We had the good fortune of connecting with Nagmeh Hamidian and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Nagmeh, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I wanted to help people gain confidence and to “feel beautiful” in an authentic different way and form of education. I wanted to do this by incorporating cutting edge technology so that we can provide anyone and anywhere in the world to as many people as possible accurate, customized treatment plans to achieve their healthiest skin yet!

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
My favorite word is: Resilience. I learned from an early age to be resilient. Growing up as the only child and migrating from different countries from living in refugee camps with a dying father and a terrified mother, I learned early on to become a strong independent resilient woman. This mentality transferred into my will to never give up and to always rise up. Early on I knew I had an entrepreneurial mindset and will. My first business was a franchise service boutique. It was not easy however I knew from that experience that I wanted to have my own business one day. Along the way I did fail but I also learned that I will never give up and I will always rise. Today I strive to be a woman who can help young girls and women gain self confidence and resilience themselves.
My vision with our brand is to be able to provide education. and mentorship via a unique technology platform were we can reach as many as possible regardless of location, gender or ethnicity.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I love traveling. I speak 4 languages and grew up around people from different parts of the world. So culture is very important to me as is travelling. Of course a healthy lifestyle and mentality is the core of my business and that is represented in my personal life as well. We would start the day with a hike in a beautiful area, surrounded by water or nature. Then we would go get a quality cup of coffee (not the chain ones 😉 and a healthy brunch. My favorite brunch spots are from farm to table places with organic ingredients.
If you are my friend then you know that everything I do will contribute to achieving healthier skin and body from within. What we do, what we eat, how we think.
So our week would consist of fitness activities, I like to try new ones, good brunch spots,, dinner spots with “clean” food and a view of course:) I firmly believe in energy. The places we go to with good vibes and energy is important as is the people we surround ourselves with. Art museums and galleries are also on the list, but in general I think we put too much pressure on ourselves as to what”fun” really is. Relaxing and doing nothing can also be fun and beneficial 🙂
