    It’s beyond a sweet and bitter goodbye today as I close this chapter of my life.

    Getting Started with Corporate Wellness Made Easy with Guest Christie Hunter

    Have you been thinking that you would want to make getting more clients easier?
    Haven’t we all thought that at one time or another?! Thinking about expanding your services to corporate wellness?
    In today’s episode, I chat with Christie Hunter about how she started out building her corporate wellness practice and how she has grown it into a thriving group practice. She even shared how you can work with her too!

    ABOUT CHRISTIE HUNTER Growing up watching her mom work as a nurse, Christie always knew she wanted to help people live healthier lives. Her mission with Christie, RD is to empower clients to make changes in order to feel better, with more energy and focus — without taking the pleasure out of food. She encourages clients, "Putting nutrition as the focus can mean making small changes that can equal big results like more energy, lower blood pressure, and improved blood glucose."
    TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: Insert yourself in key meetings to learn more about everything Key phrase to tell the HR department when calling “This does not cost you or the company any extra money.” “Your employees will not pay out of pocket.” Connect with the HR Wellness department or the HR Benefits department to the corporation No free stuff - never give your services away for free or do health fairs!

Fantastic content with Action Steps to Boot!

Adrien always puts together content that is valuable, concise and interesting. She has 12+ years of experience as a business owner and has terrific insight into what works and does not work to build a private practice. I appreciate the information she gives, but also the action steps she challenges the listener with at the of each show. Her enthusiasm for what she does is contagious as well. I would definitely recommend this podcast to anyone wanting to grow and build their business!!
