A wellness coach, Piyush is helping people lead a happy, healthy, and active lifestyle through his proven physical exercises and diet plans.

Piyush Bhombe is a wellness coach based in Pune. He guides people on health, fitness, and weight management.

Piyush shares that he was working in the IT sector. He says, hailing from a middle-class Maharashtrian family where his grandfather and father also did jobs, he was also supposed to do one. But in 2007, he got a business proposal via an email which he accepted and thus his side hustle along with his job began. At that time he was also looking for an extra source of income. After a couple of years, he quit his job and took to doing that business full-time.

After completing his engineering, Piyush worked for an IT company. He says that whatever he would earn in a month would not be enough to even survive the whole month. And the same would be the condition of other job workers in his neighborhood, he says. That’s when he decided to turn the tables around. He started working for a business that worked in the health and fitness sector. It’s been twelve years since he started doing that business and along the journey, he has trained many people to do something of their own part-time for an extra source of income, he says.

Talking about COVID, Piyush says that during the pandemic he started doing his business online and also gave online consultations to his clients for their physical fitness.

Piyush shares that it was his mentor in the same business who inspired him to take to it. He says that for an employed person there are limitations with regard to how much they can earn but a businessman can earn as much as they want. He considers his mentor as his only inspiration.

Piyush doesn’t think that he was a born leader. He became a leader with his experience only. He says that a leader is someone who leads by example and knows the way, shows the way, and goes the way. He thinks that a good student or a good employee can also be a good leader.
