Euwan Godfrey

Step into the inspiring world of Barbara Ullman, a remarkable nurse with 45 years of experience who transformed her passion into a thriving business. At 60, Barbara embraced the challenge of addressing an overlooked need in senior care by founding Seen Your Feet, a unique traveling hand and foot spa. Her journey from pediatrics to geriatrics uncovered a significant gap in foot care services, particularly since Medicare doesn't cover routine care for seniors. Barbara's story is not just about business; it's a testament to resilience and reinvention, as she courageously started anew following personal challenges like a divorce. Her venture is dedicated to delivering essential care to those who can't easily access traditional salons, truly making a difference in her community.
Join us as we unravel myths about foot care with Barbara, who boldly challenges the notion that only podiatrists can trim toenails. As a certified foot care specialist, she underscores the vital role that trained nurses can play in providing this service. Beyond her professional achievements, Barbara enjoys tennis and nature, embodying a vibrant and active lifestyle. She urges listeners to explore the resources offered by the American Foot Care Nurses Association and her website, Seen Your Feet, to learn more about foot care services. Barbara's journey is a powerful reminder that it's never too late to leverage your skills and create a business that impacts lives in meaningful ways.
