Empowering You to Relax and Unwind

Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in candle-making but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Melody Cohn, Founder of ROAM Homegrown, located in Austin, TX, USA.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

ROAM Homegrown creates clean, natural candles + bath products that empower busy women to find time for themselves.

Tell us about yourself

I founded ROAM Homegrown in 2018 after leaving the world of corporate marketing and advertising. My goal has always been to help busy women find time for themselves through impactful products and beneficial rituals.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

My biggest accomplishment is finding the right team to help me grow, create amazing products and offer daily inspiration and positivity.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

Taking time off. I think about work a lot because I'm so passionate about what I do, but my family will always be my number one.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

Don't be afraid to make mistakes.
Let go of "imposter syndrome" you are an entrepreneur. Own it.
Portraying your real, honest work is so much better than trying to portray perfection.
