Key Quotes from This Episode
- “I would say this industry is far from saturated. It may feel that way when we are in our own little bubble. We are focused on our little world, right? Because that’s who we are looking at. We are looking at other Health Coaches. But, actually, the need is more greater than ever.” -Brooke Jeffries
