S2E6: On being friends first and growing a clean cosmetics brand - Liht Organics

About this episode

Since 2011, I have been a huge advocate for clean cosmetics and ultimately made the switch to less toxic, organic, and safe skincare brands. Unfortunately for me and those of us living in Asia, there weren’t a lot of locally or regionally produced products. Or if there were, it was obscure and hard to get access to. This is why I’m very excited to have Nerissa Low, Michelle Tan, and Stephanie Lee, in our show today to talk about what it’s like to build a clean beauty brand in Asia and the appetite for organic makeup in these markets.

What you'll learn

  • The delightful practice of celebrating friendship anniversaries
  • Why having shared values is the most important when choosing business partners
  • Why honest conversations improve all relationships
  • Taking time to celebrate small wins
  • The best strategy for business is to always begin with an end in mind
  • Why you need to forget the myth we’ve been told that friendships and business don’t mix
  • How being yourself in front of work friends is the epitome of good chief best friends
  • Why moms are the best!
