Today we’d like to introduce you to Shannon Chappell.
Hi Shannon, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I started my business, Scentual Soothers, in 2022 after taking a leap of faith and quitting my job of 13 years. I realized that my previous job no longer served me purpose, and I knew I wanted to pursue entrepreneurship, even though I wasn’t sure what I wanted to sell initially. During a period of self-transformation, I spent six months in isolation, engaging in constant prayer and meditation. It was during this time that the concept of Scentual Soothers came to life.
My strong work ethic, leadership qualities, and organizational skills have been instrumental in keeping my business thriving. I am resilient and passionate about my brand because it’s not just about making money; it’s about having a meaningful impact on people’s lives.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
The journey has been smooth, with its fair share of bumps and hurdles. Coming from a background in store management, I had a solid understanding of what it takes to run a business. However, one of the biggest challenges I’ve faced is wearing all the hats. Balancing the business side with the creative aspects and managing social media can be overwhelming. Despite these challenges, I believe that the effort you put in directly correlates with the success you achieve, so I’m committed to persevering and pushing forward.
Thanks – so, what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
I am an artist and creative with a diverse career that includes acting, writing, modeling, and producing. I’ve been acting for most of my life, appearing in movies and TV shows. However, given the uncertainty of the entertainment industry, I realized I couldn’t solely rely on it for my livelihood. This led me to create Scentual Soothers, a business I am incredibly proud of.
Out of all the sets I’ve worked on and roles I’ve played, Scentual Soothers stands out as my proudest achievement because it’s something I have complete control over. It’s mine, and no one can take it from me. I take immense pride in the positive impact my brand has on others, the loyalty of my returning customers, and the organic promotion from satisfied clients.
What sets me apart is the unique essence of my brand, which focuses on inspiring customers to set intentions and affirmations, encouraging them to be their best selves. Having done extensive self-work, I am passionate about and genuinely care for the well-being of others. This personal touch and dedication to fostering positive change make Scentual Soothers truly distinctive.
Can you talk to us a bit about the role of luck?
I don’t believe in luck. I firmly believe that what is meant for you is meant for YOU, and nothing can get in the way of that. Rather than attributing my success to luck, I consider myself truly blessed. My achievements stem from hard work, dedication, and the effort I’ve invested in building my business from the ground up. It’s not about luck; it’s about perseverance and commitment. If something doesn’t go as planned, I believe it’s often the Most High saving me from something that doesn’t serve me.
