Today we’d like to introduce you to Janvieve_naemani Fogle
Hi Janvieve_Naemani , it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
I started my career as a Personal Trainer back in 2002 at Crunch Fitness, NYSC, Equinox, then Bally’s where I became head trainer and was offered higher position but I declined.
I quickly realized that I didn’t want to work for anyone else and if I was going to go that hard for someone else, why not try for myself. After I realized how much I can make on my own and keep the whole cut/commission, I was hooked!
My clients would often say I would make a killing if I branched out and did my own thing, always complimented me on how driven & ambitious and talented I was and that I would do well on my own, so, shortly after that, I did.
.
Spending time with my kids when they were younger was very important to me, so as an entrepreneur, it gave me the freedom to be there to make their breakfast, attend their trips, pal events, have them come home to me cooking dinner and the flexibility to work when I wanted to.
.
It didn’t stop there though, I had many side gigs as a real estate agent, model, did a few office gigs when money was tight, but always went back to my love for health and fitness which actually saved my life.
I’ve always had a love for dancing since I was 17, so I combined that with working out and created my exer-dance boot classes which were very fun and attracted many people.
.
Running cross country in high school kept me out of trouble and focused on my goals which then led me to get a track scholarship after 4 years. I became one of the best cross country runners & it gave me the foundation of discipline, persistence and focus, which I still use today and share with all those who cross my path.
.
In 2012 we were evicted and I find myself creating new ways to make money. So I came out with a fitness calendar, bartered for a photo shoot and 50° weather on the beach, hosted my calendar release, made $800 in 57 minutes, whoa!!
I took that money, flipped it and self-published my 1st book, Single, Sexy & Satisfied, got myself on FOX5, a host of radio shows and became a beast at networking marketing and branding.
.
I wrote my first book while being evicted and second book while living in a room, so to you reading this, ALWAYS remember, there’s NOTHING that you can’t do, be or have!!
To all my young moms, I became one at 20 and at the time of this writing I am 50 years young, and gratefully still mistaken for my 30s, that’s due to a healthy lifestyle and protecting my peace, my son is 29 and my daughter is 25, they are my best friends.
.
Fast forward 12 years later, I’ve excelled from personal trainer to speaker, author, and life coach. It is an honor to help thousands across the globe turn their struggle to strength.
I would love to help you do the same. Feel free to take a peek at my links, and if my story resonates, don’t hesitate to reach out!
Believe in yourself and trust YOUR journey and your vision even if no one else understands it, that’s why God gave it to you, it wasn’t a conference call. Keep going, keep showing up!
.
If you would like to book me for your next event, panel, podcast or collaboration, send me an email at fitmentals@gmail.com
Thank you & Blessings
Warmly

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
I left my marriage with $12 and two kids to feed I took a leap of faith, didn’t know what was waiting for me. I found myself living in a room in 2013 sometimes not enough money to eat.
My landlord lived with me and some days I didn’t even have the rent which was only $150 per week even at my lowest I kept my integrity when offers from men were coming from everywhere.
.
I hit ROCK BOTTOM 28 times and yes I counted! That’s when I started writing my second book back in 2018, released it in 2019. Saved my money, fixed my credit score excited attracting or speaking engagements and booking clients for life coaching and in 2020 right before the pandemic was able to move into my beautiful apartment.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
I am a Fitness/Lifestyle Coach, Speaker, Author & Entrepreneur
I help others turn their struggle to strength mentally and physically while leveling up personally and professionally.
My most proud accomplishments are the tragedies that I turned into triumphs and my kids sticking by my side and getting through it with me.
I’m extremely proud of my children for using the skills that I instilled in them when they were young that they both utilize this day, makes me soooo proud even on the challenging days.
They are both successful at what they do, strong, resilient, loving, supportive, smart, funny independent and driven. My heart is full SINGLE MOM, one of the most challenging yet rewarding titles of all.
Any advice for finding a mentor or networking in general?
Find someone who is doing what you want to do, let them Inspire you, take action everyday, read the books, take the courses, attend the conferences and of course hire the coach, hello here I am!
