Today we’d like to introduce you to Brooke Tarasowsky.
So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
About five years ago, I was finishing my masters in Social Work and for my last internship, I worked at a skilled nursing facility. While working with patients who were 18 years old to geriatrics, I saw how important it was to start making healthier choices and the need to taking care of your body at a younger age. That year, I searched for a trainer who I felt could help me reach my personal goals. Our focus on working together was not to just lose weight but was to learn how to maintain a healthy lifestyle while incorporating fitness and food into my daily routine. My trainer, Cheetah worked with me on a specific fitness and meal plan that worked for my body. Over the years, I have worked on maintaining that healthy lifestyle by finding workouts that I enjoy doing and different recipes that are the results from working with my trainer and living a healthier lifestyle people around me began to jump on board with my trainer and wanted to know how to get a body like mine. It was that moment where I realized that by showing people the progress I made, I can help other people as well.
About two years ago, I started a health and fitness Instagram @pintsizebt. This platform allowed me to connect with like-minded individuals who also wanted to live a healthier lifestyle. Through this Instagram platform, I decided to take my cooking skills to the next level and started a small personalized meal prep business in New York. I found that helping people learn portion control and eating healthier options really helped them feel good about themselves.
Has it been a smooth road?
I have not faced any meal prep business challenges yet but from my Instagram, I try not to get caught up with things that don’t relate to what I am promoting on my feed. I try and stay as real as possible and I feel that authenticity really shows for itself.
So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the PintsizeBT story. Tell us more about it.
Meal Prep: I specialize in personalizing meal plans for people according to their dietary restrictions and health goals. I am most proud of the results that I see from my clients. I love how happy they feel with themselves after eating healthy and staying on track. I feel that since I gear my company towards each client specifically that it sets me apart from a bigger meal service.
How do you think the industry will change over the next decade?
I see the fitness and health industry growing tremendously and people continuing to live a healthier lifestyle by following new trends.
