Hot Skinny Tea & Detox Program USA | Tea For Healthy Lives
In this interview, we talk with Hot Skinny Tea’s creator Kimberly Clark, who is also a personal trainer and a seasoned nutritional expert. The main subject of the interview is how to successfully lose weight and what supplements to use, in addition to a healthy diet plan and regular exercise. This is where Kimberly and her Hot Skinny Tea come in, with programs for 14-day, 28-day and 42-day periods.
Q: Kimberly, when was it that you first felt the urge to help people lose weight and achieve their fitness goals?
A: Well, I have a strong background in physical health and nutrition, because of my independent studies in these two fields. I’ve always been physically active and I wanted to help other people not only lose weight but also feel good about themselves and achieve what at first might seem like an impossible goal to reach. Like everyone else, I used to think that if one wanted to lose weight fast the only “solution” was to engage in crazy amounts of physical exercise and extreme diets where you ended up starving yourself. But, as you might know, those are common misconceptions that unfortunately still exist. Little did I know that a tea could set me free from that nightmare!
Q: How are Hot Skinny Tea and your Personal Trainer career connected?
A: Well, in one sentence – they are not, except for myself (laughs). Jokes aside, I had a crazy experience a few years back where I went on this incredible yoga and hiking retreat in Nepal. On a particular walk, I came into contact with a group of local monks who drank tea religiously (excuse the pun…). Anyway, one of those monks took a particular liking to me and shared a recipe which essentially became the basis of the Hot Skinny Tea blend. All local, organic ingredients, this particular blend had these guys looking like they were in their 30s and 40s. I was shocked to learn that they were pushing 80 years old and demanded they share this recipe! Them sharing it with me literally changed my life. When I returned home, I didn’t have any thoughts at all to create a product out of it, it’s only when I went back to my day job that I saw what other people were using to lose weight. I noticed that there are a lot of supplements being marketed to people who want to lose weight, but the vast majority of them were unreliable at best. My focus was on the various tea blends for both detox and weight loss and there were a lot of those on the market. However, when I took a closer look at some of the ingredients these supplements were using I was simply appalled and decided to take immediate action.
Q: Why were you appalled and what did that proactive take on weight loss tea blends show you?
A: Well most of the weight loss tea blends had some ingredients that were not just unhelpful, but could also do some serious harm if you kept drinking them. One of them (and I’m not going to say which one) even contained the same substance used in some nerve gas weapons, but luckily, that one got pulled from production, shortly afterward. Because of all of this, I decided to make my own tea blend for weight loss, which I wanted to use myself, but after I discovered just how great it was, I decided to share it with the rest of the world.
Q: Was the transition from a professional personal trainer to a serious entrepreneur difficult or did it come naturally to you?
A: Well, to be honest, it was both. Things started out slow enough and I was happy that I was able to help out a larger number of people with my Hot Skinny Tea. That being said, the orders kept piling up and I was starting to feel some pressure because of that. In the end, I decided to just go with the flow and fully immerse myself into this new role, which now required me to do quite a lot of new things. There were some big changes that I needed to make, both for my product and for myself. On the other hand, with this new job and the new product, I actually had more time to dedicate to myself and do the things I love.
Q: What were those changes you had to make?
A: Product-wise, I hired a team of researchers in order to find out more about each and every one of the ingredients I was using to make Hot Skinny Tea. After they provided me with the scientific data, I was able to make some minor tweaks to the blend and create Hot Skinny Tea as we all know and love it now. The other side of the story had to be taken care of, as well. I partnered up with some of the best marketing industry talent, in order to ensure that I used all available resources to bring Hot Skinny Tea to an even larger audience.
Q: What about those personal changes?
A: With great power comes great responsibility, but with great tea comes great fun (laughs). I always loved to travel but I always loved the place where I was born and raised, Colorado. At that point, the business was really taking off and I had little to no time for myself, I barely even had time to walk my dog, Napier. From this standpoint though, it feels like it was the right move for myself and I don’t regret it one bit.
