Who better to ask about how to find true happiness while balancing the demands of a career and the need for personal time than British beauty entrepreneur, Jo Malone CBE ? Now a household name thanks to the global success of her first fragrance company Jo Malone London, which she sold to Estee Lauder in 1999, the perfumer and now founder of Jo Loves , a beautiful scent, bath, body and and candle collection, emphasises the importance of living in the moment and working with passion rather than obligation. “My work-life balance is more important to me now,” she explains to HELLO! “I work because I enjoy it. I am very privileged to be in this position, but I work because I just couldn’t give it up; it is a part of me and I love it,” she shares.
Jo has experienced her own fair share of challenges, but she insists that to overcome them, we must find our own unique path. “Always find your own way and think differently,” she explains. “I will always try to think of three solutions.
When you have those, I think then that I am not powerless,” she explains. This entrepreneurial mindset plays a crucial role in Jo’s happiness, as she’s unafraid to tackle setbacks with creativity and determination. “I want to always be known for living my life with passion and creativity,” she explains.
“Everything I do in my life is about discovering how to encourage moments of creativity and joy,” she says. ALSO READ: Why dressing up happy sets me up for success In the last.
