Today we’d like to introduce you to Daniel Sullivan.
Daniel, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
5 years ago myself and my now wife Shanda Sullivan were living in Mobile Alabama where we both had met and dated. I was already in the nutrition and fitness industry at the time I was doing personal training I was also an insurance adjuster at a 9-5 job and knew deep down that I wanted to do more with my profession. Randomly I asked Shanda if she would be willing to move to Dallas Texas. She with no hesitation said yes. My mother lived in Plano tx at the time and offered both myself and Shanda a place to live until we got on our feet. Back in Alabama we had an estate sale and sold everything we could in order to afford a U-Haul and gas to get to Dallas.
When I got to Dallas I worked 3 different jobs including working security in Downtown Dallas at clubs. I would work there from 9pm-3am and would get home, nap and get to Destination Dallas Gym where I had also landed a job at and would arrive there at 6 am. The GM of Destination at the time told me in order to be successful as a trainer I would need to be at the gym from sun up to sun down. I repeated this schedule for 3 years until I met my now business partner and friend Fallon Taylor. Fallon Taylor is a World champion who was struggling with an unhealthy lifestyle from being on the road constantly.
I started training Fallon and writing her nutrition and before she knew it she was down 40lbs and about to compete in an NPC Bikini completion in Puerto Rico. After Fallon saw the progress she made she insisted that I help her barrel racing and rodeo industry with nutrition and living a healthy lifestyle. That’s where Look What Daniel Did came to life. Here we are a year later with thousands of clients across the globe of people who just want to look good, feel good and be healthy while doing it. Every diet plan from Keto to Vegan we provide and in these groups apps are provided with workouts as well.
Throughout the years moving to Dallas I’ve gone from struggling to put 20 dollars In my Gas tank to now owning three businesses. One of these businesses is Novapelle Med Spa in North Dallas. Since moving to Texas I’ve also expanded my expertise into the NFL which in early 2018 I was an in-house nutritionist for the 49ers defensive end Cassius Marsh and now also other teams including the LA Rams and Tennessee Titans. I have also expanded into the UFC and music industry as well. I can honestly say moving to Dallas was the best decision of my life.
Great, 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?
Moving to a different state and starting from scratch was one of the biggest struggles for sure. but making that leap of faith made all the difference.
