πŸ’«Our StoryπŸ’« I started Yougi at a difficult time in my life. I had worked for large retailers in buying and product development for 12 year and I was burnt out and tired of life. I was trying to fit into someone’s else’s narrative of what life should look like. I don’t know if you resonate? ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ Essential oils, yoga and ritual are what brought me back to life. I made the first candle range with the hope that it might help other people struggling with their emotional well-being too. ​​​​​​​​ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀​​​​​​​​ I made a conscious decision to to invest in sustainable, cruelty-free and wildcrafted ingredients 🌱because, despite often costing a lot more, they have been proven to be far more potent and effective (not to mention more environmentally friendly) than their mass-produced or synthetic equivalents.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀​​​​​​​​ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀​​​​​​​​ Like me, you fell in love with candle-making, natural ingredients and therapeutic grade essential oils.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ We have just launched a Start a Candle Making Business Course. It is a 5 part live online course where I will guide you though the process of launching and growing a candle brand. Along with tips on how to approach retailers. We went from zero to selling in Selfridges in two years, it is possible! ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ This course is an offering to empower more people to start a business and up level. What are you waiting for…. ✨❀️
