Today we’d like to introduce you to Claudia Pretelt.
Claudia, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
Three years ago I became a mother and my life changed completely. As my daughter grew up I wanted to be a conscious mom, I wanted to make sure I was giving my daughter good quality things. I started to read about food, health and sustainable habits.I was in the mission to enjoy my role as a mom and at the same time trying to generate a positive impact in the world, this goal pushed me to educate my self in several topics and one of those was the use of daily beauty products. Of all the things I learned, the beauty industry caught my attention, because I felt that people still do not a lot about this topic, about the toxic ingredients, about the regulations. I have learned than in the US the existing regulation for beauty products, is the same for the last 80 years, can you imagine how bad it is? I got so passionate about this topic that my husband suggested me to create a blog and share what I have learned and then I created Beauty Made Organic, a project to share non-toxic beauty tips and a healthier lifestyle with sustainable practices.
My greatest source of inspiration is my daughter and is because of I her I am always looking for more information, to make better and more conscious decisions.
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
Starting a new project has brought a lot of joy, but it has also brought a lot of learnings. During this process, I have learned that getting the project where I want takes time and a lot of dedication, especially when you have to divide your time into a regular job, your family and study, also because some times I have to sacrifice time with my family to be able to work in my project. Being an entrepreneur means you have to learn to do everything in order to grow your business, and although it has been difficult because there are some things I have to do that are not natural to me, I have learned so much. Every achievement that I get I value it a lot more.
