Today we’d like to introduce you to Rodi Bragg
Hi Rodi, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
I’ve been making herbal skincare products since 2012, which inspired me to become a Licensed Esthetician and help others with their skincare concerns. Since childhood, I’ve had a fascination with plants. My first job in high school helped me to afford to be able to buy natural skincare at the store. As an adult, I started working in a health food store, after experiencing bouts of traumatic events, and I turned to holistic beauty for healing myself, which inspired me to help others as well.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
In our previous interview together, I mentioned how I struggled with homelessness and trauma, before finding stable housing and a job that eventually inspired the course of my career. Working at the health food store in my early twenties helped me to find my footing and my calling in the alternative health field, including herbalism and natural skincare. I had experienced chronic cystic acne and scarring, and found relief with natural skincare products, which inspired me to make my own products at home. I started reading blogs online and experimenting with recipes at home. This eventually inspired me to start my own business, after friends and family loved their sample gifts I gave them.
