Meet the person behind Santosha ✨
Today I attended a wonderful social media workshop that encouraged me to show up more as me and connect with you all on a more personal level.
So here’s my first step…
The little girl in these photos could never have imagined where life would take her, but I think she’d be proud.
Proud that what started as a dream has grown into Santosha. Proud that I’ve built something with my own hands. Proud that every candle, wax melt, room spray and home fragrance product is made with care using vegan-friendly ingredients. And proud that behind the scenes, it’s just me juggling everything from making products and designing the website, to customer service, markets, event planning and all the hundreds of little jobs that come with running a small business.
There have been challenges, mistakes, long days and moments when I’ve questioned myself, but seeing how far Santosha has come reminds me why I started.
Most of all, I’m grateful.
Grateful to every person who has placed an order, stopped by my stall, recommended Santosha to a friend, shared a post, or simply cheered me on along the way.
You are the reason this small business continues to grow.
I’d love to share more of the journey with you, so over the coming weeks you’ll be seeing more personal posts, behind-the-scenes moments, stories and snippets of life as the person behind Santosha.
Thank you for being here 🤍
What’s one thing your younger self would be proud of you for today? Mine would be turning a dream into Santosha 🕯️
