In this episode, I'm sitting down with Gilly, the founder of Gilly's Organics and the host of Everyday Rock Stars. Her story is wild - in the best way!
Gilly went from freelancing for huge brands like Estée Lauder, Clinique, Jo Malone, and Aveda… to suddenly losing the client that made up most of her work. Instead of going back to corporate, she followed this little spark she always had for mixing things, creating products, and helping people feel good in their skin.
We talk about how Gilly's Organics actually started (spoiler: a DIY scrub and a friend who believed in her), how she got her products into Whole Foods for eight straight years, what pushed her to expand from one product to a full nine-product line, how losing her mom changed everything, how her love for storytelling led to the Everyday Rock Stars podcast, the confidence, grit, and mindset pieces entrepreneurs never talk about, what she does when self-doubt creeps in, and the movement and routines that keep her grounded.
This one is full of honesty, hustle, heart, and that "just start" energy so many of us need.
If you're building something of your own or thinking about it - this episode is such a reminder that passion + consistency can take you further than you think!
