Life & Work with Jessica Kaufman

Today we’d like to introduce you to Jessica Kaufman.

Hi Jessica, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstories.
I became passionate about wellness after having my son. I struggled with mental health, and my physical health was one way that allowed me to regain a lot of control. Once I realized my passion, I went back to school to nutrition, got my bachelor’s, and worked for a holistic health food store.

From there I worked as a personal trainer because I wanted more experience approaching health from all angles. Then after getting my experience there, I decided to launch my own business where I had the freedom to help people from angles of healthy living. I love what I do now because of the variety of being an entrepreneur. I do one-on-one coaching, teaching, as well as consulting for other online coaches. I feel very fortunate to have that freedom.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Absolutely not, haha. It never is though. The struggle is always just the learning curve, right? Wherever there is a problem there is the solution, it’s just waiting for you to find it. I’d say my biggest struggles have just been learning new skills along the way. Starting your own business you have to wear A LOT of hats, and some of them might be out of your expertise. This is also why I LOVE it though, I always am being challenged to grow and learn.

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
I am a “Healthy Living Coach” and I teach and coach others on how to optimize their health and wellbeing. I am most proud of my ability to support people in doing it in a manageable way. I’ve prided myself in learning in-depth the art of behavior change and mindset, and how they play a role in making changes that last.
