sign up for a consultation with him here.

“Borrow the belief I have in you until your belief matches mine.”

These powerful words were given to today’s guest, Dr. Kimberly Hambrick, by her mentor. What do these words mean to you? To Kimberly, it meant adopting a new way of thinking and self-reflection. 

Empowering Others to Empower Themselves

Kimberly is a leadership development and growth coach for business owners. With over 30 years of experience in the business world, she aims to create empowered leaders by helping them bust through their negative belief systems, or BS systems. 

How did she come up with this unique approach to business coaching? It all comes back to that powerful phrase: “Borrow the belief I have in you until your belief matches mine.” In other words, you must have the same confidence in yourself as others do in you. That idea doesn’t come easily to anyone, especially business owners. 

I Am…

For years, Kimberly struggled with limiting self-beliefs and a doubting mindset. With the help of several colleagues, she started writing “I Am” statements. She realized how difficult it was to write anything positive about herself. This exercise helped put her on the right track, and now she wants to use her knowledge to help others. 

Known as the BS buster (BS being belief systems), she helps entrepreneurs bust through their negative thoughts and mindsets. She creates empowered, confident business owners ready to tackle any challenge. 

Kimberly’s favorite part about being in business is seeing that “a-ha,” transformative moment in her clients. Seeing them blossom with confidence and empowerment brings her joy and happiness. She also enjoys breaking barriers with fellow coaches by networking and collaborating with them when things get overwhelming. 

Are you ready to become a more empowered business leader? Kimberly is ready to help you! She offers assessments, courses and coaching to business owners from a variety of industries. Visit her website to learn more about her coaching services and listen to her podcast for more business wisdom.

We all face a scary transition at some point in our professional lives. Whether you want to break free of the employee lifestyle, your position is terminated or you just want to make a change, zeroing in on what you’re good at is the key to obtaining quality results. Today’s guest, David Shriner-Cahn has made that transition, and he’s here to help you, too!

David was an employee for almost 30 years as a chemical engineer. In 2006, he made the shift into entrepreneurship, starting TEND Strategic Partners and eventually the “Smashing the Plateau” podcast in 2014. He also launched the “Going Solo” podcast in 2019. His goal is to help experts start up their own coaching and consulting businesses, after years of being an employee. 

While working with professionals from all industries, he found that many of them had the knowledge to coach and consult others, but lacked the sales and marketing skills to grow their own practice. That’s where his team comes in! He’s helped experts from all over the world transition into a new career path. 

Finding a Quality Niche

You’ve probably heard thousands of people say that you have to find a niche market to be successful. While that is partly true, David believes that you can work smarter and make money by finding a quality niche.

Let’s say you want to provide marketing services to businesses. Great! There are about a billion businesses that need marketing services. Do you have the infrastructure to take on that many businesses? Of course not. But, let’s say you specialize in running Facebook ads for businesses with a $10,000 annual budget for advertising. While that is specific, it allows you to find a quality niche without becoming overwhelmed. 

Slow Down and Reflect

When we think of trauma and grief, job loss typically doesn’t come to mind. However, David emphasizes that leaving a job after years and years is a form of trauma. For years, you may have had the same job title, same coworkers and the same daily routine. Transitioning away from that is a lot to take in, especially when starting a new, entrepreneurial path. 

David’s advice to those going through that transition is this: Take some time to grieve. You probably want to hit the ground running and start building your new business, but you need time to reflect. Take time to relax, practice healthy habits and slowly begin the process of starting your business. Rushing an idea will ultimately come back to haunt you later.
