Today we’d like to introduce you to Jessica Collins.
Hi Jessica, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
Fitness has always been a part of my life via sports. I played basketball since I was 5. Took up soccer and track as well in HS. In college, I went back to focusing on basketball and my sports medicine degree. I practiced as an athletic trainer for 8-9 years. During that time, even though I was taking care of others, I wasn’t necessarily taking care of myself. My fitness slipped. About 8 years ago, I took back control of my fitness and fell in love with it more than ever before. I got certified as a personal trainer through NASM and found a company called Camp Gladiator. Eventually, I quit my job and began training with CG full-time. For 6 years, I ran bootcamps with Camp Gladiator, training groups of 2 up to 400! It was an amazing ride. During 2020, we went entirely virtual, and I had the opportunity to train people ALL over the world.
In 2021/2022, I began working for a company called Restore Hyper Wellness along with CG. Restore takes a holistic approach to recovery (athletic and general wellness). We offer cryotherapy, compression therapy, IV drips, IM shots, Infrared sauna, red light therapy, and esthetician services. As I began working more there and stepping more into a leadership role, I started to scale back from CG.
2023 I stepped away from CG completely and leaned into my own business (iamjessfit LLC) and training clients from my garage. I also became GM of Restore in Sugar Land. So far, 2023 has been challenging but fun! I can’t wait to see what the 2nd half of 2023 brings!
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
Building a business/creating a brand is never easy! There have been many ups and downs over the last 7 years of training and running multiple businesses, but the support of friends, family and staying organized, I have conquered any hurdle that has come my way!
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about iamjessfit LLC & Restore Hyper Wellness?
iamjessfit LLC specializes in fitness/getting stronger/living a healthier lifestyle. I train clients in person, online and offer nutrition tips as a CPT and CNC!
Restore focuses more on the recovery aspect! We offer full body and local cryotherapy, red light therapy, infrared sauna, IV and IM shots as well as hyperbaric oxygen therapy from a RN, and an array of facials and body treatments from a licensed esthetician!
We’d be interested to hear your thoughts on luck and what role, if any, you feel it’s played for you.
There is always a little bit of luck in anything we do, but I think it comes down to the passion, love, and organization that really plays a role life and business!
