We had the good fortune of connecting with Hanna Bauer and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Hanna, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
starting my business was something that came to me rather quickly, yet it was a process that had been forming right before my eyes, my entire life. i have always had a drive to be authentic, vulnerable & to help other people. i have felt different than others for as long as i can remember, almost strange in my being because I knew i was made to do something magical i just hadn’t been gifted with that knowledge yet. my business is still evolving, ever growing and that is the beauty of it, i find.
however, holistic-ly hanna started as a way to help others heal from the same issues myself and my loved ones were facing. my family suffers from chronic illness of the body and mind & as i watched my sister in particular, struggle over the years to not find answers, i took it upon myself to dig deep and study root cause doctors. after years of implementing The Medical Medium, Anthony William’s practices, the changes I saw in myself and my life were too astonishing not to share. I quit my corporate job in Jan 2023 with absolutely no idea of what I was going to do but felt a calling I could not ignore, to leave the current circumstances I was in. I spent the first handful of months in 2023, digging deep into my soul trying to figure out what I needed to do but continued to fall short.
i had been uncovering my spiritual gifts heavily starting in 2021 after a breakup that changed the chemistry of my brain, my being, and my soul forever. this was single handedly the best thing that has ever happened to me but in the moments, the scariest, most uncovering dark knight of the soul that stripped me of everything i knew and everything i was. it was in these moments that i realized why i felt so different my whole life and why i never truly fit in. i was a healer, an intuitive, and a channel to the other side.
as these gifts evolve, change and grow, so does my business. what started out as a chronic illness based business has now evolved into a holistic wellness brand that helps people heal naturally through the earth & spirituality. taking my personal experiences, tragedies, traumas, etc and using them to help others heal. i know what its like to feel misunderstood, stuck, & (excuse my french,) like shit and my goal is to help others move through their pain and turn it into their purpose.
as time goes on and my brand continues to evolve, i hope to add more natural products, open up stores and help people all over the world.
Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
turning 27 this year and running my own brand is a dream come true for an out of the box thinker and entrepreneur like myself. i started working young, always enjoyed sitting with my dad in his office and pretending to work alongside him & have had many jobs over the years in all different fields. i worked at my swim club as a snack shack employee from the age of 14 until i left for college, worked at a supermarket, babysitting, dog sitting, insurance, film & production, marketing, etc. i have always enjoyed multiple fields and found that i am so multi-faceted which created boredom for me if i was in something too long.
as time goes on i realize more and more that i was not made to be behind a desk working corporate, rather being able to be and create my own destiny and use my gifts to continue to color outside the lines. i am constantly learning, evolving and growing with my career and that excites me. i work incredibly hard, i am always doing something to further my career and or establish myself. the path has not been easy but its beyond rewarding and looking back at all of the different things i have done and accomplished illuminated the path i am on now. i tried so many things before i made my decision to go at it my own way and it has been a blessing. i have taken the pain that i have suffered, the losses and the triumphs to help others and that is my favorite piece of it all.
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
miami – o m g what a place! i went to miami alone right after i quit my job in 2023 and it was an amazing experience. before that i had never been before but my recommendations are as follows: walking and or biking the south beach boardwalk, laying out on the beach (of course), stay at the hotel cryodon and have dinner at the tavern & drinks at the cadillac tiki bar bungalow
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
there have been so many people in my journey that helped me shape who i am, so many that have opened up their gifts to illuminate mine. i could shoutout a zillion people but for the sake of time would like to acknowledge a select few that i am so beyond grateful for.
in particular Anthony William who launched my interested, understanding and knowledge on root causes, my holistic doctors and coaches that have helped me heal, my reiki master and dear friend Kristen Stefiuk, my friend Tina Hurley who inspired me to start my business, and my mom who is my biggest cheerleader, support and angel sent from above.
