Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Elena Oulianova, Founder of Reiki Care by Elena, located in Montréal, QC, Canada.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I offer various private and group Reiki healing sessions, and I teach Reiki.
Tell us about yourself
My Reiki journey started with an introductory session that triggered my curiosity about this healing energy and changed my life. Since then, I have been witnessing wonderful transformations in my own life and in many of those I have met who receive and practice Reiki regularly. I am grateful to be of service assisting others in discovering Reiki through various sessions and trainings. I love learning and applying it in practice, teaching, and encouraging others to remember their own authenticity and inner gifts.
I also believe in growing together, expanding our consciousness, sharing kindness, compassion and love daily with every living being. By healing oneself, one's love and light add more healing to the Collective Consciousness of Mother Earth and beyond. Each of us has the ability to create more harmony within and around us. It is my pleasure to assist others on their journey to remember how unique, and capable each of us is.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Having a thriving Reiki practice with wonderful long-lasting relationships with my clients and students and being able to assist others in connecting deeper with their own authentic selves.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
Keeping a balance between taking care of others and myself by taking more time for myself as the business gets busier.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- If you love what you do and are willing to put in the time and effort, believe that you can have a successful business. You have to believe that your craft/ business will bring benefits to others.
- Treat every person who comes to you with respect and gratitude. Ask your customers to share their feedback with others. Word of mouth has amazing powers! Do a good job every time, and your business will be successful! Be aware of what energy you are sending out there. The same energy will come back to you.
- Be disciplined about the '' business part'' of the business. Your papers need to be in order.
