Meet Katie Meurer

Today we’d like to introduce you to Katie Meurer.

Hi Katie, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I moved to Columbus in 2021 from Philadelphia. Most of the good friends I had made in Philly came from the gym I belonged to there. On a quest to meet new people in a new city, I started venturing out to different studios and trying them out. I would write little notes on my phone about what I liked or didn’t like about them. I soon realized I loved trying out ALL the places and thought others could benefit from my ‘reviews’.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall, and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The good thing about this being a creative outlet and not a business in the traditional sense is that it is always fun. The second it starts to feel frustrating or stressful I force myself to take a break. I want this to be a fun passion project for me… not a chore.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I love traveling to different gyms and fitness studios around Columbus. I’m is most proud of putting myself out there and standing by my words. I think how I sound in my captions and posts is exactly how I sound in real life. I think that sets me apart from others where IRL’s personality doesn’t match up with their online presence.

What would you say has been one of the most important lessons you’ve learned?
Not everyone is going to like you or what you say. That is sometimes a hard pill to swallow but my experience is my experience and I am not going to sugarcoat it.
