We had the good fortune of connecting with Issa Ibreighith and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Issa, what matters most to you?
The idea of values and principles is something I feel so strongly about. Instilled in me at a very early age by my Father who I  hold in the highest regard. He taught me that a man’s  values, character and integrity are something I should never compromise on. Whether it brought me wealth or struggle, I cannot break my values and principles. I believe in being honest and fair at all times. If someone could not afford me but showed passion and desire… the money comes second. I was gifted with the ability to connect with people and the ability to help them reach any goals they have.

The why lives in my heart. I believe in honesty and compassion. My parents come from a culture of hospitality, I watched it growing up all my life. It’s who I am. Be nice and help whoever I can along this journey of mine. I am Issa Ibreighith and I will never budge on my values and principles

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
What sets me apart from most is my uncanny ability to sense what my client is feeling and then being able to empathize having once been there myself.

I am most proud of the fact that I not only change the way people eat but the way they think and speak about themselves. Oftentimes a person’s self worth is lost when they aren’t comfortable or confident in their own skin.

I got where I am today with my enthusiasm and drive to help others. Was it easy? No, it wasn’t easy. Starting a new clientele based business never is. No one knows who you are or if you are any good at what you are claiming to be good at. I overcame this challenge by 1st helping friends and family and doing a lot of work for free to prove myself and build a trusted brand. Everyone who walks into a gym thinks they can coach but it takes years of education and experience.

Along the way I have learned that patience is needed. Self owned businesses have their ebb and flows and nothing is ever promised.

If there is one thing I want the world to know it is this… ” It is OK to shine bright, don’t be less to appease other people”

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
The city I live in San Clemente California. We are laid back over here, mostly Sunny beaches and sunsets. I don’t drink either. I hate to do this to anyone reading this but my best friend (GF) and I cook for each other (She doesn’t drink either) everything is very tight nit.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I’d like to dedicate this shoutout to my Father, my brother, Girlfriend and all of my mentors over the years.
