Daily Habits to Unlock Your Full Potential & Purpose with Kaisa Keranen, Founder of Just Move

Kaisa Keranen (also known as KaisaFit) is the founder of Just
Move, a company dedicated to changing people’s lives by showing
them that movement isn’t always about weight loss and appearance
but rather overall health. Having suffered from depression
since the age of 13, Kaisa found movement to be a tool for
survival and when she injured herself in college, she knew she
needed to figure out how to move her body her own way. 


In this episode, we discover how Kaisa’s depression and alter-ego
helped her become her true self and how she discovered her
purpose to change lives through movement. Kaisa fills us in on
the problematic fitness industry standards, the steps she took to
find her new career path, and how she built a massive social
media following with millions of followers. We also talk
about the importance of therapy and how it’s impacted both her
personal and professional life. 


Having a north star is essential when running a business and
today, Kaisa shares with us her tips when it comes to coping with
stress, busy seasons, and how she continues to sustain her
energy. We also talk about why leaders need to delegate and have
a good sense of self in order to know where their strengths and
weaknesses lie. Tune in to hear Kaisa’s story and find out why we
need to prioritize doing something for ourselves each day.
