get in touch
Emily Godeck is an entrepreneur, business owner, certified personal trainer, nutrition coach, and fitness professional who has built her career around one core belief: you don't have to have everything figured out before you start — you just have to be willing to take the next step. Emily is the founder of Roundabout Cycling and Roundabout Fitness, where she has created a community focused on health, strength, confidence, and personal growth. What began as a small nine-bike cycling studio has continued to evolve into a larger vision encompassing fitness, nutrition, wellness, and community.
In 2026, Emily took one of the biggest leaps of her career when she became the majority owner of Savol Pools, an established Connecticut pool service, renovation, distribution, and contracting company. Stepping into an entirely different industry challenged her to quickly develop her skills in operations, technology, finance, systems, employee development, customer relationships, and leadership.
Today, Emily's story extends far beyond fitness or business ownership. She is passionate about helping people recognize what they are capable of, build confidence through action, embrace technology and change, and develop the skills necessary to reach their next level. Whether she is coaching a client through a health transformation, developing a team member, implementing a new system, solving a business problem, or navigating her own growth as an entrepreneur, Emily is known for turning "I don't know how" into "Let's figure it out." Her philosophy is simple: Start where you are. Use what you have. Learn what you don't know. Keep moving forward.
Emily's journey from fitness coach and nine-bike studio owner to multi-business entrepreneur demonstrates that you don't have to stay in one lane — and that some of life's biggest opportunities begin before you feel completely ready for them.
