Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Nikki de Ocampo, Founder of holist(n)ik and Mom's Moss, located in Mississauga, ON, Canada.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

My business is focused on maternal wellness and overall health. I am a certified Holistic Nutritionist, so I work with clients 1:1, and I also sell sea moss gel! My customers are typically ready to conceive/struggle with infertility/are pregnant/in postpartum.

Tell us about yourself

I have a degree in kinesiology and health promotion. I am also a reiki master, but I felt like I was missing something - I wanted to work with clients and be able to help them in all aspects of wellness. So I went to school for holistic nutrition and absolutely loved it! Because of my passion for nutrition and helping others, I started making my own sea moss gel, and it has helped lots of people so far with digestive issues, energy, fertility, etc.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

Since I'm just starting out, I would say having returning customers has been a really big accomplishment so far!!

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

Wearing all the hats. It's hard, but it's also humbling and rewarding!

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. Just start, even if you're not completely ready!
  2. Ask for support when you need it from friends/family.
  3. Dream big, and don't stop!
