157. Ellie Sarmadi - Virtual Fitness and UBQFIT
b"UBQFIT, is a two-sided marketplace where livestream fitness training sessions are organized between Trainers and Trainees with a push of a button. The platform incorporates live activity data, provides interactive 1-on-1 coaching and support AND it's a medium for others in the community to cheer the Trainee on in real-time if you choose to be social. No worries, if you aren't into being social, you can also be as private as you like. Ellie Sarmadi is the CEO and Founder of UBQFIT. She studied economics in Canada, worked in real estate, consulted at Deloitte, earned her MBA from Columbia Business School and wounded up in Investment Banking and Trading at Morgan Stanley on Wall Street. But while her career flourished during those years, she didn't feel personally fulfilled. She had compromised her core values\\u2014family, friends, community and most importantly her health and fitness\\u2014while work engulfed her life. She founded UBQFIT as a solution for busy people out in the world that need the flexibility in their lives to stay fit and could use the motivation of a live professional trainer to get going.\\n\\nSupport this podcast at \\u2014 https://redcircle.com/dr-ds-social-network/donations\\n\\nAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands\\n\\nPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy\\n\\n--- \\n\\nSend in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/darian-parker/message"
