Hormones, Labs, Acupuncture, Massage & More: Kelley Nemiro Built Vegas’ Only All-In-One Wellness Hub
November 7, 2025 • 41 mins
If you’ve ever felt dismissed, rushed, or patched up with a prescription that didn’t solve the problem, this conversation will feel like a deep breath. We sit down with Kelly Nemiro to unpack how she’s building Rhea, a women-only wellness space in Summerlin that starts with data and ends with real relief. No guesswork, no generic plans—just diagnostics, smart coaching, and the right mix of treatments to help women sleep better, think clearer, and feel like themselves again.
Kelly takes us inside the model: breath tests for metabolic health, blood and stool panels, and adrenal stress testing that inform a credits-based plan for IV therapy, acupuncture, colonics, massage, low-impact fitness, Reiki, and guided meditation. We talk about daily realities too—why a women-only environment creates a calmer, more focused place to heal; how a hybrid approach blends at-home convenience with the connection of in-person classes; and the messy, unglamorous work of licensing, hiring, and building a multidisciplinary team in Las Vegas.
Hormones are the throughline. From thyroid slowdowns and insulin resistance to progesterone dips that wreck sleep, Kelly explains what to test, what to watch, and how targeted support pairs with sustainable lifestyle changes. We get practical on habit formation—the one-thing rule for 30 days beats all-or-nothing sprints—and we tackle diet myths with a simple frame: protein and healthy fats build hormones, steady carbs fuel the brain, and strength training won’t “bulk” women. Along the way, Kelly shares hard-won business lessons on burnout, trusting your gut, and hiring for your blind spots, plus honest talk about routines, support systems, and finding balance through community work.

SPEAKER_01 (00:00):
Welcome to Vegas Circle Podcast with your hosts
Pocky and Chris.
We are people who are passionateabout business, success, and
culture.
And this is our platform toshowcase people in our city who
are making it happen.
On today's podcast, we'rewelcoming a special guest.
It's been five years since she'slast joined us.
She's turned Wellness by Kellyinto a movement, and now she's
launching her new business, Rea,which is in Summerlin, for one
of the Vegas most iconicfamilies.
(00:21):
She's carving her own lane.
Let's welcome to the circle,Miss Kelly Nomero.
Or Mrs.
Kelly Nomero.
I shouldn't say Miss.
Thank you.
SPEAKER_04 (00:27):
Thank you guys for having me back.
I'm really excited to be here.
SPEAKER_01 (00:29):
Yeah, a lot has happened in five years.
Last time we had you on, we werein a pandemic on Zoom, and the
world was crazy in 2020.
SPEAKER_04 (00:37):
I look back at that time and I'm like, wow, where
first of all none of us evenknew like how dark it was gonna
get.
That was like insane.
And also it was, I think I hadjust started Walmart by Kelly
the first time I spoke to youguys.
And I just think about how muchhas happened.
We're kind of chatting aboutthat before we hit record here.
(00:58):
Like in five years, had like Iknow a lot has happened with you
guys.
You guys have moved twice now.
Yeah.
Well, I've had three kids andnow I'm starting a you know
retail business, so a lot canhappen half a decade.
SPEAKER_01 (01:11):
Straight up, yeah.
Before, were you just strictlyonline, right?
Yeah.
Well I missed by Kelly.
So you were strictly online andthen you would kind of move
around with coaching and thingsalong those lines, right?
SPEAKER_04 (01:19):
Yeah, exactly.
When I first started, and Ididn't even, it was funny
because I had my son in January,and that was when I finished up
my coaching license, not knowingwhat I was gonna do with it yet.
And I started an online kind ofmovement membership.
Started just as Pilates, onlinePilates because I also got
certified as a Pilatesinstructor while I was pregnant.
(01:42):
And I was like, I don't knowwhat I'm gonna do with this, but
I know I don't want to work incasino marketing.
Love my dad, but that was justnot it for me.
And I had no idea that we weregonna be locked down for like
however long, almost up to twoyears.
Or in and out.
Yeah.
And so it turned out to beperfect timing, and just what a
lot of people needed was to beable to, you know, have movement
(02:03):
in classes like that at home.
So it worked out.
SPEAKER_03 (02:05):
Yeah.
Do you feel like you really showdrafting off of that?
You know, because obviously whenyou started there, you know,
COVID has changed a lot ofthings, specifically from that
online space.
Right.
At first it was we don't knowwhat to do, move remote.
And now you're shifting backinto more kind of people are
back into that personalizedspace.
Like, you know, part of thattrajectory is great, but also
I'm sure there's like a littlebit of like nervousness once
that starts to slow down alittle bit.
(02:26):
Like you see with some of theselike Peloton corporations and
things like that.
SPEAKER_04 (02:30):
Yeah, for sure.
I have what I have reallywelcomed into my own life is
kind of this hybrid model whereon the days where I'm super busy
and I'm like, shit, like I haveno time, like of 20 minutes.
I'm gonna do a workout at homebecause something is better than
nothing.
But then, and I'll do somethingon my app.
But then, you know, when I cango into a class and be around
(02:52):
other people, like I think weall I'm not speaking like for
everybody, but for everybodythat I talk to, we all want that
human connection.
We thrive on that, we crave it.
And so when I can get that, Ireally do try to.
Like Sunday, I went to a reallygreat class with my assistant
who's now become a really goodfriend of mine.
And I think where the idea kindof for Rhea actually came from
(03:16):
was as I was coaching, I wasoften referring people out.
And so it was like, oh, well,you can go get acupuncture here,
or go get a clonic there, or goget some IVs here, or use this
nurse practitioner to prescribeyou progesterone.
And so it was almost less soabout the in-person thing and
(03:36):
more so about, which I really dovalue, but and more so about the
need for, I think everyone hasthis need for efficiency in like
in the day and age that we livein.
And so I'm like, where can I,can I make a place where you can
do it all in one?
So to answer your question, yes,I think that there is a little
bit of like, I think that we'reall, we all want to move
(03:57):
offline.
Like there's Zoom does notcreate the same sense of like
fulfillment as or like an onlineworkout as like going in person
and feeling that sense ofaccomplishment.
But I also think that there's aneed there, you know, a modern
day need for it sometimes.
SPEAKER_03 (04:13):
So the hybrid model is seemed like definitely where
everybody's going to.
The best of both worlds.
Efficiencies as well as you knowthe ability to connect.
SPEAKER_01 (04:21):
Yeah.
Exactly.
Talk about Rhea.
So what what are you guys gonnabe doing there?
I'm looking online, it looksabsolutely amazing.
SPEAKER_04 (04:27):
Thank you.
I'm really excited.
It's gonna be amazing.
And I was talking about it todaybecause it feels like something
that I made for myself, which Ifeel like the best powerful
businesses come from is a needthat you yourself have.
And so when I think about mylife and how busy I am with
three kids and you know, tryingto run a house and also trying
(04:49):
to run a business, I I want tobe as efficient with my time as
possible.
And so creating this space wherewomen can come and take care of
themselves.
And I think that's the first andmost important point is that
Rhea is a women's only space,which is very niche and unique
in that we really don't have alot of places like that in
Vegas.
And it was a really toughdecision to make because we're
like, we could get persecutedfor this.
Like people are gonna be like,why are you only doing women?
(05:11):
You're excited.
SPEAKER_01 (05:11):
Chris and I were like, how can we sign up?
Yeah, that was the first thingwe were gonna ask.
How can we get all thesetreatments, man?
So we were gonna hate on you.
Yeah, for sure.
SPEAKER_04 (05:19):
It's like you're excluding men, and it's like,
you know, there are plenty ofmen's clinics in town where you
can go and get your not as goodas Ray.
SPEAKER_01 (05:25):
I was looking at, and I'm being serious.
You guys got some you havereally good stuff, yeah.
I appreciate that.
SPEAKER_04 (05:30):
So yeah, it's women only.
And the reason we did that isbecause I feel like women are
the caretakers for everyone intheir life for the most part.
We take care of our spouse, wetake care of our kids, we take
care of our work.
Um, and it's really hard for usto find the time to be able to
disconnect and actually takecare of ourselves.
And so I thought about this inmy head.
(05:52):
I was like, because we weremaking the decision.
I'm like, well, would I likewould I want Chad there if I was
like really trying to relax?
SPEAKER_01 (05:59):
You sound like my wife, dude.
Jesus.
You sound literally like whatSavannah would say to you.
SPEAKER_00 (06:06):
100%.
I guess you you're 100% right.
I can't hate on that.
I like it.
SPEAKER_04 (06:10):
That's true.
Would I want him there?
And I was like, I love him somuch, but if I was truly trying
to be relaxed, I would be, if Iwas he was there, I'd be like, I
wonder if he's having a goodtime.
I wonder if he his how'streatment's going.
And so we're like, no, womenonly.
And so that's the first point.
The second point is like we arereally focused on looking at you
as an individual and taking careof you from a holistic
(06:32):
standpoint.
So we're not just fitness andmeditation, which a lot of
places are, or a sauna and coldplunge, like a lot of places
are, or like just, you know,doing your labs and giving you a
readout on that.
We're doing it all.
So we're you're coming in andyou're first gonna get the
diagnostic piece, which isreally, in my eyes, super
important for us to be able togive you quality of care.
(06:55):
So diagnostics, meaning we havea breath test that looks at your
resting metabolic rate and a lotof your metabolic health
markers.
And then we also have bloodwork, stool testing, adrenal
stress testing, that's a salivatest.
And we're looking at all of thatto tell you, okay, here is why
you might not be feeling like ahundred percent.
(07:16):
Because I feel like through mycoaching practice, so many women
who I have seen over the yearsaren't feeling 100%.
They're exhausted, they'reburnout, they're anxious,
they're bloated.
And so it's like, okay, here'swhat we're seeing, and we're
giving you a root cause as towhy, where a lot of times your
doctor doesn't do that becausethey're running everything
(07:38):
through insurance.
SPEAKER_01 (07:39):
Yep.
SPEAKER_04 (07:39):
And they're taking seven minutes with you and
they're not.
SPEAKER_01 (07:42):
Sometimes less than that.
Yeah, literally.
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (07:44):
They're not giving you the time of day.
And then from there, we arerunning a system off of credits.
And so you can use your creditsat Raya towards like anything
that you want and what your labwork is pointing you in the
direction of.
So let's say you're reallyexhausted, your adrenals are
burnt out.
Maybe you do an IV that'shelpful for that, and you get
some, you do a couple of Reikicircles and meditations and some
(08:07):
deep tissue massage.
But maybe you're somebody whohas digestive issues.
So you're gonna do some colonicsand nutrition coaching, and you
are going to do some low-impactfitness classes.
So it's really based off of yourlab work, what you want, and how
you want to focus on caring foryourself while you're there.
(08:30):
And then us like helping youassist with that with our app
outside.
So you're gonna be able to trackyour results and use some of our
tools and templates outside of apractice.
That's a great idea.
Very organic.
Sorry, that's really long.
SPEAKER_01 (08:42):
No, but it's it makes a lot of sense because
it's it's literally organic andit's scripted to specifically
what you want.
You're not just thrown in, it'sliterally set up that way.
SPEAKER_03 (08:50):
Yeah, and that's kind of my question.
How do you you know how do youdevelop that script?
Right.
I think that's an important partof the piece of it.
And obviously, you have abackground and you have a good
education in this space, butwhen you're developing you know,
a space, there's only a limitamount of things you can have,
right?
Yeah, but in the world, there'sa million things that you could
put in it in this health space.
You know, how do you develop orunderstand what what you feel is
the most important pieces to putinside of the business?
SPEAKER_04 (09:11):
Let me just tell you the like when you said we
brought that up, like I have toeat today alone, like the
licensing piece of all of thisbetween all of the things that
we've decided to put into thisspace has been hell is a nice.
Because like even getting amassage license in the city of
(09:32):
Las Vegas is so hard.
Red tape on everything.
Uh-huh.
And so, with all of that, it'slike we have to have a business
license, a massage license, likea separate license for our
medical provider to be able topractice in a space that is not
owned by a medically licensedperson such as myself.
And so that part has been reallychallenging.
But I think it was kind of goesback to what I was saying around
(09:57):
when I was coaching and likewhat people were asking for.
And a lot of the things alsothat I do with my own time that
I have seen us a huge differenceand like really move the needle
for me in terms of how I feel inmy body.
And so those two things informedme of like, okay, what are we
gonna put in the practice?
(10:18):
And I was like, okay, well, Iknow every time I've tried to
get pregnant, I've doneacupuncture, and like that has
been a thing that works for me.
So we're gonna have acupuncturethere.
I get a deep tissue massageevery week because like it is so
healing for my nervous system.
We're gonna have that there.
I did like lymphatic massage fora really long time to help with
my digestive system.
We're gonna have that there.
(10:38):
So kind of going through thosethings of like what I've
recommended to people and whatI've done myself.
And and yeah, I think that likejust having knowledgeable
practitioners who know whatthey're doing and who can really
give the client like the bestservice possible is the way that
(10:59):
we decided to go.
And for just for me personally,I struggled really badly for a
long time with hypothyroidism.
And in over the last decade,it's all of these like different
things that I've tried that havegotten me to a place where now
I'm on the lowest dose ofmedication possible, whether
it's diet, movement, and some ofthese practices.
And so I know not everybody whocomes to us is going to be
(11:21):
struggling with that, butthey're things that can help
everybody.
SPEAKER_01 (11:24):
So that's interesting.
That's huge.
Yeah.
So talk a little bit about thefocus on hormones and women's
health, right?
So I don't know much about that.
So how can you kind of give it abreakdown of why you focused on
that?
SPEAKER_04 (11:35):
Yeah.
So 95% of women will strugglewith a hormonal imbalance in
their lifetime.
SPEAKER_02 (11:40):
Okay.
SPEAKER_04 (11:41):
Whether that is something like me with
hypothyroidism, which means yourthyroid is not functioning
properly, which controls yourmetabolism, how hot or cold you
are, the rate of growth of yourhair, skin, and nails.
So really impacts how you'refeeling in your body, or
something like insulinresistance, which, like, I think
it's now like one in three orfour Americans struggle with,
(12:04):
which is uh, you know, ametabolic disease, or something
like PCOS, infertility, all ofthese different things that
women go through.
And kind of like we were talkingabout, most doctors are being
like, here's a birth controlpill, or like, here is a
prescription for you to sleep,because we're putting a band-aid
(12:24):
on something rather than digginga little bit deeper and trying
to find what the root cause ofwhy you are not sleeping.
Why are you feeling anxious?
Why do you need a birth controlpill to regulate your periods?
We want to at Rayo and throughmy practice, we want to know
why.
So that way we can heal theunderlying cause to give you a
(12:46):
sustainable result versusputting a band-aid on it and
you're on a pill for the rest ofyour life.
That's not like helpful.
SPEAKER_01 (12:53):
That's what a moneymaker is.
But you're figuring out, yeah,that's crazy.
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (12:56):
And it's so much of it can really be resolved with
diet and lifestyle changes.
And so many people don't knowthat because they're not
educated and they're notinformed.
And that doesn't mean that atRhea we're not giving you the
assistance that is gonna makeyou feel better firsthand.
(13:17):
But for example, like if youwere to go into a Western
doctor's office and again, youwere like, I'm really not
sleeping, like I I'm waking upthree times a night, like this
fucking sucks.
Excuse my language, it's nottrue.
That's true.
Like, I was actually feelinglike that after I had my
daughter.
And what most doctors would dois be like, here's a
prescription for Ambien, orhere's a prescription for
(13:38):
Trazodone, see you never refillthis forever.
What was going on for me, andwhat's going on for a ton of
women, especially in their late30s and 40s, is we start having
this decline in progesterone,which is our hormone that helps
us to sleep.
It helps us to feel calm, ithelps us to feel less anxious.
(14:00):
And if you don't know that,you're just gonna take the
sleeping pill and go on yourmarried way.
But for me, after I had mydaughter, I took progesterone
for three months, one capsule atnight, and I slept better.
I felt better.
And so it's not like we're gonnabe like, oh, just do these diet
and lifestyle changes and waitand don't feel good until you
(14:20):
know they that kicks in.
Because it can take 90 days.
Yeah, we're gonna help supportyou now, and then we're also
gonna give you the lifestylechanges to make that
sustainable.
SPEAKER_01 (14:31):
See, this is why businesses are good.
And I'm not just saying that,I'm being serious.
Like because you know, we're abusiness podcast, obviously, but
we still focus on culture andwho's making it, who's literally
making an impact.
And you found a problem, yeah,and now you're actually bringing
a service.
That's why it's gonna besuccessful.
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
Because you're filing you know,filling the need because I know
(14:52):
we we've all had you know issueswith trying to get pregnant and
things along those lines, andthe diet and all those things.
So adding all these together isit seems like it'll be a home
run.
SPEAKER_04 (15:02):
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
SPEAKER_01 (15:03):
Is so did you touch on a little bit of that when you
were coaching with wellness byKelly and started figuring out,
okay, kind of almost betatesting, saying, like, okay,
this is working, this isworking.
SPEAKER_04 (15:12):
Yeah, absolutely.
I think that I got my coachingcertification, it was really
general, and then I went backand got more certifications in
just specific hormone healthbecause I I knew that that was
something I struggled with.
And whenever I talked about iton Instagram, the women who
follow me, I think it's justnatural you kind of talk to the
(15:32):
like you mirror your audience,kind of mirrors you, right?
I'm sure you guys noticed that.
And so I ended up, you know,between 2022 and 2024, having a
really full client load where Iwas seeing about 25 people a
week for an hour-long session,and all of it was about hormonal
(15:55):
health.
And like I I was actuallywriting a newsletter today about
this one client of mine who cameto me with like really severe
endometriosis.
We she did not believe me.
She was on two types of birthcontrol an IUD form that was
hormonal, and then an oral birthcontrol pill.
And she's like, I'm never goingto be off of it.
Yeah.
Wow.
And she's like, I'm never gonnabe off of these birth control
(16:17):
pills.
Like my doctor says I can't.
And I'm like, okay, okay, like Iwill let you speak.
And so we coached together fortwo years.
And by the end of it, she wasoff both, and by by the way, she
was having pain still with bothof these birth control pill
forms.
And by the end of it, with allthe dietary changes, getting her
C reactive protein, which is aninflammation marker lower, her,
(16:39):
she was having cycles and havingno pain at all.
And she was like, I did notbelieve that this was possible.
And so just going through caseslike that with a variety of
different things, whether it'sweight loss or mood, or somebody
who is like dependent on winebecause they're so stressed out,
like there's so many differentthings that came up in my
practice that I was like, okay,like we could definitely have a
(17:02):
place where we could implementwhere I found that I struggled
in those years where my clientload was so full, is that I
didn't have like enough of me.
And so I was so burnt out that Iwas like, I can't coach 25
people a week.
And that was when I decided in2024 after I had my daughter
(17:24):
that I was like, I need to takea year and just like step back
because I knew I always wanted aphysical location, but I also
realized like I need morepractitioners to be able to do
it right and do it well andserve as many people as I can.
And I didn't want to do thatdigitally, like I think that it
(17:47):
again, like we were talkingabout the being, it kind of gets
lost.
SPEAKER_01 (17:50):
Energy is everything, yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (17:51):
Yeah, yeah.
And so I think that that's kindof where that all came from is
like, okay, how can I have otherpeople support me?
And I think one of the biggestthings and like best lessons I
learned from my own father inbusiness was like, hire people
who have who are either smarterthan you or have different skill
(18:13):
sets than you that can do thingsthat you're not capable of doing
because that's how you one startto delegate things and create a
bigger something bigger thanyourself.
Exactly.
SPEAKER_01 (18:24):
It fills the holes, yeah.
You're missing all your blindspots.
SPEAKER_04 (18:26):
And that's what I think that is happening with
this, with this physical spacethat we're creating.
SPEAKER_03 (18:31):
So I make side because I feel like this is one
of those areas that, you know,for whatever reason or not, that
you don't hear a lot about.
Like you don't hear a lot aboutthis type of it, because it
feels, you know, I think it's ahard subject to broach in a lot
of situations.
I would assume obviously I Idon't have that have that area,
but you just talk with my wifeabout it.
Yeah.
Like it's always something thatcomes up, we talk about, and
it's almost we don't know why orwhat's happening here.
How hard is it to have toeducate people through that
(18:53):
process and break down thosebarriers that they're maybe
creating for themselves becausethey don't want to hear that
maybe I am having some of thesehormonal channels I can't help
with?
SPEAKER_04 (18:59):
Oh, that's such a great question.
And I think that it is probablythe hardest, at least when I
first started, it was thehardest part because you never
know how to navigate those typesof conversations with someone
you're meeting for the firsttime.
And so that's why when I woulddo consultations with people,
they would be a 30 minutes to anhour long because some people
(19:21):
are like, I just want to tellyou about my physical symptoms
and that's it.
And I don't want to give you anyother information about me or my
life.
And then some people go intotheir life story and they want
to like tell you everything, andyou're like, okay, like that's
cool.
And what I know to be true isthat it's all connected.
There's this really great bookout right now.
It's called Mind Your Body.
It's by a woman named NicoleSachs, came out like probably
(19:43):
six months ago, and it's allabout the mind-body connection
and how like research, like notjust like, you know, woo-woo
nonsense, but like research,data-driven studies that
actually show that when we havelike emotional trauma or we're
constantly stressed, or whateverthe case may be mentally and
(20:03):
emotionally, that that's goingto impact our physical body is
going to create symptoms.
And so I think that getting intothat type of conversation with
clients and then educating onthat, them on that, and being
like, we have to make someserious changes, not just with
like what you're eating, becausethat's the easy part, but like
with what you believe to be trueabout yourself.
Like, for example, my worth isdependent on my work.
(20:24):
So I am literally constantlybusy.
I don't say no to anything.
I have to create boundaries, Ihave to say no to stuff.
I need to stop like chronicallydieting and counting every
macro.
Like those things, those mentalcrazy yes are like the big
things that people don't want totalk about.
And that's why when I wascoaching and and still, and I
(20:46):
still have some clients to thisday, our sessions are an hour
long and we work together for noless than three months because
it takes time educate enough.
And for them, not just for themto like be educated, but also
for them to trust me enough tobuy into what they're doing and
(21:07):
want to share things that mightbe uncomfortable.
SPEAKER_01 (21:09):
That's a great perspective.
Yeah, we're explaining likethat.
I love the transparency too,man.
Because a lot of people aren'topen enough to be able to do,
you know, to talk like that.
And it and we all got problemsas you get up in age, too.
That's the other piece is tryingto make those adjustments.
You don't understand why youmight have anxiety.
You think it might be the diet,but yeah, you never know.
Yeah.
So I appreciate you talkingabout that.
Look, I want to talk a littlebit about just your perspective
(21:30):
on resolutions, right?
Everybody every year has aresolution, right?
Including myself, right?
And they say that 80% of folkscancel those resolutions, right?
But I'm just curious yourperspective on how to fight
self-sabotage.
I know you've talked about thata lot and staying consistent.
Yeah.
What's one perspective that'sworked for you that or maybe
help, you know, some of yourclients that help them stay
consistent and notself-sabotage?
SPEAKER_04 (21:51):
Gosh, man, I think that that is, you know, we even
talked about it.
Like, we're like, we know thatlike the biggest hit for Ray is
gonna come in January becauseeverybody's making those
resolutions.
But my goal is for people toagain to stay the course and
really like be like, okay, notonly am I gonna do this in
January, I'm gonna make thiscommitment to myself for the
next year or however long.
(22:12):
And I think that there's so manyreasons that people might
self-sabotage, whether it is thefact that they are super
disorganized.
And a lot of people like to lieto themselves about that.
It's like, oh yeah, like I'm I'mnot disorganized, but it's like
nothing's in your calendar,you're not on time for things,
or your physical space is like amess.
Or maybe you are overly busy andyou overschedule yourself, you
(22:35):
say yes to too many things andyou don't know what your
priorities are, or you're peoplepleaser, or you're a
perfectionist.
Like, again, there's so manydifferent reasons why we commit
to something and then we falloff because X, Y, and Z thing.
But what I've learned when itcomes to consistency and through
coaching like these hundreds andhundreds of women over the last
(22:55):
five years is that committing toone thing at a time is really
and like some people hate thatbecause like I will I have a
client who to this day, she'slike, I did the sauna and I, you
know, ate my meal and then I didthe cold plunge and and then and
then, but then the next day,like I couldn't do it all.
It's like, yeah, because you'retrying to do like 10 million
things.
(23:16):
Yeah, so commit to one thing forlike 30 days.
And it's like if you canmeditate for 30 days, it's like,
okay, you have proven toyourself, you've created this
trust with yourself, you havethis confidence now.
It feels like a part of yourroutine and it's there.
(23:37):
And then you build off of that.
Doesn't mean that you can't dothe sauna and the cold plunge
and the the breakfast and allthe things.
It means one thing at a time.
SPEAKER_01 (23:46):
Don't bring yourself out on progress.
Exactly right.
Yeah, love that.
Exactly.
You changed your diet a littlebit, right?
So you're vegan anymore?
So you you actually eat meat?
Is that what I'm gonna say?
When did this happen?
SPEAKER_04 (23:57):
Yeah, it's funny.
I actually was shooting some newcontent for our app that we're
relaunching in November today,and my social media girl Andrea
was over at my house and she'slike, Since when do you eat
chicken?
Like last year.
SPEAKER_01 (24:13):
Because I remember looking at your cookbook and
everything, trying to figureout, but now you're eating meat.
That's that's impressive, yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (24:18):
So when I got pregnant with my second son
Enzo, I remember there was somuch shame around it.
I was like, I want steak.
SPEAKER_01 (24:24):
Like, I really want steak.
That's hilarious.
SPEAKER_04 (24:26):
And to give you a little backstory, I come from a
background of like a prettysevere eating disorder.
And so healing from that endedup being a variety of different
diets, from like paleo to ketoto vegan, that was kind of the
last stitch effort.
And then I was like, you knowwhat?
What if I just like ate whatsounded good and like enjoyed my
(24:51):
life?
And it's really funny becausecoming back to that conversation
about like when we were talkingabout counting macros and how
that can be like super stressfulor like being on a specific
diet, it's like why do therehave to be so many rules around
things?
And I think that like one of thethings I admire about generally
(25:12):
about you guys as men is thatlike that's just not like really
a thing.
Like my husband has never oncebeen like, yeah, like I can only
eat, you know, until 7 p.m.
Like, no, he's gonna have a bagof chips if he's hungry.
SPEAKER_00 (25:25):
Like that is just 1000% right.
That's what we have.
So we have the dad box.
I'll do some more sit-ups, I'lldo some more sit-ups on the
border.
Yeah, it's that's true though.
It's true.
Yeah, very true.
SPEAKER_04 (25:34):
So I think for us as women, there's oftentimes a lot
of pressure around like what welook like, what our bodies look
like.
And then we are unfortunatelydriven in a lot of different
directions now because of socialmedia, especially.
But before that, you know, whenI was younger, like magazines
and billboards and all thatstuff around like what you need
to do to look a certain way,whether it's this diet or that
(25:57):
diet or at this supplement.
And what I have found is like bywith adding meat back in and
with like not being so insanelystrict with my diets, is that
like I feel one, the best in mybody that I ever have.
I have the most energy.
I feel focused at work.
I'm the most like lean I've everbeen.
And I think that I also had thisreally weird mentality at one
(26:20):
point that like if I strengthtrain and eat meat, then I'm
gonna get bulky.
It's like now that I know aboutwomen's hormones, like we don't
even have enough testosterone inour bodies unless we're like
taking it like in the world.
But if you're doing it naturallyand we don't even have enough
testosterone to do that, likethat's not so it's it's not just
not possible.
And so if that's a fear ofyours, it's like eat the meat,
(26:42):
do you lift the weights andenjoy your life.
And my diet for the most part isreally whole foods.
Like it's I'm not eating, youknow, processed anything for the
most part, like unless I haveyou know a night out, or it's
like I'm I'm really strugglingon a road trip or something.
(27:02):
But yeah, it looks like liketoday I had a scramble, an egg
white scramble with some sweetpotatoes, and then for lunch I
had a cauliflower rice bowl withlike eggplant and salmon.
And then for dinner just now, Ihad some steak and some homemade
French fries and some roastedbroccoli, and it was great.
(27:22):
I mean, it sounds great.
Yeah, fantastic.
SPEAKER_01 (27:25):
That's good.
And you feel good.
SPEAKER_04 (27:27):
And that's like all like one, protein is a building
block of hormones.
So that's and and we need fat,we need healthy fats to be able
to build hormones.
And our brain runs on glucose.
And so we need all three macros,and I think that's where so many
people go wrong.
It's like, I'm gonna be low carbor like I'm gonna be vegan or
I'm gonna be keto.
And it's like if you want tofeel good, one, your bot like
(27:49):
feeling good is relying on yourhormones for both men and women.
SPEAKER_02 (27:52):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (27:53):
Because we need stable blood sugar, healthy
testosterone levels, healthyestrogen, progesterone levels
for women, and all of that stuffis built on what we're putting
in.
SPEAKER_01 (28:02):
That's awesome.
Yep, awesome.
I can't let you, I gotta ask youone question about podcasting,
right?
Because you had your podcast uhbalancing balancing chaos.
SPEAKER_02 (28:09):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_01 (28:10):
Watch the episode twice with Dana White.
And it's not just because it'sDana White, it was actually
very, very good.
SPEAKER_04 (28:15):
He's great.
SPEAKER_01 (28:16):
But I gotta ask you, what was your favorite podcast
that you've interviewed?
Oh, that's our favorite gueststhat you've interviewed.
SPEAKER_04 (28:21):
I have a few.
That series where we had Danaon, when we had Gary Breca.
SPEAKER_01 (28:26):
Gary's say that.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't know if you guys havemet him, but he's I haven't met
him, but I've watched a lot ofhis stuff yet.
SPEAKER_04 (28:32):
He's fantastic, super knowledgeable, very, very
highly educated when it comes tohealth and wellness.
And I know he's got a lot ofmale followers, but he's great.
I also interviewed one of theforemost experts on hormones.
Her name was is Jolene Brighton.
She's fantastic.
And she was a great interview.
(28:52):
Trying to think of who else.
Um, those are probably the twothat stand out the most to me in
terms of health and wellness.
SPEAKER_01 (28:58):
Do you enjoy did you enjoy podcasting to help you in
any other business ventures andthings on those lines?
SPEAKER_04 (29:03):
Or I love podcasting.
I think it's super fun.
Like the when conversations kindof feel natural and organic and
like you're just like talking toa couple friends, it's great.
I think that the way that youguys are doing it in person is
even better because so all myepisodes were recorded on Zoom.
SPEAKER_01 (29:17):
Tell that to Chris.
Chris wanted to do it.
He wanted to stay when he was sohappy with pandemic, he wouldn't
leave the house.
I was gonna lose my mind becauseI couldn't stand being on Zoom.
Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (29:27):
Yeah.
So I think that, and I did havea few different whether it was a
business coach or developmentcoach, things like that on my
podcast that were really, reallygreat.
But I when we opened Rhea, ourgoal is to have speakers come
in.
So experts in their fields.
I was actually talking to myfriend Chrissy Lawler.
(29:47):
If you guys haven't talked toher, she's awesome.
She's got like 400,000followers.
Um, and she is like a sleeptrainer here in Vegas.
And so she doesn't just bookbrother.
SPEAKER_00 (29:56):
I'm not even gonna tell you we we'll talk offline
what we were just talking about,but I Probably I probably need
to hire her.
Yeah, I'm not gonna tell youwhat Chris recommended for me.
So yeah, but yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (30:06):
She sleep trains both adults and kids, which is
cool.
SPEAKER_01 (30:09):
I probably need that.
I'm not even gonna exaggerate.
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (30:11):
And she, I was like talking to her earlier today.
I was like, you'd be great tohave in there.
We'll core the conversations andwe'll put them on the app later
on.
So it's not like a podcast, butI think that having those
conversations that more and morepeople can be privy to, they're
so helpful.
There's nothing.
My son asked me the other night,he's like, Mom, do you guys know
what Tonies are?
(30:32):
So it's like this little box forthe people out there with kids.
And like it's a one way we'vegotten our kids to be able to go
like to sleep at night in theirrooms without us laying with
them until they fall asleep.
Yeah, for sure.
So they put you put this littlething on and it tells you a
story.
He's like, Mom, why don't adultshave Tonies?
And I was like, We do, honey.
It's called a podcast.
Good point.
(30:52):
Yeah, very good point.
Because he's like, it teaches mea lot of stuff.
And I was like, same here.
SPEAKER_01 (30:58):
Oh, I got up.
That's very good.
I gotta ask you about the Fatitafamily, right?
SPEAKER_02 (31:02):
Yeah, please.
SPEAKER_01 (31:03):
What's the biggest misconception, right?
Coming from a successful family,but now you're living in your
own lane.
I'm just curious to hear fromyour perspective.
Because we've had your brotheron, done very, very great things
outside of the business.
But just from your perspective,building your own lane, what's
the biggest misconception thatpeople think that they have of
maybe of me or of my family?
Both.
I'm gonna say both, yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (31:23):
It's funny.
My assistant was out the otherday, and obviously, like nobody
knows who she is.
And she's like, I was likehaving coffee, reading my book,
and these people were justtalking about your family.
And I had no idea who I was, andshe was like, and then I just
like got out of the left.
They weren't saying anythingbad, but she just like thought
it was funny.
I think that people, when itcomes to my family, I think that
(31:46):
people, I think the biggestmisconception, and I've talked
about, and it's not, I don'twant to say that like we're like
struggling or anything likethat, but I think that a lot of
people think that like becauseof who we are, like everything
is easy.
And like life is just so easyand great and wonderful all the
time.
And what I will tell you is thatlike every family, every
individual has like strugglesand problems and issues and
(32:09):
things that are challenging andthey may not look the same as
somebody else's problem, butthey're still problems.
And we are so blessed and we'reso fortunate, but like it's not
just like this perfect, youknow, situation all the time.
And so I think that recognizingthat is really important.
(32:30):
I think that people's biggestmisconception about like me
starting my own thing isprobably that like my dad's
gonna do it for me, or my dad'slike backing the financially
backing the whole thing and fulltransparency.
My mom is my partner in this,but like half of it is mine.
And I did it myself, and like Igot here myself, and I've spent
(32:53):
the last nine months buildingit, and I signed the lease, and
all of that is in my name, andso I'm taking on all the
liability.
And so, so yeah, I think thatthat's probably the biggest
thing is that you know, I'm notdoing all the hard work, but you
know, people can also get thething.
SPEAKER_01 (33:11):
You gotta execute, yeah.
That's the biggest thing.
SPEAKER_03 (33:14):
It's great to see that you did actually put in the
work, you got the training, yougot the education, you got the
certifications, you put all thisstuff together.
It doesn't seem at least fromour perspective, something
that's very easy to accomplish.
SPEAKER_04 (33:23):
So it's funny because you know, again, like I
love my dad.
He's the one who wanted me to goto business school.
And I went to business school atNYU for two years, and it was
the best life experience I haveever gotten.
Like getting to live in thecity, I still to this day say I
wish I could live.
SPEAKER_01 (33:43):
I love New York.
New York's New York's one of myfavorite cities.
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (33:45):
Could never do it with three kids and two massive
dogs, but you know, maybesomeday when my husband and I
retire.
But I think about it and I'mlike, if I like not it by no
means were those years wasted,but I don't use any of that in
terms of like what I do, likeall of the coaching
certifications, hormone healthcertifications, like that's what
(34:06):
I use in my life.
SPEAKER_02 (34:07):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (34:07):
And it's just, it's funny.
It's like, if I would have justdone that in the first place,
obviously I wouldn't be heretoday, but you know, life.
SPEAKER_01 (34:14):
So that's interesting.
You know, I'm curious for myselfbecause we're all super busy,
right?
Kids, business, the whole nine,running around seven days a
week.
You know, what systems do youput in place, you know, for
yourself as far as building abusiness, being a wife, being a
mom, you know, what what systemsdo you that that work for you?
SPEAKER_04 (34:32):
I will say, because I feel like a lot of people
don't acknowledge this.
Like, I'm very fortunate to havea support system with you know,
with me being a working mom.
Like, if I didn't have a nanny,like life would be like that
would be really challenging.
And so I would just want to befully upfront and honest that
like I do not do three kids.
(34:53):
Yeah.
And like all of that on my own.
Now, that being said, I amabsolutely committed to a few
things and like the two ofthose, like dropping them off at
school, picking them up fromschool.
Like, I want to be there forthat.
That's really important for meas a kid.
I took the bus.
I love you, mom.
That was like super true.
And so I want to, that's onething that's really important.
(35:14):
And so I really have like amorning routine down pat where I
will get up at 5:30.
I will do my meditation becauseI would not be a sane human
without it.
And then get their breakfastready, get my breakfast ready,
get them ready for school, dropthem off, go do a workout, and
then my day starts from there.
(35:34):
And I think having that rhythmin the morning, like I remember
over the summer I didn't, and itwas kind of like, oh, like I'll
just flow into work at like 10o'clock.
And then I would be up untillike midnight, like trying to
play catch up because I didn'thave a rhythm.
And so I think that that for meis super important.
SPEAKER_01 (35:52):
Yeah.
I agree.
I 100% agree.
SPEAKER_04 (35:54):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_01 (35:54):
Last question for you as far as just on the
business side, just business andlife advice in general.
What what's one lesson everyentrepreneur should hear that's
made the biggest impact for you?
SPEAKER_04 (36:03):
I think that the biggest lesson that I have taken
away from being an entrepreneur,because now it's been like
almost 10 years.
SPEAKER_01 (36:12):
It's a long time.
SPEAKER_04 (36:13):
Um trust your gut.
And when something no longerfeels right, it isn't.
SPEAKER_02 (36:22):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (36:22):
And I remember feeling in my coaching practice,
like I was telling you guys,like I was burnt out and I was
exhausted and I was overwhelmed.
And there were, you know, itdoesn't mean that I hated all of
it.
Like after calls, I would stillfeel super fulfilled because I
was helping someone, and that'slike what my passion and my
(36:44):
purpose in life really are.
But overall, generally, it tookme like over a year to finally
and to like have a kid tofinally be like, okay, like I
need to stop this in order tofigure out what's next.
And my coaching practice wasreally successful.
(37:06):
Like we were making it multiplesix figures a year, like just me
coaching, but it's like thatisn't what I wanted to be doing
anymore.
And if I would have just taken astep back and trusted my gut,
like in 2023, I Rhea wouldalready be open by now.
And so I think that that's trulythe biggest thing when you're an
(37:29):
entrepreneur, you know whensomething's off.
Even like it came up today whereyou know, I have a a contractor
working for me on something, andwe're talking about a payment.
And it's like I know that thisisn't right, and I'm gonna fight
for it.
Like it's it's it's a gutfeeling.
And so yeah, love that.
SPEAKER_01 (37:46):
Trust your gut.
SPEAKER_04 (37:47):
Trust your gut.
SPEAKER_01 (37:48):
I can't leave anybody.
I'm a big foodie.
And now that I know that you'reeating meat, now I need that
same.
What is your favorite restaurantin Vegas now?
And if it has it changed, yeah,has it changed for you?
SPEAKER_04 (37:58):
My favorite restaurant in Vegas is Eto.
My husband and I go there forlike special occasions, like uh
his birthday, our anniversary.
We're going for the first timeon our anniversary.
SPEAKER_01 (38:09):
I love it.
We're going, we're literally, Ijust made the reservation for
Eto.
You got it.
Excellent.
Yeah, Fountain Blue.
Our goal of it is like, okay,first of all.
We have our 15-year anniversarycoming up for that.
Congrats! That's huge.
SPEAKER_04 (38:20):
Yeah, I always thought, like, oh my gosh, I was
like, and that like I lovesushi, but like I'm like, I
don't want to eat like whatsomebody like with no you know
ability to change.
First of all, they're superaccommodating, but second of
all, everything is so fresh,nothing is fishy, nothing, it's
like by far.
And you also don't leave feelinglike overly stuffed.
(38:41):
19 courses, and you feel greatwhen you leave.
SPEAKER_01 (38:44):
I'm looking forward to your brother.
Recommended, and we went there,it was freaking awesome.
And Penny Kame.
SPEAKER_04 (38:48):
Kame.
SPEAKER_01 (38:49):
We went there and it was awesome.
Yeah, it was awesome.
Unbelievable.
Yeah, it was awesome.
So I'm looking forward toeating.
I'm glad you said that.
Yeah, awesome.
Yeah, what else?
What else is up for you?
So, last question for you.
What else do you want to leaveus out on?
SPEAKER_04 (39:02):
Gosh, I don't know.
I feel like my life feels superfull right now.
I feel really blessed.
Doing a lot of charity work withchildren's cancer organizations
like Make a Wish andcandlelighters and cure for the
kids.
And so I just got back into thatrecently.
And I feel like for anybody whois like looking for a little
(39:23):
extra kind of like fulfillmentin their life, yeah, not even
money.
Go volunteer your time.
I promise you, you will feellike I love getting, I feel I
love feeling like a day, I leavea day feeling like really
balanced.
Like when I have a day where Idon't get to see my kids at all,
like that was like again, andit's some some days are gonna be
(39:46):
like this.
Like it's just a nature of beingan entrepreneur.
Like some days are going to beall business and like you don't
have a choice.
And I get that.
But like Sunday, I had an eventat Durango.
We were there literally from 9a.m.
until 6 p.m.
cleaning up, and it's like youprobably wore out afterwards,
yeah.
Yeah, and like it's like theycame for my kids came for like
(40:07):
20 minutes, but you don't reallyget to hang out.
Um, but a day where you feellike I did something for myself,
something with my family,something like for my business,
and something like for thecommunity.
I feel the best on those dayswhen my head hits the pillow.
I'm like, God, yeah, I feelsuper accomplished.
I could do anything right now.
SPEAKER_01 (40:28):

Yeah.
Yeah.

Welcome to Vegas Circle Podcast with your hosts
Pocky and Chris.
We are people who are passionateabout business, success, and
culture.
And this is our platform toshowcase people in our city who
are making it happen.
On today's podcast, we'rewelcoming a special guest.
It's been five years since she'slast joined us.
She's turned Wellness by Kellyinto a movement, and now she's
launching her new business, Rea,which is in Summerlin, for one
of the Vegas most iconicfamilies.
(00:21):
She's carving her own lane.
Let's welcome to the circle,Miss Kelly Nomero.
Or Mrs.
Kelly Nomero.
I shouldn't say Miss.
Thank you.
SPEAKER_04 (00:27):
Thank you guys for having me back.
I'm really excited to be here.
SPEAKER_01 (00:29):
Yeah, a lot has happened in five years.
Last time we had you on, we werein a pandemic on Zoom, and the
world was crazy in 2020.
SPEAKER_04 (00:37):
I look back at that time and I'm like, wow, where
first of all none of us evenknew like how dark it was gonna
get.
That was like insane.
And also it was, I think I hadjust started Walmart by Kelly
the first time I spoke to youguys.
And I just think about how muchhas happened.
We're kind of chatting aboutthat before we hit record here.
(00:58):
Like in five years, had like Iknow a lot has happened with you
guys.
You guys have moved twice now.
Yeah.
Well, I've had three kids andnow I'm starting a you know
retail business, so a lot canhappen half a decade.
SPEAKER_01 (01:11):
Straight up, yeah.
Before, were you just strictlyonline, right?
Yeah.
Well I missed by Kelly.
So you were strictly online andthen you would kind of move
around with coaching and thingsalong those lines, right?
SPEAKER_04 (01:19):
Yeah, exactly.
When I first started, and Ididn't even, it was funny
because I had my son in January,and that was when I finished up
my coaching license, not knowingwhat I was gonna do with it yet.
And I started an online kind ofmovement membership.
Started just as Pilates, onlinePilates because I also got
certified as a Pilatesinstructor while I was pregnant.
(01:42):
And I was like, I don't knowwhat I'm gonna do with this, but
I know I don't want to work incasino marketing.
Love my dad, but that was justnot it for me.
And I had no idea that we weregonna be locked down for like
however long, almost up to twoyears.
Or in and out.
Yeah.
And so it turned out to beperfect timing, and just what a
lot of people needed was to beable to, you know, have movement
(02:03):
in classes like that at home.
So it worked out.
SPEAKER_03 (02:05):
Yeah.
Do you feel like you really showdrafting off of that?
You know, because obviously whenyou started there, you know,
COVID has changed a lot ofthings, specifically from that
online space.
Right.
At first it was we don't knowwhat to do, move remote.
And now you're shifting backinto more kind of people are
back into that personalizedspace.
Like, you know, part of thattrajectory is great, but also
I'm sure there's like a littlebit of like nervousness once
that starts to slow down alittle bit.
(02:26):
Like you see with some of theselike Peloton corporations and
things like that.
SPEAKER_04 (02:30):
Yeah, for sure.
I have what I have reallywelcomed into my own life is
kind of this hybrid model whereon the days where I'm super busy
and I'm like, shit, like I haveno time, like of 20 minutes.
I'm gonna do a workout at homebecause something is better than
nothing.
But then, and I'll do somethingon my app.
But then, you know, when I cango into a class and be around
(02:52):
other people, like I think weall I'm not speaking like for
everybody, but for everybodythat I talk to, we all want that
human connection.
We thrive on that, we crave it.
And so when I can get that, Ireally do try to.
Like Sunday, I went to a reallygreat class with my assistant
who's now become a really goodfriend of mine.
And I think where the idea kindof for Rhea actually came from
(03:16):
was as I was coaching, I wasoften referring people out.
And so it was like, oh, well,you can go get acupuncture here,
or go get a clonic there, or goget some IVs here, or use this
nurse practitioner to prescribeyou progesterone.
And so it was almost less soabout the in-person thing and
(03:36):
more so about, which I really dovalue, but and more so about the
need for, I think everyone hasthis need for efficiency in like
in the day and age that we livein.
And so I'm like, where can I,can I make a place where you can
do it all in one?
So to answer your question, yes,I think that there is a little
bit of like, I think that we'reall, we all want to move
(03:57):
offline.
Like there's Zoom does notcreate the same sense of like
fulfillment as or like an onlineworkout as like going in person
and feeling that sense ofaccomplishment.
But I also think that there's aneed there, you know, a modern
day need for it sometimes.
SPEAKER_03 (04:13):
So the hybrid model is seemed like definitely where
everybody's going to.
The best of both worlds.
Efficiencies as well as you knowthe ability to connect.
SPEAKER_01 (04:21):
Yeah.
Exactly.
Talk about Rhea.
So what what are you guys gonnabe doing there?
I'm looking online, it looksabsolutely amazing.
SPEAKER_04 (04:27):
Thank you.
I'm really excited.
It's gonna be amazing.
And I was talking about it todaybecause it feels like something
that I made for myself, which Ifeel like the best powerful
businesses come from is a needthat you yourself have.
And so when I think about mylife and how busy I am with
three kids and you know, tryingto run a house and also trying
(04:49):
to run a business, I I want tobe as efficient with my time as
possible.
And so creating this space wherewomen can come and take care of
themselves.
And I think that's the first andmost important point is that
Rhea is a women's only space,which is very niche and unique
in that we really don't have alot of places like that in
Vegas.
And it was a really toughdecision to make because we're
like, we could get persecutedfor this.
Like people are gonna be like,why are you only doing women?
(05:11):
You're excited.
SPEAKER_01 (05:11):
Chris and I were like, how can we sign up?
Yeah, that was the first thingwe were gonna ask.
How can we get all thesetreatments, man?
So we were gonna hate on you.
Yeah, for sure.
SPEAKER_04 (05:19):
It's like you're excluding men, and it's like,
you know, there are plenty ofmen's clinics in town where you
can go and get your not as goodas Ray.
SPEAKER_01 (05:25):
I was looking at, and I'm being serious.
You guys got some you havereally good stuff, yeah.
I appreciate that.
SPEAKER_04 (05:30):
So yeah, it's women only.
And the reason we did that isbecause I feel like women are
the caretakers for everyone intheir life for the most part.
We take care of our spouse, wetake care of our kids, we take
care of our work.
Um, and it's really hard for usto find the time to be able to
disconnect and actually takecare of ourselves.
And so I thought about this inmy head.
(05:52):
I was like, because we weremaking the decision.
I'm like, well, would I likewould I want Chad there if I was
like really trying to relax?
SPEAKER_01 (05:59):
You sound like my wife, dude.
Jesus.
You sound literally like whatSavannah would say to you.
SPEAKER_00 (06:06):
100%.
I guess you you're 100% right.
I can't hate on that.
I like it.
SPEAKER_04 (06:10):
That's true.
Would I want him there?
And I was like, I love him somuch, but if I was truly trying
to be relaxed, I would be, if Iwas he was there, I'd be like, I
wonder if he's having a goodtime.
I wonder if he his how'streatment's going.
And so we're like, no, womenonly.
And so that's the first point.
The second point is like we arereally focused on looking at you
as an individual and taking careof you from a holistic
(06:32):
standpoint.
So we're not just fitness andmeditation, which a lot of
places are, or a sauna and coldplunge, like a lot of places
are, or like just, you know,doing your labs and giving you a
readout on that.
We're doing it all.
So we're you're coming in andyou're first gonna get the
diagnostic piece, which isreally, in my eyes, super
important for us to be able togive you quality of care.
(06:55):
So diagnostics, meaning we havea breath test that looks at your
resting metabolic rate and a lotof your metabolic health
markers.
And then we also have bloodwork, stool testing, adrenal
stress testing, that's a salivatest.
And we're looking at all of thatto tell you, okay, here is why
you might not be feeling like ahundred percent.
(07:16):
Because I feel like through mycoaching practice, so many women
who I have seen over the yearsaren't feeling 100%.
They're exhausted, they'reburnout, they're anxious,
they're bloated.
And so it's like, okay, here'swhat we're seeing, and we're
giving you a root cause as towhy, where a lot of times your
doctor doesn't do that becausethey're running everything
(07:38):
through insurance.
SPEAKER_01 (07:39):
Yep.
SPEAKER_04 (07:39):
And they're taking seven minutes with you and
they're not.
SPEAKER_01 (07:42):
Sometimes less than that.
Yeah, literally.
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (07:44):
They're not giving you the time of day.
And then from there, we arerunning a system off of credits.
And so you can use your creditsat Raya towards like anything
that you want and what your labwork is pointing you in the
direction of.
So let's say you're reallyexhausted, your adrenals are
burnt out.
Maybe you do an IV that'shelpful for that, and you get
some, you do a couple of Reikicircles and meditations and some
(08:07):
deep tissue massage.
But maybe you're somebody whohas digestive issues.
So you're gonna do some colonicsand nutrition coaching, and you
are going to do some low-impactfitness classes.
So it's really based off of yourlab work, what you want, and how
you want to focus on caring foryourself while you're there.
(08:30):
And then us like helping youassist with that with our app
outside.
So you're gonna be able to trackyour results and use some of our
tools and templates outside of apractice.
That's a great idea.
Very organic.
Sorry, that's really long.
SPEAKER_01 (08:42):
No, but it's it makes a lot of sense because
it's it's literally organic andit's scripted to specifically
what you want.
You're not just thrown in, it'sliterally set up that way.
SPEAKER_03 (08:50):
Yeah, and that's kind of my question.
How do you you know how do youdevelop that script?
Right.
I think that's an important partof the piece of it.
And obviously, you have abackground and you have a good
education in this space, butwhen you're developing you know,
a space, there's only a limitamount of things you can have,
right?
Yeah, but in the world, there'sa million things that you could
put in it in this health space.
You know, how do you develop orunderstand what what you feel is
the most important pieces to putinside of the business?
SPEAKER_04 (09:11):
Let me just tell you the like when you said we
brought that up, like I have toeat today alone, like the
licensing piece of all of thisbetween all of the things that
we've decided to put into thisspace has been hell is a nice.
Because like even getting amassage license in the city of
(09:32):
Las Vegas is so hard.
Red tape on everything.
Uh-huh.
And so, with all of that, it'slike we have to have a business
license, a massage license, likea separate license for our
medical provider to be able topractice in a space that is not
owned by a medically licensedperson such as myself.
And so that part has been reallychallenging.
But I think it was kind of goesback to what I was saying around
(09:57):
when I was coaching and likewhat people were asking for.
And a lot of the things alsothat I do with my own time that
I have seen us a huge differenceand like really move the needle
for me in terms of how I feel inmy body.
And so those two things informedme of like, okay, what are we
gonna put in the practice?
(10:18):
And I was like, okay, well, Iknow every time I've tried to
get pregnant, I've doneacupuncture, and like that has
been a thing that works for me.
So we're gonna have acupuncturethere.
I get a deep tissue massageevery week because like it is so
healing for my nervous system.
We're gonna have that there.
I did like lymphatic massage fora really long time to help with
my digestive system.
We're gonna have that there.
(10:38):
So kind of going through thosethings of like what I've
recommended to people and whatI've done myself.
And and yeah, I think that likejust having knowledgeable
practitioners who know whatthey're doing and who can really
give the client like the bestservice possible is the way that
(10:59):
we decided to go.
And for just for me personally,I struggled really badly for a
long time with hypothyroidism.
And in over the last decade,it's all of these like different
things that I've tried that havegotten me to a place where now
I'm on the lowest dose ofmedication possible, whether
it's diet, movement, and some ofthese practices.
And so I know not everybody whocomes to us is going to be
(11:21):
struggling with that, butthey're things that can help
everybody.
SPEAKER_01 (11:24):
So that's interesting.
That's huge.
Yeah.
So talk a little bit about thefocus on hormones and women's
health, right?
So I don't know much about that.
So how can you kind of give it abreakdown of why you focused on
that?
SPEAKER_04 (11:35):
Yeah.
So 95% of women will strugglewith a hormonal imbalance in
their lifetime.
SPEAKER_02 (11:40):
Okay.
SPEAKER_04 (11:41):
Whether that is something like me with
hypothyroidism, which means yourthyroid is not functioning
properly, which controls yourmetabolism, how hot or cold you
are, the rate of growth of yourhair, skin, and nails.
So really impacts how you'refeeling in your body, or
something like insulinresistance, which, like, I think
it's now like one in three orfour Americans struggle with,
(12:04):
which is uh, you know, ametabolic disease, or something
like PCOS, infertility, all ofthese different things that
women go through.
And kind of like we were talkingabout, most doctors are being
like, here's a birth controlpill, or like, here is a
prescription for you to sleep,because we're putting a band-aid
(12:24):
on something rather than digginga little bit deeper and trying
to find what the root cause ofwhy you are not sleeping.
Why are you feeling anxious?
Why do you need a birth controlpill to regulate your periods?
We want to at Rayo and throughmy practice, we want to know
why.
So that way we can heal theunderlying cause to give you a
(12:46):
sustainable result versusputting a band-aid on it and
you're on a pill for the rest ofyour life.
That's not like helpful.
SPEAKER_01 (12:53):
That's what a moneymaker is.
But you're figuring out, yeah,that's crazy.
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (12:56):
And it's so much of it can really be resolved with
diet and lifestyle changes.
And so many people don't knowthat because they're not
educated and they're notinformed.
And that doesn't mean that atRhea we're not giving you the
assistance that is gonna makeyou feel better firsthand.
(13:17):
But for example, like if youwere to go into a Western
doctor's office and again, youwere like, I'm really not
sleeping, like I I'm waking upthree times a night, like this
fucking sucks.
Excuse my language, it's nottrue.
That's true.
Like, I was actually feelinglike that after I had my
daughter.
And what most doctors would dois be like, here's a
prescription for Ambien, orhere's a prescription for
(13:38):
Trazodone, see you never refillthis forever.
What was going on for me, andwhat's going on for a ton of
women, especially in their late30s and 40s, is we start having
this decline in progesterone,which is our hormone that helps
us to sleep.
It helps us to feel calm, ithelps us to feel less anxious.
(14:00):
And if you don't know that,you're just gonna take the
sleeping pill and go on yourmarried way.
But for me, after I had mydaughter, I took progesterone
for three months, one capsule atnight, and I slept better.
I felt better.
And so it's not like we're gonnabe like, oh, just do these diet
and lifestyle changes and waitand don't feel good until you
(14:20):
know they that kicks in.
Because it can take 90 days.
Yeah, we're gonna help supportyou now, and then we're also
gonna give you the lifestylechanges to make that
sustainable.
SPEAKER_01 (14:31):
See, this is why businesses are good.
And I'm not just saying that,I'm being serious.
Like because you know, we're abusiness podcast, obviously, but
we still focus on culture andwho's making it, who's literally
making an impact.
And you found a problem, yeah,and now you're actually bringing
a service.
That's why it's gonna besuccessful.
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
Because you're filing you know,filling the need because I know
(14:52):
we we've all had you know issueswith trying to get pregnant and
things along those lines, andthe diet and all those things.
So adding all these together isit seems like it'll be a home
run.
SPEAKER_04 (15:02):
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
SPEAKER_01 (15:03):
Is so did you touch on a little bit of that when you
were coaching with wellness byKelly and started figuring out,
okay, kind of almost betatesting, saying, like, okay,
this is working, this isworking.
SPEAKER_04 (15:12):
Yeah, absolutely.
I think that I got my coachingcertification, it was really
general, and then I went backand got more certifications in
just specific hormone healthbecause I I knew that that was
something I struggled with.
And whenever I talked about iton Instagram, the women who
follow me, I think it's justnatural you kind of talk to the
(15:32):
like you mirror your audience,kind of mirrors you, right?
I'm sure you guys noticed that.
And so I ended up, you know,between 2022 and 2024, having a
really full client load where Iwas seeing about 25 people a
week for an hour-long session,and all of it was about hormonal
(15:55):
health.
And like I I was actuallywriting a newsletter today about
this one client of mine who cameto me with like really severe
endometriosis.
We she did not believe me.
She was on two types of birthcontrol an IUD form that was
hormonal, and then an oral birthcontrol pill.
And she's like, I'm never goingto be off of it.
Yeah.
Wow.
And she's like, I'm never gonnabe off of these birth control
(16:17):
pills.
Like my doctor says I can't.
And I'm like, okay, okay, like Iwill let you speak.
And so we coached together fortwo years.
And by the end of it, she wasoff both, and by by the way, she
was having pain still with bothof these birth control pill
forms.
And by the end of it, with allthe dietary changes, getting her
C reactive protein, which is aninflammation marker lower, her,
(16:39):
she was having cycles and havingno pain at all.
And she was like, I did notbelieve that this was possible.
And so just going through caseslike that with a variety of
different things, whether it'sweight loss or mood, or somebody
who is like dependent on winebecause they're so stressed out,
like there's so many differentthings that came up in my
practice that I was like, okay,like we could definitely have a
(17:02):
place where we could implementwhere I found that I struggled
in those years where my clientload was so full, is that I
didn't have like enough of me.
And so I was so burnt out that Iwas like, I can't coach 25
people a week.
And that was when I decided in2024 after I had my daughter
(17:24):
that I was like, I need to takea year and just like step back
because I knew I always wanted aphysical location, but I also
realized like I need morepractitioners to be able to do
it right and do it well andserve as many people as I can.
And I didn't want to do thatdigitally, like I think that it
(17:47):
again, like we were talkingabout the being, it kind of gets
lost.
SPEAKER_01 (17:50):
Energy is everything, yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (17:51):
Yeah, yeah.
And so I think that that's kindof where that all came from is
like, okay, how can I have otherpeople support me?
And I think one of the biggestthings and like best lessons I
learned from my own father inbusiness was like, hire people
who have who are either smarterthan you or have different skill
(18:13):
sets than you that can do thingsthat you're not capable of doing
because that's how you one startto delegate things and create a
bigger something bigger thanyourself.
Exactly.
SPEAKER_01 (18:24):
It fills the holes, yeah.
You're missing all your blindspots.
SPEAKER_04 (18:26):
And that's what I think that is happening with
this, with this physical spacethat we're creating.
SPEAKER_03 (18:31):
So I make side because I feel like this is one
of those areas that, you know,for whatever reason or not, that
you don't hear a lot about.
Like you don't hear a lot aboutthis type of it, because it
feels, you know, I think it's ahard subject to broach in a lot
of situations.
I would assume obviously I Idon't have that have that area,
but you just talk with my wifeabout it.
Yeah.
Like it's always something thatcomes up, we talk about, and
it's almost we don't know why orwhat's happening here.
How hard is it to have toeducate people through that
(18:53):
process and break down thosebarriers that they're maybe
creating for themselves becausethey don't want to hear that
maybe I am having some of thesehormonal channels I can't help
with?
SPEAKER_04 (18:59):
Oh, that's such a great question.
And I think that it is probablythe hardest, at least when I
first started, it was thehardest part because you never
know how to navigate those typesof conversations with someone
you're meeting for the firsttime.
And so that's why when I woulddo consultations with people,
they would be a 30 minutes to anhour long because some people
(19:21):
are like, I just want to tellyou about my physical symptoms
and that's it.
And I don't want to give you anyother information about me or my
life.
And then some people go intotheir life story and they want
to like tell you everything, andyou're like, okay, like that's
cool.
And what I know to be true isthat it's all connected.
There's this really great bookout right now.
It's called Mind Your Body.
It's by a woman named NicoleSachs, came out like probably
(19:43):
six months ago, and it's allabout the mind-body connection
and how like research, like notjust like, you know, woo-woo
nonsense, but like research,data-driven studies that
actually show that when we havelike emotional trauma or we're
constantly stressed, or whateverthe case may be mentally and
(20:03):
emotionally, that that's goingto impact our physical body is
going to create symptoms.
And so I think that getting intothat type of conversation with
clients and then educating onthat, them on that, and being
like, we have to make someserious changes, not just with
like what you're eating, becausethat's the easy part, but like
with what you believe to be trueabout yourself.
Like, for example, my worth isdependent on my work.
(20:24):
So I am literally constantlybusy.
I don't say no to anything.
I have to create boundaries, Ihave to say no to stuff.
I need to stop like chronicallydieting and counting every
macro.
Like those things, those mentalcrazy yes are like the big
things that people don't want totalk about.
And that's why when I wascoaching and and still, and I
(20:46):
still have some clients to thisday, our sessions are an hour
long and we work together for noless than three months because
it takes time educate enough.
And for them, not just for themto like be educated, but also
for them to trust me enough tobuy into what they're doing and
(21:07):
want to share things that mightbe uncomfortable.
SPEAKER_01 (21:09):
That's a great perspective.
Yeah, we're explaining likethat.
I love the transparency too,man.
Because a lot of people aren'topen enough to be able to do,
you know, to talk like that.
And it and we all got problemsas you get up in age, too.
That's the other piece is tryingto make those adjustments.
You don't understand why youmight have anxiety.
You think it might be the diet,but yeah, you never know.
Yeah.
So I appreciate you talkingabout that.
Look, I want to talk a littlebit about just your perspective
(21:30):
on resolutions, right?
Everybody every year has aresolution, right?
Including myself, right?
And they say that 80% of folkscancel those resolutions, right?
But I'm just curious yourperspective on how to fight
self-sabotage.
I know you've talked about thata lot and staying consistent.
Yeah.
What's one perspective that'sworked for you that or maybe
help, you know, some of yourclients that help them stay
consistent and notself-sabotage?
SPEAKER_04 (21:51):
Gosh, man, I think that that is, you know, we even
talked about it.
Like, we're like, we know thatlike the biggest hit for Ray is
gonna come in January becauseeverybody's making those
resolutions.
But my goal is for people toagain to stay the course and
really like be like, okay, notonly am I gonna do this in
January, I'm gonna make thiscommitment to myself for the
next year or however long.
(22:12):
And I think that there's so manyreasons that people might
self-sabotage, whether it is thefact that they are super
disorganized.
And a lot of people like to lieto themselves about that.
It's like, oh yeah, like I'm I'mnot disorganized, but it's like
nothing's in your calendar,you're not on time for things,
or your physical space is like amess.
Or maybe you are overly busy andyou overschedule yourself, you
(22:35):
say yes to too many things andyou don't know what your
priorities are, or you're peoplepleaser, or you're a
perfectionist.
Like, again, there's so manydifferent reasons why we commit
to something and then we falloff because X, Y, and Z thing.
But what I've learned when itcomes to consistency and through
coaching like these hundreds andhundreds of women over the last
(22:55):
five years is that committing toone thing at a time is really
and like some people hate thatbecause like I will I have a
client who to this day, she'slike, I did the sauna and I, you
know, ate my meal and then I didthe cold plunge and and then and
then, but then the next day,like I couldn't do it all.
It's like, yeah, because you'retrying to do like 10 million
things.
(23:16):
Yeah, so commit to one thing forlike 30 days.
And it's like if you canmeditate for 30 days, it's like,
okay, you have proven toyourself, you've created this
trust with yourself, you havethis confidence now.
It feels like a part of yourroutine and it's there.
(23:37):
And then you build off of that.
Doesn't mean that you can't dothe sauna and the cold plunge
and the the breakfast and allthe things.
It means one thing at a time.
SPEAKER_01 (23:46):
Don't bring yourself out on progress.
Exactly right.
Yeah, love that.
Exactly.
You changed your diet a littlebit, right?
So you're vegan anymore?
So you you actually eat meat?
Is that what I'm gonna say?
When did this happen?
SPEAKER_04 (23:57):
Yeah, it's funny.
I actually was shooting some newcontent for our app that we're
relaunching in November today,and my social media girl Andrea
was over at my house and she'slike, Since when do you eat
chicken?
Like last year.
SPEAKER_01 (24:13):
Because I remember looking at your cookbook and
everything, trying to figureout, but now you're eating meat.
That's that's impressive, yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (24:18):
So when I got pregnant with my second son
Enzo, I remember there was somuch shame around it.
I was like, I want steak.
SPEAKER_01 (24:24):
Like, I really want steak.
That's hilarious.
SPEAKER_04 (24:26):
And to give you a little backstory, I come from a
background of like a prettysevere eating disorder.
And so healing from that endedup being a variety of different
diets, from like paleo to ketoto vegan, that was kind of the
last stitch effort.
And then I was like, you knowwhat?
What if I just like ate whatsounded good and like enjoyed my
(24:51):
life?
And it's really funny becausecoming back to that conversation
about like when we were talkingabout counting macros and how
that can be like super stressfulor like being on a specific
diet, it's like why do therehave to be so many rules around
things?
And I think that like one of thethings I admire about generally
(25:12):
about you guys as men is thatlike that's just not like really
a thing.
Like my husband has never oncebeen like, yeah, like I can only
eat, you know, until 7 p.m.
Like, no, he's gonna have a bagof chips if he's hungry.
SPEAKER_00 (25:25):
Like that is just 1000% right.
That's what we have.
So we have the dad box.
I'll do some more sit-ups, I'lldo some more sit-ups on the
border.
Yeah, it's that's true though.
It's true.
Yeah, very true.
SPEAKER_04 (25:34):
So I think for us as women, there's oftentimes a lot
of pressure around like what welook like, what our bodies look
like.
And then we are unfortunatelydriven in a lot of different
directions now because of socialmedia, especially.
But before that, you know, whenI was younger, like magazines
and billboards and all thatstuff around like what you need
to do to look a certain way,whether it's this diet or that
(25:57):
diet or at this supplement.
And what I have found is like bywith adding meat back in and
with like not being so insanelystrict with my diets, is that
like I feel one, the best in mybody that I ever have.
I have the most energy.
I feel focused at work.
I'm the most like lean I've everbeen.
And I think that I also had thisreally weird mentality at one
(26:20):
point that like if I strengthtrain and eat meat, then I'm
gonna get bulky.
It's like now that I know aboutwomen's hormones, like we don't
even have enough testosterone inour bodies unless we're like
taking it like in the world.
But if you're doing it naturallyand we don't even have enough
testosterone to do that, likethat's not so it's it's not just
not possible.
And so if that's a fear ofyours, it's like eat the meat,
(26:42):
do you lift the weights andenjoy your life.
And my diet for the most part isreally whole foods.
Like it's I'm not eating, youknow, processed anything for the
most part, like unless I haveyou know a night out, or it's
like I'm I'm really strugglingon a road trip or something.
(27:02):
But yeah, it looks like liketoday I had a scramble, an egg
white scramble with some sweetpotatoes, and then for lunch I
had a cauliflower rice bowl withlike eggplant and salmon.
And then for dinner just now, Ihad some steak and some homemade
French fries and some roastedbroccoli, and it was great.
(27:22):
I mean, it sounds great.
Yeah, fantastic.
SPEAKER_01 (27:25):
That's good.
And you feel good.
SPEAKER_04 (27:27):
And that's like all like one, protein is a building
block of hormones.
So that's and and we need fat,we need healthy fats to be able
to build hormones.
And our brain runs on glucose.
And so we need all three macros,and I think that's where so many
people go wrong.
It's like, I'm gonna be low carbor like I'm gonna be vegan or
I'm gonna be keto.
And it's like if you want tofeel good, one, your bot like
(27:49):
feeling good is relying on yourhormones for both men and women.
SPEAKER_02 (27:52):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (27:53):
Because we need stable blood sugar, healthy
testosterone levels, healthyestrogen, progesterone levels
for women, and all of that stuffis built on what we're putting
in.
SPEAKER_01 (28:02):
That's awesome.
Yep, awesome.
I can't let you, I gotta ask youone question about podcasting,
right?
Because you had your podcast uhbalancing balancing chaos.
SPEAKER_02 (28:09):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_01 (28:10):
Watch the episode twice with Dana White.
And it's not just because it'sDana White, it was actually
very, very good.
SPEAKER_04 (28:15):
He's great.
SPEAKER_01 (28:16):
But I gotta ask you, what was your favorite podcast
that you've interviewed?
Oh, that's our favorite gueststhat you've interviewed.
SPEAKER_04 (28:21):
I have a few.
That series where we had Danaon, when we had Gary Breca.
SPEAKER_01 (28:26):
Gary's say that.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't know if you guys havemet him, but he's I haven't met
him, but I've watched a lot ofhis stuff yet.
SPEAKER_04 (28:32):
He's fantastic, super knowledgeable, very, very
highly educated when it comes tohealth and wellness.
And I know he's got a lot ofmale followers, but he's great.
I also interviewed one of theforemost experts on hormones.
Her name was is Jolene Brighton.
She's fantastic.
And she was a great interview.
(28:52):
Trying to think of who else.
Um, those are probably the twothat stand out the most to me in
terms of health and wellness.
SPEAKER_01 (28:58):
Do you enjoy did you enjoy podcasting to help you in
any other business ventures andthings on those lines?
SPEAKER_04 (29:03):
Or I love podcasting.
I think it's super fun.
Like the when conversations kindof feel natural and organic and
like you're just like talking toa couple friends, it's great.
I think that the way that youguys are doing it in person is
even better because so all myepisodes were recorded on Zoom.
SPEAKER_01 (29:17):
Tell that to Chris.
Chris wanted to do it.
He wanted to stay when he was sohappy with pandemic, he wouldn't
leave the house.
I was gonna lose my mind becauseI couldn't stand being on Zoom.
Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (29:27):
Yeah.
So I think that, and I did havea few different whether it was a
business coach or developmentcoach, things like that on my
podcast that were really, reallygreat.
But I when we opened Rhea, ourgoal is to have speakers come
in.
So experts in their fields.
I was actually talking to myfriend Chrissy Lawler.
(29:47):
If you guys haven't talked toher, she's awesome.
She's got like 400,000followers.
Um, and she is like a sleeptrainer here in Vegas.
And so she doesn't just bookbrother.
SPEAKER_00 (29:56):
I'm not even gonna tell you we we'll talk offline
what we were just talking about,but I Probably I probably need
to hire her.
Yeah, I'm not gonna tell youwhat Chris recommended for me.
So yeah, but yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (30:06):
She sleep trains both adults and kids, which is
cool.
SPEAKER_01 (30:09):
I probably need that.
I'm not even gonna exaggerate.
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (30:11):
And she, I was like talking to her earlier today.
I was like, you'd be great tohave in there.
We'll core the conversations andwe'll put them on the app later
on.
So it's not like a podcast, butI think that having those
conversations that more and morepeople can be privy to, they're
so helpful.
There's nothing.
My son asked me the other night,he's like, Mom, do you guys know
what Tonies are?
(30:32):
So it's like this little box forthe people out there with kids.
And like it's a one way we'vegotten our kids to be able to go
like to sleep at night in theirrooms without us laying with
them until they fall asleep.
Yeah, for sure.
So they put you put this littlething on and it tells you a
story.
He's like, Mom, why don't adultshave Tonies?
And I was like, We do, honey.
It's called a podcast.
Good point.
(30:52):
Yeah, very good point.
Because he's like, it teaches mea lot of stuff.
And I was like, same here.
SPEAKER_01 (30:58):
Oh, I got up.
That's very good.
I gotta ask you about the Fatitafamily, right?
SPEAKER_02 (31:02):
Yeah, please.
SPEAKER_01 (31:03):
What's the biggest misconception, right?
Coming from a successful family,but now you're living in your
own lane.
I'm just curious to hear fromyour perspective.
Because we've had your brotheron, done very, very great things
outside of the business.
But just from your perspective,building your own lane, what's
the biggest misconception thatpeople think that they have of
maybe of me or of my family?
Both.
I'm gonna say both, yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (31:23):
It's funny.
My assistant was out the otherday, and obviously, like nobody
knows who she is.
And she's like, I was likehaving coffee, reading my book,
and these people were justtalking about your family.
And I had no idea who I was, andshe was like, and then I just
like got out of the left.
They weren't saying anythingbad, but she just like thought
it was funny.
I think that people, when itcomes to my family, I think that
(31:46):
people, I think the biggestmisconception, and I've talked
about, and it's not, I don'twant to say that like we're like
struggling or anything likethat, but I think that a lot of
people think that like becauseof who we are, like everything
is easy.
And like life is just so easyand great and wonderful all the
time.
And what I will tell you is thatlike every family, every
individual has like strugglesand problems and issues and
(32:09):
things that are challenging andthey may not look the same as
somebody else's problem, butthey're still problems.
And we are so blessed and we'reso fortunate, but like it's not
just like this perfect, youknow, situation all the time.
And so I think that recognizingthat is really important.
(32:30):
I think that people's biggestmisconception about like me
starting my own thing isprobably that like my dad's
gonna do it for me, or my dad'slike backing the financially
backing the whole thing and fulltransparency.
My mom is my partner in this,but like half of it is mine.
And I did it myself, and like Igot here myself, and I've spent
(32:53):
the last nine months buildingit, and I signed the lease, and
all of that is in my name, andso I'm taking on all the
liability.
And so, so yeah, I think thatthat's probably the biggest
thing is that you know, I'm notdoing all the hard work, but you
know, people can also get thething.
SPEAKER_01 (33:11):
You gotta execute, yeah.
That's the biggest thing.
SPEAKER_03 (33:14):
It's great to see that you did actually put in the
work, you got the training, yougot the education, you got the
certifications, you put all thisstuff together.
It doesn't seem at least fromour perspective, something
that's very easy to accomplish.
SPEAKER_04 (33:23):
So it's funny because you know, again, like I
love my dad.
He's the one who wanted me to goto business school.
And I went to business school atNYU for two years, and it was
the best life experience I haveever gotten.
Like getting to live in thecity, I still to this day say I
wish I could live.
SPEAKER_01 (33:43):
I love New York.
New York's New York's one of myfavorite cities.
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (33:45):
Could never do it with three kids and two massive
dogs, but you know, maybesomeday when my husband and I
retire.
But I think about it and I'mlike, if I like not it by no
means were those years wasted,but I don't use any of that in
terms of like what I do, likeall of the coaching
certifications, hormone healthcertifications, like that's what
(34:06):
I use in my life.
SPEAKER_02 (34:07):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (34:07):
And it's just, it's funny.
It's like, if I would have justdone that in the first place,
obviously I wouldn't be heretoday, but you know, life.
SPEAKER_01 (34:14):
So that's interesting.
You know, I'm curious for myselfbecause we're all super busy,
right?
Kids, business, the whole nine,running around seven days a
week.
You know, what systems do youput in place, you know, for
yourself as far as building abusiness, being a wife, being a
mom, you know, what what systemsdo you that that work for you?
SPEAKER_04 (34:32):
I will say, because I feel like a lot of people
don't acknowledge this.
Like, I'm very fortunate to havea support system with you know,
with me being a working mom.
Like, if I didn't have a nanny,like life would be like that
would be really challenging.
And so I would just want to befully upfront and honest that
like I do not do three kids.
(34:53):
Yeah.
And like all of that on my own.
Now, that being said, I amabsolutely committed to a few
things and like the two ofthose, like dropping them off at
school, picking them up fromschool.
Like, I want to be there forthat.
That's really important for meas a kid.
I took the bus.
I love you, mom.
That was like super true.
And so I want to, that's onething that's really important.
(35:14):
And so I really have like amorning routine down pat where I
will get up at 5:30.
I will do my meditation becauseI would not be a sane human
without it.
And then get their breakfastready, get my breakfast ready,
get them ready for school, dropthem off, go do a workout, and
then my day starts from there.
(35:34):
And I think having that rhythmin the morning, like I remember
over the summer I didn't, and itwas kind of like, oh, like I'll
just flow into work at like 10o'clock.
And then I would be up untillike midnight, like trying to
play catch up because I didn'thave a rhythm.
And so I think that that for meis super important.
SPEAKER_01 (35:52):
Yeah.
I agree.
I 100% agree.
SPEAKER_04 (35:54):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_01 (35:54):
Last question for you as far as just on the
business side, just business andlife advice in general.
What what's one lesson everyentrepreneur should hear that's
made the biggest impact for you?
SPEAKER_04 (36:03):
I think that the biggest lesson that I have taken
away from being an entrepreneur,because now it's been like
almost 10 years.
SPEAKER_01 (36:12):
It's a long time.
SPEAKER_04 (36:13):
Um trust your gut.
And when something no longerfeels right, it isn't.
SPEAKER_02 (36:22):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (36:22):
And I remember feeling in my coaching practice,
like I was telling you guys,like I was burnt out and I was
exhausted and I was overwhelmed.
And there were, you know, itdoesn't mean that I hated all of
it.
Like after calls, I would stillfeel super fulfilled because I
was helping someone, and that'slike what my passion and my
(36:44):
purpose in life really are.
But overall, generally, it tookme like over a year to finally
and to like have a kid tofinally be like, okay, like I
need to stop this in order tofigure out what's next.
And my coaching practice wasreally successful.
(37:06):
Like we were making it multiplesix figures a year, like just me
coaching, but it's like thatisn't what I wanted to be doing
anymore.
And if I would have just taken astep back and trusted my gut,
like in 2023, I Rhea wouldalready be open by now.
And so I think that that's trulythe biggest thing when you're an
(37:29):
entrepreneur, you know whensomething's off.
Even like it came up today whereyou know, I have a a contractor
working for me on something, andwe're talking about a payment.
And it's like I know that thisisn't right, and I'm gonna fight
for it.
Like it's it's it's a gutfeeling.
And so yeah, love that.
SPEAKER_01 (37:46):
Trust your gut.
SPEAKER_04 (37:47):
Trust your gut.
SPEAKER_01 (37:48):
I can't leave anybody.
I'm a big foodie.
And now that I know that you'reeating meat, now I need that
same.
What is your favorite restaurantin Vegas now?
And if it has it changed, yeah,has it changed for you?
SPEAKER_04 (37:58):
My favorite restaurant in Vegas is Eto.
My husband and I go there forlike special occasions, like uh
his birthday, our anniversary.
We're going for the first timeon our anniversary.
SPEAKER_01 (38:09):
I love it.
We're going, we're literally, Ijust made the reservation for
Eto.
You got it.
Excellent.
Yeah, Fountain Blue.
Our goal of it is like, okay,first of all.
We have our 15-year anniversarycoming up for that.
Congrats! That's huge.
SPEAKER_04 (38:20):
Yeah, I always thought, like, oh my gosh, I was
like, and that like I lovesushi, but like I'm like, I
don't want to eat like whatsomebody like with no you know
ability to change.
First of all, they're superaccommodating, but second of
all, everything is so fresh,nothing is fishy, nothing, it's
like by far.
And you also don't leave feelinglike overly stuffed.
(38:41):
19 courses, and you feel greatwhen you leave.
SPEAKER_01 (38:44):
I'm looking forward to your brother.
Recommended, and we went there,it was freaking awesome.
And Penny Kame.
SPEAKER_04 (38:48):

SPEAKER_01 (38:49):
We went there and it was awesome.
Yeah, it was awesome.
Unbelievable.
Yeah, it was awesome.
So I'm looking forward toeating.
I'm glad you said that.
Yeah, awesome.
Yeah, what else?
What else is up for you?
So, last question for you.
What else do you want to leaveus out on?
SPEAKER_04 (39:02):
Gosh, I don't know.
I feel like my life feels superfull right now.
I feel really blessed.
Doing a lot of charity work withchildren's cancer organizations
like Make a Wish andcandlelighters and cure for the
kids.
And so I just got back into thatrecently.
And I feel like for anybody whois like looking for a little
(39:23):
extra kind of like fulfillmentin their life, yeah, not even
money.
Go volunteer your time.
I promise you, you will feellike I love getting, I feel I
love feeling like a day, I leavea day feeling like really
balanced.
Like when I have a day where Idon't get to see my kids at all,
like that was like again, andit's some some days are gonna be
(39:46):
like this.
Like it's just a nature of beingan entrepreneur.
Like some days are going to beall business and like you don't
have a choice.
And I get that.
But like Sunday, I had an eventat Durango.
We were there literally from 9a.m.
until 6 p.m.
cleaning up, and it's like youprobably wore out afterwards,
yeah.
Yeah, and like it's like theycame for my kids came for like
(40:07):
20 minutes, but you don't reallyget to hang out.
Um, but a day where you feellike I did something for myself,
something with my family,something like for my business,
and something like for thecommunity.
I feel the best on those dayswhen my head hits the pillow.
I'm like, God, yeah, I feelsuper accomplished.
I could do anything right now.
