Imagine having a role as a gym director and then shifting to being an online fitness coach. How would that feel? Today’s podcast guest took the quantum leap and went all in as an online fitness trainer while building her own coaching business.

With a background in kinesiology and 16 years of experience in the industry, Kaylee Bennett–one of our coaches in the Online Trainer Mentorship (OTM)--shares her journey from in-person training at a gym to running a flourishing online coaching business.

After COVID-19 disrupted her career path as a gym director, Kaylee pivoted to an online model and never looked back.

She discusses the mindset shift that transformed her approach, how structured guidance from the OTM program helped her scale and streamline her business, and the benefits she’s now reaping from her bold move.
