Episode 304: Asking Yourself ‘What’s the Worst That Can Happen’ with Noura Sakkijha
Noura Sakkijha is gold baby, solid gold. As Co-Founder and CEO of Mejuri, the brand that encourages and empowers women to “buy yourself the damn diamond,” Noura also balances motherhood, running a business with her husband, and more. In this ep, we dive in on where Noura started her career journey (which was anything but linear), the learnings along the way, and how she is truly disrupting an industry that once catered to men buying jewelry for their significant other. Noura offers incredibly thoughtful insights around channeling the courage to start something of your own, and embracing the inevitable mistakes along the way as learning opportunities. Listen in to be truly inspired by the woman heading up one of the best fine jewelry brands on Instagram. We’ll also hear from LIVELY Ambassador Hayden Gibbs, who is the Founder of The New Principle, a brand making skincare, accessories and home goods. Listen in to hear the challenges she faced building the business off the salary of an entry level job and worrying about when she’d have the time to make her products.
