Healthy Lifestyle Tips From Martha Orellana's Personal Trainer

Coach JoAnna Burks and her client, Martha Orellana, had the design and construction industry in common when Martha first started working with "Coach B." a few years ago. While Martha continued on in the field as VP of sales and marketing for MrSteam, JoAnna left the building industry to focus on a new career of making people feel good through a healthy lifestyle.

JoAnna first entered a gym when her construction business was gravely threatened by the housing recession and she found herself sinking fast into depression. "I had stepped up and owned my situation instead of being a victim to it," JoAnna writes of that time on her website. "And the Universe was rewarding me with clarity and energy."

Eight years after she first set foot in a gym, JoAnna is now an established coach and lifestyle leader in southern California. Martha says she's worked with many trainers over the years, but none have given her the inspiration, knowledge and support that she has received from Coach JoAnna Burks. This is why we've selected Coach B. for our first #TrainerTellsAll profile from MrSteam, the Feel Good company.

"The shortest, fastest way to increase the profitability and sustainability of your business is not through devoting additional hours at work. It's through investing in yourself."
