After stepping down from her career and taking a six month traveling trip with her children, Lindsay Cook realized what her next career step would be: creating an app based on her health and wellness passions.
In today's episode, we sit down with Lindsay Cook, co-founder of FitOn, the number one free fitness app. Lindsay shares with us how her corporate background helped her start FitOn, the process and mindset needed for raising capital, how to market an app, and so much more.
"I realized how important actually my workouts were to my own self care. And I had no time to go to the gym. And I spend a lot of time looking at apps in the App Store and just being really underwhelmed by what I was seeing in this space." - Lindsay Cook
