Guest: Entrepreneur and fitness guru, Beverly K. Johnson.   Having been a Zumba instructor for years, Beverly K. Johnson knew her influence included more than fitness training when a candid conversation with an exercising client revealed that women in caretaker roles often forget about themselves. She named her new motivational fitness business Genesys Fitness because it signified a rebirth for the often “forgotten” woman: the divorcee’, caretaker, and empty-nester.
