From Accountant to Health Coach | Jasmin Corbett of Wealthy You

In this episode of Scale HER Up, I’m joined by Jasmin Corbett, owner of Wealthy You Health Coach Business. Jasmin specialises in helping driven, ambitious women improve their gut health and overall wellbeing through a more holistic approach, looking at nutrition, movement, stress management, sleep and mindset. She shares how her coaching is designed to create real transformation, not just small improvements, and why she typically works with clients over a longer period to help them break habits, build new ones and feel genuinely well again.

Jasmin also shares the deeply personal story behind the business. Originally a chartered accountant, she was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis at 29 and told to expect pain management, medication and major lifestyle limitations in the future. Refusing to accept that prognosis without exploring what else was possible, she began researching what she could control and eventually got herself into remission, which completely changed the course of her life.

That journey led her to discover health coaching, retrain while still working in accountancy, and begin helping people in her spare time before the business became too busy to stay as a side hustle. She talks honestly about the loneliness of leaving a team environment, the steep learning curve of running a business and the support she found through joining a young entrepreneurs’ networking group.

This is an inspiring conversation about health, reinvention, ambition and building a business that fits the life you want.

In this episode, we cover:

  1. How Jasmin helps women improve gut health and wellbeing through five key pillars
  2. Why she takes a holistic approach rather than focusing on just one symptom
  3. Her rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis at 29 and why she refused to accept the prognosis as the full story
  4. Getting herself into remission and how that changed her life
  5. Retraining from chartered accountant to health coach
  6. Starting the business as a side hustle before leaving employment
  7. The loneliness of solo business ownership and the importance of finding your people
  8. Skills Jasmin had to learn quickly as a founder, from content to sales to switching between roles
  9. The importance of realistic expectations, long-term thinking and not measuring yourself only against the gap
  10. Building a business that gives her location freedom and supports a more intentional life
  11. Her advice to other women starting a business: be ambitious, but do not underestimate the time and energy it takes
  12. Her long-term goal to make an impact on one million people through her work
