When was your lightbulb moment?
I was a vegan chef and yoga teacher well before I launched my product line. I cooked with a lot of superfoods and also started experimenting with superfood-infused skincare masks. One of my clients was a celebrity aesthetician in Los Angeles who experienced excellent results using my products during her facials. It was then that I had an ‘aha’ moment and saw an unexplored niche in the skincare market that I was determined to pursue.

Create Community. Use social media to find your niche. Empower and inspire your employees. Be friendly, and get to know your competitors.
