Welcome back, Healthpreneurs! Today we’ve got Ricki Heller on the show, and she’s going to share with us how persistence can lead to success. With persistence – and a sense of humor – Ricki got Ellen DeGeneres to publicly recommend her self-published book.
Ricki is an educator, writer, cookbook author, and natural nutritionist. She loves to create recipes for people with dietary restrictions. She does one-on-one coaching, online programs, and has a private membership club. She has been on an anti-candida diet since 2009 and shares primarily plant-based recipes.
Ricki has her own health journey that led her towards this path of helping others. Always an entrepreneur at heart, Ricki understands the mindset that leads to complacency and fear of failure. Tune in to hear how Ricki stepped into her role as an entrepreneur, why she’s careful about who she talks to, and why her biggest advice is to stay true to yourself.
In this episode, Ricki and I discuss:
Her self-published book. How she got Ellen’s attention. The power of persistence. How an entrepreneur thinks about failure. The issue with complacency and being true to yourself.
