How I Overcame My Fears and Learned to Believe in Myself—and How You Can Too
Hey, creative soul! Do you have confidence in yourself? Most days, I do. But let me be real with you—when I first launched Orglamix, self-belief was a luxury I often couldn’t afford. There were days I doubted everything: why would stores even want my line? I couldn’t imagine ever landing a glossy magazine feature or seeing a celebrity rock one of my products. It all felt impossibly out of reach.
I remember those early days all too well. Every rejection stung, and I questioned if my dream was even worth chasing. Yet, against all odds, I secured placement in over 1,200 stores, graced more than 1500 blogs, dozens of magazines, and witnessed celebrities showcasing my products in both magazines and movies. Even with all these wins, there were still moments when self-doubt crept back in. I sought advice from experts with fancy MBAs and even enlisted help from those with MAC pedigrees, hoping their guidance would light the way. But I soon learned that an MBA doesn’t guarantee brilliance—it only means they’ve been to business school.
At one point, things hit rock bottom. I had to close my company. I felt like a complete failure. In the midst of that darkness, a few weeks later, my husband reminded me something vital: I was still me. That realization sparked the beginning of rebuilding my self-belief, one step at a time.
And here’s where I want to share something with you: I BELIEVE IN YOU.

I know firsthand how hard it is to muster that confidence when every step feels like a leap into the unknown. But trust me—if I can reclaim my power and rebuild from scratch, so can you. Each setback, every mistake, is simply a stepping stone on the journey toward your own success.
