Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Jonathan Woods. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Jonathan, appreciate you joining us today. Let’s kick things off with your mission – what is it and what’s the story behind why it’s your mission?

Partner Wellness, LLC started as a passion project to serve people throughout the world with Online Personal Training, something that was growing in popularity in the fitness world as technology evolved with live video chat in the early 2000’s. Back in the days of Skype, it was something I tried out when I was getting too busy to drive around to my client’s houses in busy Miami, Florida

During my time as a personal trainer, I learned of just how many people there are around world that are excellent, talented, generous Wellness experts that have been here all along, ready to help whoever they can. It was a realization of absolute good news: there are already enough Wellness experts around the world to support every person that is willing to connect with them! They just needed some help getting the word out. With the power of the internet, we have everything we need to reach clients on a global scale. So, with my experience in fitness coaching, working at wellness facilities, and then with photography and videography, I began recording Yoga Instructors, Personal Trainers, Meditation practitioners, and more, to demonstrate their expertise online, so that the world might be inspired by them to not only practice Wellness in their own way, but also to create relationships that allow them to thrive together.

Now, Partner Wellness has grown into a company that bonds people and Wellness experts around the world through videos, photos, and audio productions featured on various social media platforms.

Jonathan, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

I’m a passionate fitness instructor, musician, and media producer with an always-keep-learning philosophy. Since graduating with a Master’s Degree in Sport Management at Barry University in Miami, Florida, I’ve spent over a decade in the wellness field as a Certified Personal Trainer, Fitness Nutrition Specialist, and multiple other certifications in fitness and wellness. I’ve learned so many beautiful things about people and their ability to completely transform their lives by their every day life choices.
My mission is to create relationships between people and wellness experts, so that every person knows someone who supports their well-being.

It is my firm belief that finding inner peace leads to outer peace, evident in our relationships with all people, places, and things in the world. Because of this simple principle, it is of the utmost importance that we simply practice feeling good in our own way, however we can. All people have the ability to demonstrate and live by example what gives them inner peace, which is a powerful yet subtle means of influencing others to be the best version of themselves.

Are there any books, videos, essays or other resources that have significantly impacted your management and entrepreneurial thinking and philosophy?

There are many that I love and have helped me tremendously! I highly recommend the books, “Connected” by James Fowler, “Spark” by John Ratey, “The Go Giver” by Bob Burg, the Abraham Hicks series and similar books, and many more! Or if you’re really dedicated, go by a personal trainer’s textbook such as “Essentials of Personal Fitness Training” by NASM. You don’t need to become a personal trainer to learn what we know!

What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?

Not everyone gets a trainer to have the best workouts known to humankind. Sometimes, in fact often times, people just want someone to hold them accountable to show up for their workout and have someone fun to be there with them, and that’s totally cool. Nearly any reason you want to have a professional with you on your fitness or wellness journey is perfectly acceptable!
