Not many people can say their “big idea” started with a very poorly timed rash. But for former concert pianist turned accidental entrepreneur, Angela Jia Kim, that’s pretty much exactly how Om Aroma & Co. got it’s start. What began as a homemade solution to a very uncomfortable situation grew from hobby to two eco-chic boutique spas to fashion magazine darling (if it’s winning awards in Allure, this cream has got to be amazing, right?)
While all of that might seem like some pretty satisfying success, Angela didn’t stop there. Seeing the power of female creators working together, she started Savor the Success to help women turn great ideas into even better businesses. Which got her thinking, again.
“Once [Savor the Success] was launched I began thinking about how we share our dreams that have come true with the world.” Those thoughts and a discussion-laced lunch with Rachel Hofstetter (former O, The Oprah Magazine editor and IWHJ Leading Lady) led the two to create PR School.
Sound hectic? Well let’s just say there’s a reason Angela says it’s critical to “realize that life is gorgeous chaos.”
