Today we’d like to introduce you to Barbara Gunnells.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Barbara. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
Six years ago, I was looking for a natural solution to treat my pain. I discovered food can be inflammatory as well as anti-inflammatory. I also learned about changes that have been done to our food in the United States since the 1990s and how these changes are literally making us sick and tired. Combine that with our stressful lifestyles and environmental toxins, most of us have no idea how good we are supposed to feel. I’m in my 50’s and feel better than I did in my 30’s and it’s now my passion to increase awareness and educate others through speaking engagements.
I’m also aligned with a nutritional system that makes it simple to get good nutrition in and toxins out helping our bodies function as they were intended. When our bodies are balanced, inflammation is reduced, energy and sleep are improved, and optimal weight is achieved.
We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc. – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
Like all worthwhile endeavors, it’s not been easy. The largest obstacle is that I run this business alongside an already full life including working full time in patient care as a Physical Therapist, so it’s easy to get distracted and it can be a lot to juggle at times. I’m blessed that my passion and purpose fuel me.
So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the Get Healthy With Barb story. Tell us more about the business.
Get Healthy With Barb is committed to building relationships and providing accountability along with education to make better daily choices for improved health. I specialize in helping people reduce pain and inflammation through daily life choices, though most people seek me out for weight loss. I’m also aligned with a nutritional system that makes it simple to get “the good stuff in and the bad stuff out” and I”m known for not being sales”y”, but providing value through education first. What sets me apart from others in similar roles and businesses is that I am most focused on education and specialize in providing that through speaking engagements.
Has luck played a meaningful role in your life and business?
LOL, I’m not sure what parts have been or otherwise. I do know I am blessed with amazing relationships of other business builders and entrepreneurs and we learn from each other as well as support and lift each other up. I could definitely not have done any of my business on my own.
