Graceful Rulebreakers

Can I start a business?

Can I start a business? SHOULD I start a business? How would I even get started?
Today's episode features special guest, self-care advocate and business owner Ebeny Bland (known as Ebeny B.). Ebeny, a licensed massage therapist, is the founder of Escape Haven & Co. Day Spa, & as well as candle company, Escape Haven & Co. In my mind, there is no better person to speak on the topic of deciding to go into business for yourself. Ebeny takes pride in sharing the process of what entrepreneurship really looks like behind the scenes to encourage those who may be hesitant in their own journey.
Ebeny has been successful in using her product line of candles to impact the world through conversations, mentorship, & education. Tune in and hear more about her journey and words of wisdom for aspiring, new, and even experienced entrepreneurs.
I met Ebeny on my quest to design a custom candle for my business and holy wow - I am so grateful we connected because she is not only incredibly gifted creatively (seriously, I'm obsessed with my branded candle/scent) and a true, authentic leader in business but she is also an amazing human.
