We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Jenee Potter-Finnen a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Jenee thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Was there a defining moment in your professional career? A moment that changed the trajectory of your career?
I would first like to introduce myself . My name is Jenee’ And I’ve been helping my daughter run a small cleaning business for the past 16 years. It occurred to me, as I was cleaning the throne of one of my clients. Is this really the kind of impact I’m trying to make? Yes, the castle is sparkling and shiny, but is this really the impact I am trying to achieve? Perhaps, I could be accomplishing a much bigger thing here.

Jenee, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
I was very active in my former years . enjoved gymnastics.and bodybuilding.
But as life would have it, I was stay at home Mom and homeschooling, some of my children. I’m a mother of six.
Some where along the way I lost my self, and gained quite a few pounds.I tried on my own to make a change ,but had no luck.I hired a Personal Trainer.And it was the best investment of my life.I made amazing results. I became comfortable being in the gym. I Had direction and was motivated, to be the best me. I have learned to fight through times where working out does not feel comfortable. And I won’t always feel like doing something physical. I lost 65 .lbs .My Personal Trainer inspired me to do races, to finish half marathons and to try new things I never thought was possible for me. I have gained a new strength and confidence in all aspects of my life and in all I do.I have truly experienced the life changing benefits of hiring a Personal Trainer, so much so that I too wanted to become one myself
Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?
I had gained so much weight that I did not know I had a hernia, it was the size of a small football! Upon losing all of the weight it was now visible. Because of my weight lose and the visibility of it, I could now could have it repaired . Once again I went on a journey through taking small steps at making a comeback after my surgery. I made a goal to come back stronger both mentally and physically than I ever was before.
Can you tell us about what’s worked well for you in terms of growing your clientele?
The fitness industry is always being updated with new and fresh information. This is something to be excited about. Hiring a Certified Personal trainer will lead to many accomplishments for both myself , and many others who hire me. I can’t wait to help everyone on this beautiful fitness journey to a better and worthwhile life. A happier you.
