 How Did You Get the Idea For Your Business?

I created Booty Bands & Barbells thinking of the common issues that Women face during their Transformations.  I am passionate about impacting Women’s Lives for the Best by re-educating about Weight-Loss and showing the Keys to Cut Fat & Keep your Curves!  Once I found the Secrets, I had to share with every Woman! 

What Experiences Brought You to This Point in Your Life?

I wasnโ€™t always fit, happy & confident. I was shy, low self-esteem, had eating disorders, hated my cellulite, love handles and saggy booty. And I blamed my genes and age mostly.  I was only 25 years old!  After years of failing with my body transformation.  I devoted my life to finding the Secrets to my BEST BIKINI BODY by hiring Coaches, Mentors, Nutritionist, Hormone Specialist, got Certified in Personal Training and Competed in a Bikini Competition.  I learned that the typical weight-loss theories of calorie restriction, excessive cardio, dieting and endless scale watching IS A WASTE OF TIME! 


What Insecurities Came Up Along The Way? How Did You Overcome Them?

After becoming a Personal Trainer & helping 100s of Women get into their best shape, my boyfriend said “Lets bring it Online.”   I said YES, not knowing that would mean 10000s of videos later when I was already terrified of the camera and being in front of people.  I overcame it by, looking into the camera and thinking it was a woman that truly needed to hear what I had to say.  I did it for her – which turned into 100,000+ Women all around the World. 

What Are You Most Proud of Today as a Result?

I stuck by this quote: “You don’t have to be perfect to inspire others, instead you will inspire others how you handle your imperfections.”  It was what I stuck with.  I let go of my insecurities as they came up, and knew that I would achieve more – If I moved past my fears & doubts.  


What Would You Say to Anyone Facing Similar Fear or Doubt Going Towards Their Dream/Goals?

That you grow by going thru your FEARS… not around, under or avoiding!  GROW BABY GROW! Face those fears every day and embrace all the ups and downs that life WILL THROW at you.  Just expect that your journey will have highs & lows, but in the end, you will be strong and proud of yourself. 

How Did You Blossom into the Women Youโ€™re Today Physically and Mentally?

There is a movie on how a Man got trapped on Mars and endured every struggle possible to get back to earth.  When he arrived on earth… people asked him “How did you make it back, we all thought you we gone.”  He responded, “Just handle 1 problem in front of you, then when that problem is gone, handle the next. ” 

I like that story because when you get overwhelmed its because you are trying to handle all the problems at once. So instead, I just focus on that 1 obstacle in front of me, and then before you know it – you look back and didn’t even realize how far you have come!  I now have a massive worldwide brand, am apart of 8 startups, work alongside my love, travel and make money, and have changed 100,000+ lives in their health and fitness!  Extremely Rewarding!  Living my purpose and passion! 

The Answers From Danita that Can Help You Get Started With Your Business

โœ”๏ธNow that you are living in your purpose what would you say to other woman thatโ€™s trying to find their passion and purpose?ย 

Answer: Instead of trying to do it all yourself or all at once.  Just focus on 1 step at a time. Just as Mark Watney says in The Martian Movie: 

At some point, everything’s gonna go south on you… everything’s going to go south and you’re going to say, this is it. This is how I end. Now you can either accept that, or you can get to work. That’s all it is. You just begin. You do the math. You solve one problem… and you solve the next one… and then the next. And If you solve enough problems, you get to come home.
I get very overwhelmed if I think of all the things I need to do… So do that 1 thing today – finish it – and before you know it, you will look back and be impressed how far that got you. =) 

โœ”๏ธWhat insecurities came up along the way? How did you overcome them?

Answer:  a lot of insecurities.  They say your “business is only as good as your mindset.” So I focus a lot on self-development through journal writing, retreats, seminars and anything to get me out of my own way. 

โœ”๏ธDid you get emotional support from friends and family along the way with pursuing your purpose 

Answer: You will have friends & family that will support and NOT support you.  BUT as Jamie Lima says: “As an entrepreneur you’ve gotta get good at cheering for yourself, because sometimes you’re the only one doing it.  Most people cheer you on after you’ve made it.” 

โœ”๏ธWhat piece of advice would you give someone starting their own business? 

Answer: This was what carried me through… “You dont need to be perfect to inspire others, let other be inspired with how you handle your imperfections.”  
It helped me tremendously and even still to this day!  

Pay it forward!
