Joleen Bingham

As a parent of three who has been overwhelmed, over-stressed and overworked, Joleen loves working with parents and people who are struggling to make their businesses successful while still working other jobs.

As the Tinker North America Mentor, Joleen loves guiding entrepreneurs to reach the next level of success. She helps these clients clarify their strategies for building wealth and develop their leadership skills so they can grow personally and professionally.

In her role as the CEO and owner of 13 Stripes Fitness, Rebuild Fitness Training and Omni Fitness, Joleen achieved functional retirement before the age of 40. She is now committed to helping others improve their businesses and create amazing lives for themselves and their families outside those businesses.

When she and husband Leighton purchased 13 Stripes CrossFit in 2016, she had just given birth to their second child, and Leighton missed much of the first three weeks of the infant’s life working at the gym in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Given the stress on their marriage, the Binghams contacted Chris Cooper and started with Two-Brain Business in 2017. 

After quadrupling their revenue, Joleen opened a second location—13 Stripes Fitness—in nearby Dillsburg. Applying what she had learned, she achieved profitability in just three months, with personal training providing 70 percent of the revenue. 

From there, she continued to expand by starting Rebuild Fitness Training—which specializes in working with people who are in chronic pain or returning to fitness after illness, injury or surgery. Most recently, she purchased another gym, Omni Fitness, which is a personal-training-only studio.

This expansion has allowed Joleen to create additional revenue streams including residential real estate and other investments.

In addition to numerous fitness credentials, Joleen holds a bachelor of science degree in chemistry and a master’s degree in curriculum and instruction. She was a science and gifted-education teacher for 12 years and is highly skilled in helping people learn new things. 

In her spare hours—provided by her successful businesses—Joleen enjoys learning new things, spending time with her three children and traveling.
