We had the good fortune of connecting with Dr. James Nochimson and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Dr. James, every day, we about how much execution matters, but we think ideas matter as well. How did you come up with the idea for your business?
After I graduated from college, the idea struck me. I graduated with a business degree but no real-world experience. I loved going to the gym and thought that becoming a personal trainer would be a fascinating career. I enjoy assisting others and am passionate about fitness and nutrition, so combining the two piqued my interest. After wanting to take my knowledge to the next level, I continued my education by earning my doctorate in physical therapy.
Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I am a physical therapist who also works as a personal trainer. That in itself is unusual, as most people are either one or the other, but never both. My personality is unquestionably what distinguishes me from others. My clients adore me and want to collaborate with us. I try to connect with each person and find out why they want to work with me. Everyone is unique, and why someone may see me for the same goal may have a different reason for being in front of me that day.
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Well, first I’d have to get permission from my fiancé to leave the house because we have a newborn and they are a lot of work! If approved, I’d probably do some of my favorite things with them, like go to the beach, eat some pho, go rock climbing, golf, workout, and cook. I don’t do much outside of work and caring for my son these days, so I’d probably bore you! haha
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I’d like to express my gratitude to my parents and my wonderful fiancé for always believing in me and knowing how capable I am.
