We had the good fortune of connecting with Tiffany Creech and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Tiffany, have there been any changes in how you think about work-life balance?
As a business owner, nutrition coach, mother, and wife life can get hectic sometimes. I’m far from perfectly balancing it all everyday but I do my best. I have had many conversations with my family about the need for me to focus on growing the gym community. They understand that in these beginning phases of getting our name out there I am required to put in a lot of work. I make sure I take advantage of days I can work from home. I am active in my kids school activities. That has always been important to me so I volunteer for all parties, field trips and other events at their school. I’m so blessed that I have a “job” that I can design my working hours around my family’s needs. My husband and I have date nights as often as possible and we are always finding opportunities to have lunch together. Setting aside time for myself is also crucial for my mental and physical health. I prioritize my workouts, reading, self care, and alone time. So many people are always doing for others and forgetting about themselves. In order to have true balance we must take care of ourselves first. Balance looks so different for everyone. I remind myself that as long as I’m trying my best, my kids and husband are happy, our members feel valued, and I am taking care of my needs and wants, I am doing a good job.
What should our readers know about your business?
We all know how difficult things have been for us all. Like many other businesses in the customer service industry we have been hit hard with closures and government mandates. We were forced to shut our doors, and we were given guidelines to follow that made it nearly impossible to provide our services in the way they were meant to be provided.
We have been patient, followed the rules, and got creative. I am so relieved to see the light at the end of the tunnel. We are now open to full capacity and able to get back to what we do best. Helping people! Raw Fitness has overcome the obstacles that have been placed in our way. We are here to continue to change lives for many years to come.
I am grateful to say we are emerging from the hardships of the past 13 months as an even stronger community.
I am often asked, “what makes Raw Fitness different from other gyms?” Our mission is to educate and empower individuals to make long-lasting positive lifestyle changes to become the best versions of themselves through fitness, nutrition, community and commitment.
We are more than just a gym, Raw Fitness is a lifestyle created through our culture of community. We are the perfect place for people seeking guidance and education in fitness and health in an environment that treats you as a family. We teach people a long term, healthy and productive way of living.
I am so proud of our members. They work so hard and the results speak for themselves. Thousands of pounds of fat have been lost, thousands of pounds of muscle have been gained, but most importantly the confidence and self love that has been cultivated is awe inspiring.
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?
I have lived in Colorado for 3 years half of that time I was opening a new business and the other half everything was closed. So I have not had a chance to explore much. I can say we have some of the best restaurant options. I am a small business owner and supporter and love to find the restaurants that are off the beaten path. There is a Mexican Restaurant in Frank Town called El Cerrito Family Restaurant. Their food and service is amazing! I encourage everyone to get out of your bubble find the hidden gems and support local small businesses!!
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I am truly grateful for the team I have. My amazing partners Dan and Lori are my angles on earth. They are incredibly supportive and the working relationship we have is unlike anything I have experienced before. My husband is my biggest fan and he loves this gym as much as I do. Last but definitely not least the staff we have is exceptional! Each person on this team provides something unique to this community. They have their own way of uplifting our members and pushing them to be the best version of themselves. I could not do this alone. I am surrounded with the most talented, knowledgeable, supportive, and loving humans.
