Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Barbara Stamis, a teacher, bodyworker, and healer, based in Topanga, CA, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I work with highly committed individuals who want to heal physical pain and emotional stress.
Tell us about yourself
I was a very injured and depleted dancer, given the news I would not be able to dance anymore because of the severity of my injury. I rebelled! I found practitioners to help educate and heal me and then became an advocate for others. I see and feel it as my service and who I am rather than a job or business. I love helping people discover another better way.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Continuously expanding, changing, and growing. I am always learning and working through my own self-sabotaging so that I may continue to serve. And I’ve had my business for almost 17 years!
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
Believing I’m doing enough.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Follow your bliss.
- Do and keep your numbers.
- Work with a personal and business coach.
