Description

The spark for a new business idea can come at any moment, and for Sheena Yaitanes that lightbulb moment came while studying chemistry and biology at UC Irvine. Frustrated by the lack of clean beauty products that not only looked good, but felt good on the skin, Sheena launched Kosas Cosmetics out of her Los Angeles home. Today, Kosas is a cult-favorite with celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow, Mandy Moore, Lily Aldridge, and more. In this episode, we sit down with the clean-beauty founder to dive deeper into the concept of turning your passion into profit, how she built an empire from her home, and why she went from bootstrapping to raising capital. Join the party on social @workparty and stay in-the-know at workparty.com.   Visit TheOuai.com and enter code PARTY to receive three free samples with your order.   Guest: Sheena Yaitanes, Founder & CEO, Kosas Cosmetics @kosas   Produced by Dear Media

Part work, Part party. WorkParty is a movement for a new generation of women like yourself, women who are redefining the meaning of work on their own terms. Welcome to WorkParty the podcast. Where creative and entrepreneurial women celebrate each other’s successes. WorkParty is the vision of Jaclyn Johnson, the powerhouse founder and CEO behind Create & Cultivate, the fastest growing online platform and conference for millennial women in business. In WorkParty the book, Jaclyn spills on how she found the determination to flip her rock bottom moment into hard work and success —and how you can, too. By age 32 she had sold a company, launched a new one, bought her first home, found the love of her life and had a million ups and downs in between. WorkParty the podcast is all the lessons she learned and the advice she wishes she had gotten along the way. You’ll hear from female founders, CEOs, entrepreneurs, creatives and so many other badass boss ladies. And what do you get from listening? We’re keeping it 100, giving you that career real-talk, and no BS advice. To check out the WorkParty blog and learn more about the WorkParty book and tour visit WorkParty.com.
