“For people in business and for large corporations, it is always being about obsessed with whatever that product is that you're trying to deliver and making sure that you yourself would buy it for the price that you're selling it and feel thrilled. And whatever you're doing, right, you can do it well if you keep those kinds of things in mind”

“I think more generous with your spirit. So just rolling your sleeves up and learning skills as many as you can and looking without defensiveness at the feedback that you're getting from whatever it is that you're doing and then always asking yourself, how can I improve this? How can I make this even better? Is this the kind of feedback that I'm trying to get? It's a giant A-B test, right? Life is kind of an AV test, and if you look at what works and keep doing more of that and less of the other, right, it's about making more good decisions than bad. And I'm being honest with yourself. And yeah, it comes down to something very basic. You treat your customers like you would want to be treated. And I don't know if that always... It floats to the top”

“It's a great question. I think, listen, I was started very hands on, right? I literally gave facials nine times a day, waxed people's legs. And it's the feedback loop, and being open to learning. So I'm a real believer of hands-on training. I'm not, of course, I never had a business school training, so I don't know, I can't compare and contrast. But I know that the confidence that comes with learning and perfecting a skill and being able to do it yourself, so that if, for instance, some member of your team up and leaves, you can take over that and do that. There's a real confidence in it and that confidence kind of allows you to grow and to put more things underneath you and to feel.”

“Oh, yeah, absolutely. Yes, I think any kind of grief or really emotional situation that you go through, you become a different person and you can relate to other people who have the same situation or have a difficult home situation in a very quick way because they see the world in a similar way that you do, that small things don't really matter. And so while we're all doing a lot of small things to kind of push the world along every day, that they're not really that important in the end.”

“Rarely does the wind get knocked out of my sails because again when you're I think when you're young and you have a profound loss you take everything with relativity right it's like okay so what so you know people didn't buy soap and glory men's products but does it really matter on my deathbed will i even remember that i did that probably not so you can put it into perspective which is so important that”

“Failed really hard I mean, yeah, I mean, sure, we did at Soap and Glory, we did a men's range. It didn't really sell. Yeah, well, yeah, whatever. You know, was the price wrong? Was the packaging the wrong color? It just didn't fly. Do men really not use that many cosmetics that they're going to?”

“Because I think I compartmentalize them. I learn from them and then I move past them. There's no point in wallowing. But I do think it's really important. And it's funny, a lot of people will come to me and ask for mentorship. And I'll do my best in the time that I've got available. But what I really think has been my own mentor has been failure. And looking at the feedback that you get from that failure and kind of internalizing it and it becoming part of your DNA. And I really believe that if you don't fail yourself, someone telling you that you might fail is not the same as failing. Yeah, you know, you just have to fail once really hard, and you're not going to make that mistake again.”

“And at some stage, you don't need as much of what I do, you need more of what they do, and so it depends like how much do they need me. But I think just keeping that quality very high is always something that you need a particular personality to be leading. So I think that's where it would be hard to replace what I do”

If I find, okay, actually, I've created all the stuff I know how to create. And now I can, I don't know, I'm just chatting with the people, but you know how businesses go through different stages where different skill sets are needed?

“I read a quote once that said, like for people who have multiple marriages, it's like the first time you marry for love, the second time is for money, and the third time is for companionship. And so I'm probably on companionship, but I want to do it really well because it is, you know, it's a lot of fun to be able to provide this to so many people. And that love that you get back from it, if you're doing it well, is quite a nice feeling to have every day.”

“It's the community. I have a small family, so we're four. And then I don't have, I have two sisters and my mom, and then extended, you know, cousins who I don't really connect with that much because they're in Western Canada. And so for me, being able to have this community of people who, okay, yes, they have in a shop from me, but they're quite fun. And most of our customers are of the same spirit. It's like having hundreds of thousands of friends. And so they're out there chatting about the latest thing. It's just like a social club a little bit. And we happen to all buy bewed products and be really excited when the next thing is launching.”

“They don't. Well, listen, from what I've read, listened, heard, et cetera, that the new skill that everyone's going to have to have is not to be identified by what you were doing for the last 10 years because there's so many jobs, right? So many careers that will just be gone. And so we have to train the next gen who's coming up to not think, well, I'm this. You have to be ready to say, well, that doesn't exist anymore. I'm going to pivot or I have to go get retrained and not have your identity completely wrapped up in what you do, right? It's more about your ability to morph and learn. And so being this lifelong learner is so important.”

“And he designed a few ranges. And, you know, they weren't always commercially successful, but he was just the coolest person around. And I remember I lost touch with him for a little while, you know, a few years because he stopped working at the spa. And when I found him again somehow, because again, this is pre-email, right?

“Well, you know, you can wait around for someone to tell you that you're the one who can do it, or it's your turn, or you can just do it yourself, right? You're the one who is going to tell you that you can do something. No one is going to pick you out of a line and say, hey, go. You have to put yourself out there. So I remember I had this fantastic friend whose name's Emilio Sosa. And he actually worked. He was a budding fashion designer. And in New York a long time ago, and he worked at the front desk at Bliss for a while. And it was just his, you know, like actors would work at a restaurant.”

Sam Harris would say he's probably taking place every moment of your waking existence, right? I wish I would have been more polite. I wish because if you're not, you have to then live with how you feel about yourself. And that... Is more important than anything.

“Oh, the deathbed test is like, what are you going to do on your deathbed think back and go, God, I wish I would have done more of that? Or I wish I would have tried this or we'd tried that. And so if you live, this actually was something that I think her name was Tina Johnson. She was the CEO of Sax Fifth Avenue. I remember having a meeting with her and she said, you know what? I just always use the deathbed test. It's like, I don't want to miss my kids, you know, this particular event or ceremony, right? You will kick yourself if you miss the grade five graduation. That is always going to be more important than your conversion rate.”

You know how he has those little daily, there's like a little daily thing that pops up and you can listen to. And he was talking once about how you have one opportunity to live this moment. And you have one opportunity to have an interaction with someone that is this interaction. Like, make it good, right? And just thinking, well, I can either Look at this as an opportunity and a gift, or I can be down and negative about it and you just choose. So I try as much as possible to choose even if I have, you know, cranky teenagers or whatever work thing going on to choose to really be positive about the fact that I'm given the opportunity to live that moment.”

“I don't know if you can be, right? Because sometimes work is really interesting also, right? So I've got two teenage boys, right? They sometimes come out of their rooms. I'm not. And so sometimes I'll be on social media. Chatting with customers, right? Giving them advice, telling them what to use on their skin. It's actually quite social as it is social media. I go home at night because I'm hoping they will come out of their rooms and I can spend time with them. But we have dinner and then they usually go want to play video games because all their friends are on video games. So if they do come out of their room, you know, at some point, I might be in the middle of something. Am I really good at just turning that off and saying, I am here for you, young man? Not always.”

“Well, it depends, I suppose, on your appetite for risk. And if you have risk anymore, right? So if you've already managed to, you know, sell something and you have a little bit of money in the bank, then having two people going out there and risking it all. Is okay because you have something to fall back on. I think certainly having a partner who understands what you're going through day to day and will listen to you. You know, we talked about being able to see someone. It's so important to have someone who sees you.”

“It was exciting to do something mass. Get mass price points because you could reach more people. So more people could afford the joy that you were trying to bring through that product. So that's always really nice because having something that's only affordable. Well, I love high quality things, the exclusion of people that comes along with a luxury price point. I don't like so much, right? So the idea of luxury for affordable, of course, is also the holy grail. So building, it was, you know, building soap and glory was also a real experience in terms of learning how to deal with a retailer who really had a monopolistic grip on a country, right? Because Boots was the power, you know, the all-powerful. So that was a real learning curve.”

So, I can't, you know, it would be difficult for me if I'm trying to create a business centered around something that I don't want or have a need for. I don't know if I would be as good at it. Super easy to do Beauty Pie because I love beauty products. I love candles. I love supplements. I know all the good labs. I've worked with them for 30 years. I know where to get the good stuff.

And I remember we launched, and I think that the first week, I think we did $300? Yeah, and then I couldn't figure out why. So I go into my local boots and it's on the bottom shelf. And so that was, they don't reset the shelves for 10 months. So you start just thinking, oh my God, I'm going to be making $300 a week. For 10 months until they reset the shelves and I fight my way to the top.”

And I launched in Harvey Nichols and it was actually quite a good success, but Harvey Nichols only has Night's Bridge and then a few other stores around the country. And I knew I wasn't going to be able to make much of a splash just being in Harvey Nichols on a few shelves. So Boots came to us and said, you know, would you like to roll out into different boot stores? That was really interesting because I thought this is going to be amazing. Oh my God, we're going to go into boots. We're going to make like millions.”
