Just Lean In offers a unique and revolutionary approach to health, fitness, and weight loss. Emily Phillips and Jenn Roux, co-CEOs, have a passion for fitness and a healthy lifestyle as a means to prevent future health issues. Their vision is to help women lose weight and change their relationship with food and fitness. Through the use of whole nutritious foods laid out in a weekly meal plan, targeted workouts, one-on-one coaching, group coaching and the latest in dietary supplement suggestions, they give their clients the whole-body experience needed to lose weight and achieve their goals.

In December 2021, Emily was playing with ideas for her next adventure. She had years of sales and marketing experience but had not found a product in which she was passionate. On a vacation in the Dominican Republic, she landed on an idea to combine her business strengths and passions. She shared her ideas for coaching, healthy eating and making exercise accessible with her husband Jason Phillips who is an emergency room physician. He encouraged her to move forward with her ideas seeing it as a unique program in a crowded market.

Using Emily’s network and connections, she started recruiting friends with skills and strengths to complement her own. She had met Jenn Roux a few years earlier at a marketing conference. Thanks to the lessons learned from the pandemic, it would not matter that Jenn lives in Boston and Emily lives in Celina.

Jenn is a WNBF Bikini Professional and former Fitness Universe Bikini Professional and has been an online fitness and nutrition coach since 2014. In 2018, she began a private coaching practice focused on helping women lead a higher quality of life through fitness, nutrition and activewear. After having her first child, Jenn joined Just Lean In as co-CEO.

This team launched Just Lean In in the fall of 2022. Emily leads the company's sales, promotions and marketing, while Jenn acts as the head coach and is responsible for its strategy and operations. They have 10 coaches who live coast-to-coast as well as in Canada. They all share a heart and vision for what they are doing and how they can help women change their lives. Together they signed 40 clients in the first month and today have worked with about 400 clients.

The future looks bright for Just Lean In as they will soon launch a new more robust platform with full features to help build community between coaches and clients. There is a new app in the works to make meal planning and workouts more accessible. Also, you don’t want to miss the helpful advice and encouragement found on the Just Lean In free Facebook weight loss group - and soon to be released YouTube channel.
