“Even if I was to try and fail, I think that still would've been the best thing for me,” Eugenie Hows, Owner of Plant Vibes Café and Co-Owner of KYN Official
Episode description
Small business is so personal, such an expression of you, even if you didn’t intend to design it that way.
I believe that comes about when you truly lose yourself to the undoing and learning process that is being in business for yourself, just like today’s wonderful guest, Eugenie Hows, who is the Owner of Plant Vibes Café and Co-Owner of KYN Official vegan handbags.
In the sharing of her story, you’ll hear us chat about:
- When intuition kicks in and changes your professional course completely
- Exactly what it’s like doing a 180 from the career you’ve studied for and worked in to undertake a business you have no experience in
- Jumping in without a plan and surviving (thriving) to tell the story
- Accidentally upsetting people with your marketing
- The experience of hiring and managing people within an industry you don’t have personal experience with
- Bouncing back from hiring the wrong people
- Why you should get unproductive sometimes
- Entering into a new business partnership with someone you don’t know
- And balancing two very different businesses to grow
She’s crazy inspiring in her approach and a lovely human, if you’re looking for some small business community, you’re in the right place.
