We had the good fortune of connecting with Sarah Fucinari and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Sarah, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
Starting my own business happened organically after I finally found success on my health journey. Though I had tried every diet out there and even went to the extreme measure of having weight loss surgery I did not find sustainable success until I hired a health coach. Instead of restriction and beating up my body he taught me how to fuel my goals and optimize my internal health which I now know was the missing piece all along. As I learned from my coach and found success by following his teachings I was eager to learn everything I could and would share with anyone who would listen. I soon began helping others which then turned into a side business and in less than two years I grew so much I could no longer continue with my corporate career and took the leap into running Team Fit With Me full time.
Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Team Fit With Me LLC is a concierge health coaching service including nutrition, training, mindset, and lifestyle coaching for a complete transformation, inside and out. There is nothing intuitive about this lifestyle and we take an approach that is heavy on education, optimizing internal health, and plans customized for each and every client. Unlike other programs we provide unlimited contact with your team of experts for comprehensive care and unmatched support.
I am most proud of the the education and support we provide as I do not know of any other program like it. Though it took time for us to perfect the model we are now a very well oiled machine with an unmatched success rate. I can confidently say nobody cares for their clients like we do and everyone on the team gets pumped to come to work every day; we even have a name for it, “Fit With Me fever” 🙂
Truthfully the biggest challenge has been keeping up with the growth as good news travels fast and almost 100% of new clients are referred from another existing client. I have hired various mentors along the way to ensure the client experience remains excellent and have continued to invest in my education as a top priority.
Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Well since I’ve only lived in Arizona for two years and have dedicated most of that time to growing my business I would love to explore the state! I think it’s so cool that you can hike, ski, swim, wine & dine without ever leaving the state and would love to take the time to experience it more.
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
My shoutout is dedicated to Jason Theobald who is the health coach that changed my life. After trying and failing at every attempt to lose weight and get healthy I found Jason as my last resort. His approach was completely different and my experience being coached by him not only transformed my health and physique but completely changed the trajectory of my life, inspiring me to pay it forward and give others the gift of health as well.
