Tell us about yourself

It was a deeply personal journey for me last 2015 to unapologetically hit the pause button on my professional life in pursuit of personal wellness. Work was life until my health took a turn, bringing my priorities sharply into focus. During the six-month journey, I regained my health and my purpose – to create a community of women who value self-care.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

Curating and nurturing a team of women who do life and business together.

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

Setting boundaries and maintaining a balance between work and life.

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

  1. Make sure the timing is right. Timing really is everything.
  2. Plan, plan, and plan some more.
  3. Trust yourself!
