We had the good fortune of connecting with Kavita Sahai and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Kavita, what is the most important factor behind your success?

What should our readers know about your business?
I started my work life as an investment banker and quickly climbed up the finance food chain, but I found myself deeply dissatisfied. No amount of “success” left me feeling fulfilled and to make it worse I started breaking out (which didn’t even happen when I was a teen). I stumbled upon an apothecary that specialized in essential oils and my life was forever changed. I fell in love with the power of plants and alternative modalities of healing. I knew that bringing people back to nature was my purpose and I dove into learning everything about botanicals, aromatherapy, Ayurvedic beauty, yoga and human design. Through my research, I realized that often the botanicals that work best for a person’s skin come from the land of their ancestors (mother nature knows best) – it was then I knew I wanted to create a face oil that incorporated a person’s origin story and skin goals. With the help of AI and an amazing team of dermatologists and natural product experts, we were able to launch something that is truly unique and effective. To continue to add value, because the only way to really look good on the outside is to feel good inside, we chose to further differentiate by offering people custom self care rituals with the oils based on their human design (a combination of I-Ching, the kabbalah, the chakra system, and astrology) to help them glow inside and out.
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
On Friday we would go to the Wynwood walls and eat at Joey’s. Saturday morning we would do Yoga in the Park at Sanborn Square with Leslie Glickman and eat brunch at Gary Rack’s Farmhouse table. We would then go to the beach and maybe grab a late afternoon tea at The Modern Rose. For dinner, we would hang out near Deerfield Pier and Sunday we might paddle board and then take in the sauna at Healing Moments.
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
The Entrepreneur Organization and more specifically my forum in it has greatly helped me navigate many business challenges and kept me accountable to my goals. Being part of a community of like-minded entrepreneurs provided me with a wealth of knowledge and expertise (from how to reduce shipping costs during COVID to moving from wholesale to an e-commerce based platform) that I use to address business challenges and identify new opportunities.
