Today we’d like to introduce you to Tanjie Brewer.
Hi Tanjie, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
My story began when I was just 14, a young girl lacing up her shoes for cross-country and track. I still remember the exhilaration my body felt when it hit a goal I once thought was impossible. Even then, I noticed something powerful: the food I ate changed the way I ran. At a young age, I understood the intimate connection between energy, nourishment, and performance. That was the spark… the moment where fitness and wellness first lit up something inside of me.
And just as strongly, I loved fashion. In high school, I even started my own fashion club called Origi-Ali-T because style wasn’t just clothing to me, it was confidence, expression, and identity coming alive.
Fast-forward to my twenties, and life brought the moment that would change everything. My mother, at the tender age of 55, passed away in her sleep after being diagnosed with high blood pressure. Losing her reshaped my entire sense of purpose. It pushed me to resign from my Fortune 500 career and create something meaningful..something that could prevent other families from feeling the pain I had felt.
That was the birth of Stylish and Fit.
I wanted to help people live long, vibrant lives. I wanted to see them grow old and gray, boldly walking in their purpose, full of vitality. I wanted them to understand the power of their own signature beauty, their personal style, and their ability to elevate the world simply by being whole, healthy, and authentically themselves.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
It has not been a smooth road. After building my business in Oklahoma, life shifted! I was suddenly uprooted to Chicago, Illinois. Everything I had built in person, including my award-winning Lifestyle of Vitality Challenge, had to be reshaped. I had to pivot quickly, rethink my reach, and rebuild from the ground up in a brand-new market.
What I didn’t realize then was that the move to Chicago wasn’t a disruption, it was a divine redirection. It pushed me to take a more global approach, to expand my business online, and to reach people far beyond state lines. Chicago wasn’t just a new chapter; it was an assignment.
Another challenge came when I lost one of the key pillars of my business, an operations manager who knew every detail of the day-to-day due to personal issues. When she left, I felt vulnerable and a little lost in my business I must say. It forced me to confront the areas I had handed off too quickly and reminded me of the importance of having my hands, my eyes, and my understanding in every part of what I was building.
Those moments taught me resilience… but they also taught me ownership. True leadership isn’t just delegating, it’s knowing your foundation so well that even when something shakes, you can still stand strong.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?

What She and Her Brand Do — Core Services & Specialties
Stylish and Fit offers a blend of wellness, fitness, nutrition, personal development, and style. Some of the key offerings:
• Lifestyle of Vitality Challenge (L.O.V. Challenge) — a flagship 4-month program combining live fitness classes, cooking/nutrition guidance, community,
/expert speakers, and style/image makeovers. At the end, there’s a “Big Reveal” where participants showcase their transformations. 
• Nutrition & Wellness Coaching including plant-based, energy-fueling eating plans; Dr. Tanjie published a cookbook: Serving You Life, which offers 75+ recipes meant to energize the body while being simple, nutritious, and time-friendly. 
• Fitness Guidance & Personal Training, as a certified trainer and fitness instructor, she leads fitness routines focused on long-term health and vitality. 
• Modeling Coaching/Fashion Show Execution/Style / Wardrobe / Personal Branding Support…helping participants discover or refine their signature style and confidence, integrating fashion with wellness transformation.

What Sets Stylish and Fit Apart — Its Unique Value & Philosophy
• Holistic approach: Instead of focusing solely on weight loss or fitness, Stylish and Fit blends nutrition, physical health, mental well-being, personal style, and purpose. This holistic model seeks transformation on multiple levels (body, mind, spirit, identity). 
• Integration of fashion/style + wellness: Many wellness brands stick to nutrition or exercise. Dr. Tanjie adds the dimension of style and personal presence, believing that looking and feeling your best supports long-term confidence, self-esteem, and vitality. 
• Community + lifestyle transformation — not quick fixes: The L.O.V. Challenge isn’t a crash diet or a short-term bootcamp. It’s a 4-month journey that builds lasting habits: fitness routines, healthy eating, style, and self-awareness. This sets a foundation for a healthy lifestyle for life. 
• Accessibility and broad reach (live & virtual): While starting as in-person programs, Stylish and Fit has adapted to reach people globally through virtual challenges and digital content — especially meaningful after relocating and shifting markets. 
• Purpose-driven transformation: The goal isn’t just to change bodies — it’s to help people discover or step into their purpose, live with renewed energy, self-esteem, and confidence, and flourish in all areas of life. 
What Dr. Tanjie & Stylish and Fit Are Most Proud Of — Brand Identity & Impact
• The success and global reach of the Lifestyle of Vitality Challenge: transforming lives not only physically, but mentally, emotionally, and spiritually — helping people “rock their purpose with vitality.” 
• The creation and publication of “Serving You Life,” offering accessible, nutritious, delicious recipes that support long-term health and energy while being realistic for everyday life. 
• The ability to pivot — to adapt as life and geography changed — while remaining true to the mission: even as Dr. Tanjie moved and relocated the business, she continued to evolve, expand, and reach new markets and people. 
• The holistic, creative, and compassionate approach: combining fitness, nutrition, style, purpose, and community-building — something many wellness brands don’t attempt — and seeing real, transformative results.

Do you have any advice for those looking to network or find a mentor?
One of the most important things you can do for your growth is to have a mentor…someone who has achieved more than you and can see farther than you can see right now. A mentor expands your vision, challenges your comfort zone, and pulls out potential you didn’t even know was there.
And just as vital is your network. Look around you: do you have a variety of ages, perspectives, and levels of experience in your circle? Diversity in your relationships strengthens your mind, your opportunities, and your future.
Networking is not just about exchanging information….it’s about building genuine relationships. You never know whose hand you’re shaking. That one connection may be the person who opens a door you didn’t even know existed and ushers you into a new realm of your greatness.
Never underestimate anyone, and never assume certain people matter more than others. Treat everyone like VIP.
Because mentorship builds you…
Networking multiplies you…
And people are often the bridge to the future you’re praying for.
