Today we’d like to introduce you to Shawdi Najafi.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Shawdi. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
They say you should do what you love. If that’s the case, then I am definitely in the right profession! I believe exercise is for everyone, and finding something that you love is critical in order to shape your body, mind and soul into the best version of yourself.
Since I was a young child, I’ve gravitated toward wellness in its many forms: exercise, nutrition, meditation and self-love. My passion for fitness lies in living an active lifestyle, and I enjoy inspiring others to find the motivation to improve and maintain their fitness levels.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Every obstacle in my life has prepared me for all the opportunities that came thereafter. It is true that it’s about the journey, not the destination. Everyone has challenges that can hinder their career. We grow through staying positive and learning how to face trials more efficiently each time.
One of the biggest obstacles I’ve had in my career is being a woman in the corporate world. However, it has not stopped me from reaching my career goals. Having mentors to lean on and to learn from has been key in my continued growth and success.
Please tell us about HYPOXI.
HYPOXI is a combination fitness and spa experience. We offer 30-minute workouts and treatments that have been proven to speed up fat loss in stubborn areas. It all happens in a relaxing setting of beautiful green plants, aromatic diffusers and natural wood flooring – and most importantly – with the support of friendly, knowledgeable health coaches.
I began at HYPOXI USA even before there was a studio door to open! As the Director of Studio Operations, my focus is to ensure every customer’s experience is enjoyable, positive and rewarding.
At HYPOXI, we are committed to helping people live healthier and happier. We promote healthy lifestyle and our patented machines provide a powerful tool (or secret weapon) to help you in that journey. Plus, it’s easy and all natural. If you can walk or bike, you can HYPOXI.
Phoenix residents are lucky to be among the first with access to HYPOXI Training. With equipment licensing recently available in the U.S., I’m excited to see what cities will be next.
Do you look back particularly fondly on any memories from childhood?
My favorite childhood memory… playing backgammon with my grandpa. He never let me win. I didn’t beat him once in all the years that we played. It taught me a lot about life and the reality of working hard and never giving up. To this day, I love a good competition and it’s not by nature, it’s because of my Grandad. I wish he was still here because I think I could really beat him now, at least once 🙂
