Meet Seslie Taylor | Mother, Business Woman, & Creative

We had the good fortune of connecting with Seslie Taylor and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Seslie, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I started my business during the pandemic with the intention of helping people who were struggling due to the impacts of COVID-19. My goal was to provide support and care during a challenging time while prioritizing the health and well-being of my children without relying on vaccinations.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?

My journey into herbalism began when I became a mother, which sparked my passion for creating natural wellness solutions. What truly sets me apart is my resilience and unique personality—traits that have guided me through challenges and helped me forge genuine connections with my clients and community.

I am most proud of my children, as they have been my greatest motivation. Without their encouragement and the drive they inspire in me, I don’t believe I would have accomplished as much as I have. They push me to aim higher and do more every single day.

The journey has not been easy, but one of the most valuable lessons I’ve learned is to keep pushing forward, especially during times of uncertainty. When things don’t seem to go as planned, I’ve learned to trust that God is orchestrating everything for my good. It’s not about leaning on my understanding but embracing His guidance, knowing He is aligning everything for success.

What I want the world to know about me and my brand is that every product I create is crafted with care, respect, and love. My business was born during the pandemic out of a desire to provide my community with high-quality organic wellness products. That commitment to quality and care remains at the heart of everything we do.

Professionally, I’ve gotten to where I am today by refusing to take “no” for an answer. I constantly seek to improve, asking why and finding the solutions to make my company better every single day. My brand is a testament to perseverance, purpose, and a genuine commitment to uplifting the health and wellness of others.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I would like to give credit to my entire support system that helps me chase after my dreams, especially my mother and my children. Their unwavering love, encouragement, and belief in me have been my foundation and driving force. My mother has been a source of wisdom, strength, and guidance, while my children continuously inspire me to strive for greatness and set an example of resilience and determination. This journey wouldn’t be possible without their support, and I am endlessly grateful for them.
