In this week’s episode, I talk with Mimi Ghandour, the founder of Mimi Yoga. Mimi gets candid right off the bat and shares some personal struggles that’s she dealt with over the past few months– and how overcoming them has enabled her to create a global platform in the midst of a pandemic!
The summer of 2020 will be one that we’ll never forget. In fact, it’s likely that it’ll be included in the history books for years to come. And sadly, not for a good reason. Remember on Dec 31, 2019 when literally everyone was talking about how 2020 will be THE YEAR! …thinking back, I wish I would have asked “the year of what exactly? Just need to clarify so that I’m prepared…” 😆
BUT – despite all the craziness that’s gone on over the last few months, 2020 has given us some gems and for that – I’m thankful. For example, the booze business – THRIVING! Why? Because everyone is at home and what the heck else is there to do! 🤷🏻♀️ {PSA: I’m not condoning binge drinking, nor am I promoting it as a form of medication, I’m simply stating that it is more than OK to enjoy an adult bev (as long as you’re 21+!) every once in a while.😉}
Now, this leads me to why we’re all here today. There’s a brand new adult wine bev on the block that’s literally blowing up. It’s already been named as one of the top drinks for summer by various magazines and it JUST launched nationwide in May. 😱 It’s called Rosé Water.
Things are weird right now, aren’t they? Kind of an abrupt way to start off a blog post, but it’s the first and most relevant thing that came to mind when I sat down to right this intro because THINGS ARE WEIRD RIGHT NOW. The global COVID-19 pandemic that’s now caused state-wide mandatory stay-at-home orders, has shut down hundreds of thousands of businesses across the country, caused millions of people to lose their jobs and even more devastating…thousands of lives have been lost. It’s an extremely difficult time right now for all of us. Even those that DO still have their jobs and their health. But one thing that this quarantine has given us is time.
CBD…THC…BRB. Seriously though…brb because I can’t even keep up with what’s the latest and greatest and it’s actually my job! 🤪 That said, I can only imagine what it’s like out there for people that are genuinely curious about CBD. CBD by the way, is short for Cannabidiol, one of the many chemical compounds found in marijuana and hemp. Thing is, you’re probably already familiar with THC, which is another compound found in the cannabis plant. But unlike THC, CBD isn’t psychoactive. Meaning, it doesn’t get you high like THC does. This fact alone is probably one of the most frequently asked questions and most common misconception when it comes to CBD.
It wasn’t until about a five years ago that I really started getting into home decor and decorating, rearranging, etc. And when I started my business over a year ago now, I started thinking more about making sure the space that I was using to work out of was the most productive and positive.
