We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Naz Dian. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Naz below.

Naz, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. So let’s jump to your mission – what’s the backstory behind how you developed the mission that drives your brand?

Enya Mond is created with the mission of supporting mothers’ mental health. We’re not just making bags; We’re redefining luxury and fashion for mothers and selling a revolution in how mothers move through the world. With utmost quality and impressive functionality, each piece is carefully crafted to meet the needs of mom’s daily life while celebrating the woman behind the mother, reminding that her individuality is not lost in her love for her children. that she’s still herself, vibrant and unique with dreams, aspiration, and style.

The mission stems from a personal experience: Before my daughter came into my world, my life was all about the next big achievement: my MBA, climbing the corporate ladder, my accomplishments, and the social identity I built for myself.
But when I became a mother, in the beautiful chaos of motherhood, I lost myself, my identity and individuality. I battled post partum depression for many months.
I made it my mission to support mothers. I left my corporate role and created something with purpose – Enya Mond.

Naz, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

On an early October morning, after a whopping two weeks of false labor, my precious daughter was born. It was the happiest day of my life and one that truly put the world into perspective for me for the first time.

Before I became a mother to this tiny beauty, my main accomplishments were work-driven. I’ve obtained a business degree, had a successful career in corporate, and was well on my way to advancement. While becoming a mother was the most extraordinary experience of all, I never thought it would transform my entire life in such an unpredictable way. Becoming a new parent is a daunting experience like no other, and there is no right way to prepare for such a life-altering journey. Like many new mothers, I struggled with the concept of being a “good” mother. Between the lack of sleep, raging hormones, and self-doubt, I saw myself in a battle between my old life and the new.

Between the 3 am feedings and trying to be the best mommy I could, there was a looming fear of going back to work and not being able to balance it all. Once my daughter turned one, I had to face that fact, and although I loved being able to go back to work, every day felt like I was leaving half of my brain and my entire heart behind. Not being with my tiny human each day put me in a hard position, but watching her grow was such a gift.

Those 8 years of watching my beautiful daughter grow into the wonderful child she is now have changed my outlook on life. Since becoming a mother, I endured a lot of life’s challenges, including a miscarriage and cancer diagnosis, followed by treatment. Thankfully all of that is behind me now, and while it was difficult, it shaped me to become the person I was always meant to be in this world.

After being career-driven for so many years and climbing up that corporate ladder, I made one of the hardest decisions in my life and quit my job to pursue a passion I had felt since that October morning over 8 years ago. Thinking back to my early mommy moments, I thought about the new moms today and how important it is to feel like the best versions of themselves, no matter their circumstances. This idea propelled me to leave my job behind to start my own company Enya Mond. It was thought that I decided to start my own company, Enya Mond, to help women gain confidence in their journey into motherhood with premium products that are functional, stylish and remind them of the great job they’re doing with their babies.

Designed with the modern mother in mind, our bags combine elegance with functionality, offering a reminder of the woman behind the mother.

With multiple pockets, water-resistant lining, stroller straps and carry-on sleeve, our bags are a revolution in the palms of mothers everywhere. Imagine a bag that combines the elegance of a designer handbag with the practicality of a nursery on the go. That’s Enya Mond!
At our mom bag brand, we believe that motherhood is a journey to be celebrated, an adventure to be cherished. We are dedicated to providing moms with fashionable and functional products that make their lives easier and more beautiful. We understand the challenges that come with being a mom, but we also see the beauty in it. That’s why our mission is to empower moms by providing them with the tools they need to confidently navigate their daily challenges, while feeling confident and stylish.

Can you talk to us about manufacturing? How’d you figure it all out? We’d love to hear the story.

We use manufacturers overseas. Our bags are made with highest quality materials and have complex structures so it would take many hours to make one bag. as the result, the cost of manufacturing is very high, so our only option was to source manufacturers in China.

I’ve started sourcing through Alibaba. It was a very difficult road to take as I never had any experience working with China, and the 12 hours time difference didn’t help. After prototyping with more than 10 suppliers, we found a very good manufacturer that was able to create the quality we had in mind. However, once the large order was placed, they changed some of the materials and as the result didn’t deliver the quality we paid for.

So I had to find another supplier. This time around, since we had tested the market and confirmed the demand, we opted for one of the best bag manufacturers in China (obviously paid so much higher), but I didn’t stop there. I travelled to China for two week to not only see their facilities, but also see all the manufacturers of every material in the bags.

What do you think helped you build your reputation within your market?

I think customer service being our priority has given us a very good reputation is the market.
