Meet Angie Marone | Health Professional and Hormone Health Practitioner

We had the good fortune of connecting with Angie Marone and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Angie, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
I have always been a lover of all things health and fitness and when I got my training certification, I went to work for a box gym and didn’t love it. I spent lots of hours training clients privately. I thought– there had to be a better way to help more women in less time, so I decided to start my own boot camp business.

I wanted to create a place specifically for women– a place that allowed them to not only get in a great workout for their body but to help them build up confidence and that feeling of empowerment!

So that is when Fit Chick Express was created. I even had some of my clients help me come up with a name for the business.

We grew from 5 ladies in a park to over 100 clients and lots of different class options– something for every woman.

Now a lot of those clients are not just clients, but family. I wouldn’t have been able to do that working for someone else.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Fit Chick Express is not just a business, it’s about community. From day one, I was determined to make it more than just a place for women to work out. I wanted to them feel like they were invested in the business itself. I have asked for their input on many things over the years and we use their input to make adjustments, and changes and make things even better for them.

We have many women come to us who are new to the area and have developed lasting friendships just by working out together. We do many GNO’s throughout the year as a way to just hang out and get to know each other better.

We have many clients who have been with us for 10+ years and have supported us through many moves and even the pandemic when I wasn’t sure we would make it.

Those trying times also taught me to always have a backup. So I have now expanded my reach to women all over the world, with online coaching– with all the same visions as I did with my brick-and-mortar.

My motto has always been, “There is no option to fail, only to succeed” and that is why we are still here 15+ years later. No matter what, I was willing to do what needed to be done to keep the business going– not just for me, but for my clients.

Women deserve the best and my goal is to continue serving them so that they, too, feel the same way.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
When family comes to visit, it’s always fun to show them the beautiful mountains of Colorado. Whether it’s a trip to Boulder to do some Hiking, Estes Park to do some shopping, or any of the lakes in the mountains to go paddleboarding or fishing in.

We love to enjoy some yummy foods and drinks, so any of the many Colorado breweries are always on the agenda.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My Mom has always been my biggest supporter in my business. She has been there to help me write emails, helped me with tough conversations, and has been there to help build me up when I felt like giving up. Her support for the past 15+ years is so appreciated.

And I can’t leave out my clients. Without them, there would be no business. They gave me something to want to give more and more to each year I spent with them. They supported me through some of the toughest times in my life and I wouldn’t be where I am at in business without them.
