This week’s presenter: Casey Curoe, Simply Strong Coaching
Join us at 1 Million Cups as Casey Curoe showcases her business, Simply Strong Coaching.
Simply Strong Coaching was founded to solve a common dilemma: helping busy women fit meaningful fitness and nutrition into their demanding schedules. Through personalized online coaching and in-home training, Casey guides clients toward strength, weight loss, and lasting habits — without requiring a total lifestyle overhaul.
In this talk, Casey will share how Simply Strong evolved from a solo coaching venture into a growing team, her strategy for expanding in-home personal training into Cedar Rapids, and the realistic opportunities and challenges of scaling a service-based fitness brand in a new market.
