The Healthpreneur Show with Yuri Elkaim

Welcome back to another awesome episode of the Healthpreneur Podcast! Today we’re going to dive behind the scenes of an extremely accomplished Healthpreneur’s journey. Danielle Brooks, author of, "Good Decisions” is a nutritional therapist, a clinical herbalist, and the founder of a successful wellness clinic called Lake Washington Wellness. 

Danielle spent the beginning of her schooling and professional career being told that she couldn’t do things, which propelled her to push for her dreams despite uncertainty, fear, and a pesky ego (who can relate?). She learned that by leaning on trusted relationships and hiring the right people, she could reach heights she never thought possible – and enjoy the process.

As entrepreneurs, we’ve all been there; we’ve been told “no,” we’ve been discouraged, and we’ve had moments where shit hit the fan. But what matters is how we choose to grow from those experiences. Tune in as Danielle and I reflect on how self-doubt inhibited her growth, how she moved past it to get what she truly wanted, and why she she’s so excited about helping people find peace with food and their bodies. 

In this episode, Danielle and I discuss:

• Her mother’s parting words and how they impacted her.
• Ignoring when others say you can’t do something.
• What you need to start a business.
• Swapping out fear for excitement.
• Hiring good people and hiring out your weaknesses.

6:30 – 10:30 - Gaining confidence and excitement through experience

10:30 – 15:30 - The initial business mistakes Danielle made and how she fixed them

18:30 – 26:00 – The Rapid Five

Hey there, Healthpreneurs, and welcome to episode 132 of the Healthpreneur Podcast!

Today I’m going to share with you some business lessons that I learned from my recent vacation to Alaska – one of which dawned on me atop a beautiful glacier! Alaska is an incredible place; it really gives you a unique perspective on life, business, and our place in this world.

The lessons I learned in Alaska revolve around positive energy, the law of attraction, and self-care. Without all three of these things, you’ll always feel like you’re grinding - and you’ll always be losing an uphill battle. There’s nothing like standing on a glacier and looking into the abyss to put things into perspective, right? 

If you feel like you’re zoned into your business and it’s time to take a step back, tune in. Get reacquainted with the big picture. Remind yourself what matters most. Remember that you’re an entrepreneur because you desire impact, results for yourself and others, and – perhaps most importantly – freedom. 

In this episode, I will discuss:

1:00 – 3:00 - My trip to Alaska and the lessons I learned

3:00 – 4:00 - Disconnecting while your business runs itself

4:00 – 7:00 - Energy, attraction, and tending to ourselves for optimal results

7:00 – 10:30 - Lesson from a glacier: Seeing the big picture and getting perspective

10:30 – 14:00 - Setting up your business so you have the space and freedom to recharge

Welcome to a solo round of the Healthpreneur Podcast. Today I’m discussing the topic of idea versus execution. Where would you place your bet? Me? Idea. All day long. 

Some people think flawless execution is more important than a great idea. But the thing is that there is a cap on execution. Once you’ve got it down, there’s nothing left to do except, well, generate more ideas to keep growing! You see, the possibility for better, stronger, and more innovative ideas is endless.  

And you, as the owner and thought-leader of your business, have the power to generate these powerful ideas. Execution can be delegated to someone else – but ideas can’t. Tune in to hear my stance on the idea versus execution debate and get clear on where you’re needed most in your business.  

1:00 – 2:30 - The two sides to the debate and what they mean 

2:30 – 5:00 - Why some people succeed and others don’t when using the same process 

5:00 – 6:30 - Why it always comes down to the big idea 

6:30 – 8:30 - Delegating the execution process and using your brain for something else 

8:30 – 9:00 - Social media examples  

9:00 – 11:00 - Why great ideas are endless and execution comes second
