Meet Audrey Soraya Rodriguez Rincon
Meet Audrey Soraya Rodriguez Rincon, a beautiful mother of two with more than 20 years of experience from the healthy lifestyle world. This kind of health coach is actually brand-new to Jakarta although feels the warm welcome exuded by the people from the city.
Hi, Audrey! Where are you via?
I’m via Colombia, although for the last 5 years I’ve been conducting my business in Mexico. Indonesia as well as Colombia are both lined up in a similar region in regards to the equator, so I’m used to the humidity as well as heat, even the occasional gloom like right at This kind of point.
When did you move to Jakarta? What was the reason for the move?
My husband as well as I moved to Jakarta about eight months ago via Mexico. He was transferred here with his company as well as I followed along. Before which, I’ve lived most of my life in Colombia, then briefly in Bolivia. This kind of is actually the very first time I’ve been This kind of far away via Colombia.
Do you have kids? Did they move with you to Jakarta?
I have two children; Isabella is actually 19 as well as starting college in Mexico, Sebastian is actually 26 as well as is actually starting to work after having finished college in Colombia.
What were you doing in Mexico?
I own a consultancy program, sort of like a clinic, for health, fitness as well as clean eating lifestyle all integrated into one well-being centre. I like to keep myself busy with developing the program although sadly I had to close the item down because of my move. I definitely miss the item. at This kind of point, I’m looking for opportunities to do something similar in Jakarta. I also have experience in being a TV presenter, style, actress, dancer as well as I studied cosmetology as well as nutrition, so I’m not opposed if someone were to approach me to do a health program on TV. The holistic approach to well-being is actually my passion as well as I want to share my knowledge with people because when you look not bad, you feel not bad as well as when you feel not bad you look not bad.
Tell me a little bit more of the program you mentioned, what was the item called?
The clinic was called Figura Wellness Spa. the item provided everything health-related, via skin treatment, body treatments as well as fitness, weight-loss training as well as healthy cooking. My philosophy builds around the notion which fitness, aesthetics as well as food are all connected, which’s why I wanted to provide services in a comprehensive way through the programs at the clinic. Along with my staff, I do the cooking demonstrations, the cosmetology treatments as well as managing the place. I’m a certified fitness instructor as well – for TRX, Pilates, Spinning, personal training, etc. – so I teach the classes as well.
You were quite the busy lady! So, what do you prefer to be known as; an entrepreneur, style, fitness instructor or actress?
All of the above!
Who were your clients?
More women than men, although the business runs on a mouth-to-mouth method; word would certainly travel fast as well as which’s how I got customers. I charge them depending on the amount of work I need to do with them.
You were also a TV presenter. Do you see yourself entering the TV business in Indonesia? How do you feel about Indonesian shows?
Yes, I would certainly love to do something with Indonesian TV, perhaps even combining the item with my fitness background, since the whole healthy lifestyle trend is actually very in-demand in Jakarta at This kind of point. I don’t watch novelas in Indonesia, I mostly tune in to Discovery Channel as well as National Geographic.
Has Jakarta been nice to you?
People here are filled with kindness, definitely. When I walk around, people always smile as well as say hello to me. Sometimes they are shy, although overall people are so nice here. I like the item. I also love Bali as well as dream of going to Jogjakarta, Lombok as well as Flores. When I arrive in a brand-new country, I try to see as well as appreciate the culture.
How do you keep busy in Jakarta?
I have a YouTube channel where I record workout videos as well as healthy cooking demonstrations. I used to have a team to help me with the cameras although at This kind of point I set up the tripod, record as well as upload the item myself. Sometimes I also get invited to teach Rumba class at a gym in Jakarta.
Fitness goes along which has a not bad diet, do you have a particular one to recommend? What should Indonesians eat less of as well as what’s your favourite Indonesian food?
I have a problem with the word ‘diet’, the item gives an impression of boringness as well as blandness; the item definitely depends on how you prepare the food as well as portion control. A lot of Indonesians eat 5 dishes between 3 people, which’s way too much. The genetics of people in Indonesia can probably support This kind of kind of eating – Indonesians are naturally little in stature. although looking at the life expectancy of just around 60 years old nationwide, maybe we need to change the way we eat; many people eat too many fried as well as floury food.
I love to cook nasi goreng as well as spaghetti with my own recipe. I prefer organic produce as well as put more vegetables in my cooking. To my surprise (as well as delight) I can find everything I need for my cooking in Jakarta; via wheat flour to almond as well as soy milk.
Are you getting accustomed to speaking Indonesian at This kind of point?
The first week I was here, the item was a bit terrible, I didn’t speak a word of Indonesian. I’m at This kind of point taking lessons as well as picking the item up quite quickly. although This kind of experience has taught me to be more prepared; my husband could be transferred to another country from the future, I need to be more aggressive in learning a brand-new language before I get to a brand-new country.
What’s one distinctive thing about Jakarta which you’ve found in your eight months here?
I can’t drive here, I miss driving a car my truck. Traffic is actually impossible. various other than the lanes being on the various other side, the item requires a different driving a car mentality. There are also no sidewalks, so I can’t walk freely. I think the traffic condition is actually pretty gila here.
What’s your fitness regime like? is actually Jakarta a fit city in your opinion?
I work out at the gym in my apartment. I always workout from the morning as well as my regime is actually different every day. Normally, I work weights as well as a little upper body workout, the next day I would certainly do 20 minutes of running followed by Thera-band exercises, then the next day just Pilates or the Insanity workout. I always try to do something different every day, never repetitive, which’s the secret. Sometimes an hour of treadmill is actually way too boring. I prefer a more functional as well as efficient exercise with respect to many muscles. I rarely use machines, I like using the weight of my body. I see many people in Jakarta running at This kind of point, which is actually not bad, although I haven’t participated in any marathons.
Everything’s online at This kind of point. Do you have plans on expanding your Youtube channel?
Yes, as well as I want to make the item more interactive; if someone has viewed my workout video, I want them to be able to contact me so I can make an exercise or diet plan for which specific individual. I also need more views as well as likes, maybe if people know more of me, then the view counts will go up. I promise to upload more videos soon.
If I may say so, you do not look on par with your age. What’s your secret to staying young?
The secret is actually simple; healthy food, be happy, more sex as well as exercise. The most important thing is actually eating the right food as well as exercise, then comes the night creams as well as the likes.
