We had the good fortune of connecting with Nicole Desir and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Nicole, maybe we can start at the very start – the idea – how did you come up with the idea for your business?
How did you come up with the idea for your business?
My business idea found me! I knew from a young age I wanted to work for myself. The thought of waking up, and clocking in a job to pursue someones else’s dream for the rest of my life just didn’t sit well with me.
As a natural-born leader, my love for helping and empowering others landed me in leadership roles early on in my career. While I was always appreciative and excited to take on each opportunity, I noticed not long after stepping into each role the excitement would eventually fade, and I would find myself wanting more.
I loved being able to inspire, mentor, and support but dreaded the days I had to have tougher conversations or deliver bad news due to situations out of my control. I started to evaluate what was happening during those moments in my career that caused my excitement to die.
A light bulb came on. It was not the job it was ME! If I wanted to live a life and work in a field that I loved I would have to live in my purpose. Doing things under my terms, and playing by my own rules.
Still unsure of what I wanted for my business, or when and how I would achieve it, one thing was clear, working for myself was the BEST option for me. In 2019 – 2020 I started researching cosmetic surgery and stumbled across an article discussing non-invasive procedures. I learned all about body contouring, wood therapy, skin-tightening, radio frequency, cavitation, body wraps, and many more non-invasive services. I was amazed at the results you could get, and the fact that it was beneficial to both people opting out of traditional cosmetic surgery as well as people who did have traditional cosmetic surgery and wanted to maintain their results.
After a year and a half of extensive research, taking multiple trainings, and teaching myself proven techniques through practice I knew this was it! This was the business that would allow me to fulfill my purpose. My results spoke for themselves!
I would be able to mentor, guide, and support women and men of all backgrounds, by helping them feel more confident, and better about themselves through the many non-invasive services I’d offer. Luxe Vanity Trap Med Spa was born!
What should our readers know about your business?
Whats sets me apart from others is I am me and they are them! I truly believe everyone has their own unique touch and there’s room for us ALL to win! I don’t look at other establishments as competition, instead I ask myself is there a way we can colab.
Nothing good comes easy. I have faced many challenges along the way, and truthfully as with anything in life that is to be expected. Educating myself, investing in courses, and putting myself in front of people who could add value to the direction I wanted to go made my path a lot smoother. There is always something to learn, good or bad. Growth is birthed through lessons, so I’m always the student – even when I’m the teacher!
My best practice thus far is not allowing time to pass before I take the next step. Start with what you have, and GO! Time waits for no one, and I have found the more time I allow to go by without execution I start to lose motivation. I don’t wait, I keep it moving!
