Today we’d like to introduce you to Nicolas and Monica Leon.
Nicolas and Monica, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
We began this new venture 5 1/2 years ago. Before this, we had taken the traditional route. Monica and I both graduated from University of Miami. She got a business Admin degree and I got a dual degree in Economics and Business Admin.
She was working as a Grants Administrator and I was a clinic manager until I was laid off. This situation was what essentially pushed us to look for other options and that’s when we began what we do today.
We began working with a nutrition company and began our business as Health coaches. We started this project of fitness communities where we live in Weston, FL with a goal of impacting our community and motivating them to start a healthy, active lifestyle. We wanted to build a fitness community that would serve as a support group for all the members to reach their fitness goals without commitment. Our workouts are free which motivates people to start, and we offer our health coach services to help them reach their fitness goals. We first began with a small group and in a few months, we had over 90 people working out and getting healthier with our help.
We now have fitness communities all over South Florida and even in other states around the country. Our project grew to the point that now we both have taken into this mission together, no longer working for corporate America and best of all, through what we’re passionate about; Fitness and helping people. We currently are in charge of the main workout group located in Vista View Park (Broward) which takes place every Tuesday and Thursday at 9:30am.
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?
As any business venture, starting is never easy. Some of the struggles we found was gaining the trust of the community and having them participate in our programs. It took quite some time to get our project known locally in the city of Weston, but little by little, we began to grow, thanks to word of mouth from the few participants who started with us.
As more people began to join us, the trust grew and we began to expand our project into other local communities.
So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the Unstoppable Fit club story. Tell us more about the business.
We are Health coaches and specialize in helping people reach their health and fitness goals thru nutrition and exercise. We have specific programs to help people in their journey and with our fitness community programs, help them stay motivated and focused.
We are proud of what we have built because we have been able to impact our communities massively and helped hundreds of people become healthier and happier!
I can confidently say that what sets us apart is our family atmosphere that we create among us! Everyone who joins for the first time immediately feels at home and comfortable to share their journey.
Has luck played a meaningful role in your life and business?
I don’t believe in luck, I believe in hard work. We have found that the harder we work, the “luckier” we get.
