HS 232 - Jenny Craig Health and Business

In today’s Holistic Survival Show, host Jason Hartman invites health and wellbeing expert, Jenny Craig, to talk about her new book, to discuss her business strategy and to talk about what children really learn from their parents’ actions regarding food and exercise.   Key Takeaways   02.30 – Children remember what they see, and parents who think they can convince their children to eat healthily while they eat fast food are simply delusional. 05.50 – The initial success of Jenny Craig rested on seeing what the rest of the market was doing and finding a way to distinguish the business from everything else out there. 09.05 – You can’t just have a good idea; you need to have the quality there too, and especially if it’s related to what people are eating. 14.45 – In an organization, every member has to have a different skillset and has to bring something new to the team. 19.05 – Franchising is an area where you have to be willing to put in full commitment to everything you do, and for some people, it’s just not the right path. 25.50 – If you have to deal with a government official who is so strictly adhering to nonsensical rules, they can totally ruin your business. 26.50 – One of the best ways to eat more healthily is to get over the misconception that rich ingredients like butter add flavor. The spicing and seasoning is what gives the flavor.  34.08 – Jenny’s latest book, I Believe in Genevieve, can be purchased at independent and nation-wide bookstores, as well as online at www.amazon.com   Tweetables Gratitude is the first key to success. You have to believe in yourself and you have to be willing to work for the things that you want.    It’s interesting how the harder you work, the luckier you get.
