The moment that I dropped any expectations of what people thought I should be like as a personal trainer, and what I thought I should do, and I just showed up as Kirsten Martell, who cares about her clients and cares about her daughter and is doing her absolute best - that's when I became a wild woman." - Kirsten Martell --------------------------------------------- Renée Warren is an award-winning entrepreneur, a 7-figure business starter, and the founder of We Wild Women, a business dedicated to helping women launch their dream business.
