Her Story
About Juanita
I started in finance before opening my gym in 2008. After getting into fitness through a competition and discovering CrossFit, I got certified and opened CrossFit Olympia. I focus on nutrition education, strength training for all ages especially women, and building community that has helped many with PTSD, body image, and health issues. I've been consistent for 18 years and love seeing the personal transformations in my clients.
Her Interview
Ten minutes with Juanita
01What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?
Be genuinely invested in people by learning their stories, backgrounds, and motivations rather than treating them as just memberships. Care deeply about the humans who walk through the door.
02What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
Be confident and secure in what you are providing. Do not shrink for anybody in this male-dominated field. Prove yourself consistently through results and belief in yourself.
03What are the biggest challenges or opportunities in your field right now?
Misconceptions about CrossFit and weightlifting making women bulky, along with misinformation from social media trends about nutrition and carbs. Opportunity to educate on proper strength training and complex carbs for lean muscle.
