Cara D’Orazio

 
 

Our founder, Bianca Reyes, sat down with Cara D'Orazio, fitness trainer and founder of C.G.M. Fitness for Women, for a candid conversation over Zoom. From pivoting her business module during the pandemic to buying a house, Cara shared an inside look at #solopreneurlife and some great relationship advice.

 
 

Boss Babe Chat

Here are a few quick tidbits from the conversation.

Bianca: What’s the workout like?

Cara: I gear my classes towards all levels and give options for beginner, intermediate and advanced levels! I give barre, Pilates, Band, and strength-based classes. Workout like no one is watching from the comfort of your own home! Classes are both live and there’s an on-demand section for any workouts you have missed. Need extra attention: 1:1 sessions are available.

Bianca: Who’s your lady tribe? Who do you go to for advice or mentorship for your business?

Cara: I need my girlfriends as well as other entrepreneurs to vent to, bounce ideas off of, and collaborate with. Shout out to… Shannon Clyne (@cakewalkphoto), Shana Maleef (@foodandfitnesspro), Hannah (@thelongislandblonde), Lisi (@lstudiomedia), and Melinda (@mirameswim)!
