I was given the opportunity to interview Janelle Mughannam, here’s what Janelle “Coco” had to say ….
At first our account started as a fitness account that shares tips and secrets about fitness. Today we transformed it into a start-up business with clients from all over the world. Our mission is to guide people towards a healthier lifestyle. Every body is unique; each with its own strengths and limitations. Our method is to motivate and inspire you in any way possible. Our aim is not only to transform your body, but to influence you in making more mindful decisions when it comes to your health. We believe in finding the pleasurable side of fitness, and while there may be a sore muscle or two along the way, the amount of fun and levels of energy you will experience will far exceed the discomfort.
I learned to work harder and to manage my time. Running a start-up business by yourself is difficult. My sister and I do all the work ourselves and it definitely taught us to not procrastinate and to be better every single day.
Beauty is something we cannot see because its from within ๐
We love it! I feel like it has also brought us closer:) Plus working with a sibling is easier because you can fight and argue about something and be fine 2 seconds later lol. We have similar minds so we are always bouncing ideas off of each other. We also have duties and individual jobs within our company which helps us stay on top on everything!
Good question!!! My sister and I love @stef_fit. We see ourselves in her and we would love to work with her one day!
DO NOT RUSH. I feel like when I rush or push things they never work out as planned. If you want to start your own business there are alot of conditions you must accomplish first before diving head first. You need a plan, you need a targeted audience and you need an investment! Take your time to make sure everything you release is perfect and neat.
We love receiving messages and emails from girls who have seen results using our plans. That is probably the most satisfying thing about what we do. Seeing others happy, motivated, and inspired from FITWSIS is the icing on the cake. Thats when we know we made it!
Currently I am just trying to hustle as much as I can NOW so I can be great LATER.
I have really sensitive skin so I take my time with my skin care routine though the day. I love taking myself to the spa or salon to get pampered every now and then ๐ I think its important to take care of yourself, especially us girls
I guess youโll have to wait and see:)
I feel its because not enough women are supporting women who are on the top. If we have more women out there inspiring and changing the world then us women who concur. The future is female ๐
SPONTANEOUS!!I am always always up for new adventures and experiences.
I majored in Business Marketing and I have a concentration in Wine Studies. Yes wine:) I grew up in Sonoma County (near Napa which is the wine country of America).
Beauty must-haves: Sunscreen + Moisturizer | Fitness must-haves: Water bottle + Music
My mother. Sheโs the most hard working person I know. I aspire to be as great as her one day.
I love cheese platters with fruit!
I love youtube (even though I do not do it as much) because it showcases my personality ๐
