have to thank us, we just want to welcome you.” It is still the same today. Those same people have become our family. Now, is this when you launched your company? Yes, I guess you can stay that. It was during that time that I developed my own line of skin care products. I’m actually an herbalist. I teach about medicinal plants. In the island, when I used to live there, my grandmother was someone they would call a medicine woman. And my dad as well. He and my grandmother worked with plants. If someone was sick in the village, or was not feeling good, or was having a headache, they would come to my grandmother, and she would dig up roots from under the ground and mix them together with some other things to make a remedy. And so, that’s how I began with my line of skincare products, using the same things that I learned as a child, because of my grandmother and my dad. What came next for you? One day, the owner of the Left Coast Art Studio said, “I have to be honest, I’m going into the nursing program, and I don’t know what to do with my studio. I think I’m going to quit.” And then she said, “Hey, how about you take over? You like it a lot and you live in Los Osos.” And I thought it was a joke, so I laughed. But a couple of days later, I was saying to myself, “Man, was she serious about that?” I was so afraid to ask her, because coming from a different country, into United States, and trying to have a business, that could be a little bit challenging, and my English was not perfect. So, I was afraid, but I also felt this desire of wanting to create something in this town where I can give back to this community that has given me so much love and support. So, I worked up enough courage to call her. She didn’t answer, so I left a message. One day went by, then another, so I figured that was the end of it. Finally, a week later she calls me back. It turns out that she had been camping in the mountains and there was no reception. We met to talk it over and she said, “I think you will be perfect for this community.” And so, I purchased the business.>> 40 | SLO LIFE MAGAZINE | AUG/SEP 2021
