Today we’d like to introduce you to Hiral Patadia.
So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
I’m a business owner, a writer/artist and a philanthropist. I have two independent partnership retail front stores for Swarovski. I would say I’m best known for my compassion towards humanity, my ambition to help others heal and my creative eye for design.
I started business with Swarovski at the age of 19; opened the second location at the age of 21. From creating business plans, hiring staff, reviewing sales, developing marketing strategies, to overseeing daily activity, I oftentimes need to exude the creative side of my mind.
Growing up, I have always been into different forms of expression. From writing to speaking to playing music, etc. but I love the concept of words, most, which is why writing has always been therapeutic for me. Through this, I started @popbyhiral – an online destination that cultivates the deep enjoyment of my written words and illustrated drawings which express the different points of perception that POP up in my mind. Knowing I can help heal others through the art of my words is the purpose behind why I continue to write.
We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
Absolutely not – the road to success is always under construction!!
I think any industry involves its own obstacles, no matter what you do. But rather than letting your struggles hinder your ability for success, you just have to persevere through it all by figuring out HOW to overcome it.
It’s not just about reaching your destination, but realizing that even through it all, you were able to make it forward; You learn something new, about yourself, and about the world around you, by experiencing pain.
So, as you know, we’re impressed with POP by Hiral – tell our readers more, for example what you’re most proud of and what sets you apart from others.
I write to heal hearts and create art to allow individuals to rediscover themselves.
Through developing @popbyhiral, I wanted to introduce products to play as beautiful reminders to help you feel good and to feel at peace within your soul. I design anything from home decor to prints and canvases, to accessories. I’m looking forward to seeing how many lives I can POP into, as I continue building this creative brand.
Whether it be my technical side or my creative side, I believe what makes me most successful is authenticity. It’s easy to get lost amidst what you see online or based on the timeline of other people’s success but staying absolutely true to yourself and to your purpose is what will set you up for your own greatness. Every individual’s path and story is different, which makes life fun. As long as you continue to be authentic, I believe your highest heights can be reached.
So, what’s next? Any big plans?
I’m just looking to impact and inspire many more lives. I want to HEAL more of the world by bringing unity through my words.
Seeing the products I’ve designed live, is quite an exciting feeling also; I want to continue growing and expanding this brand in the many ways that I believe I can.
