Hello!
My name is Sota and I was living in Nashville and am now in Saint Paul, MN with my husband and 12 year old yellow lab, Randall! skin by sota started as just a social media “skinstagram” in 2017 to educate clients on skincare and share product favorites and knowledge.
In 2020 during the pandemic, I opened my studio as a way to nurture my own dreams of being my own independent spa owner. I launched in Minneapolis and after 1.5 years, moved to Nashville and reopened there for 3 amazing years thereafter.
Why I started:
To build something on my own and create my own dreamy but effective protocols and treatments for my guests.
What I love about being a business owner:
I love the flexibility and creativity I get to have as an independent business owner.
What type of impact do you hope to have on those you meet and/or who purchase your products?
I hope to give them an incredibly straightforward and results driven experience, walking away with more knowledge about how to improve their skincare or wellness journey.
Who or what inspires you?
The incredibly strong support system in my life inspire me everyday. I value their motivating encouragement and ability to boost my confidence when I need it!
What is your favorite piece of advice you've ever received or favorite quote?
"You are calm, you are confident, you are competent, you are caring." I like to remind myself of these four C's as my anchor. It gives me strength to conquer anything.
What does BEAUTY mean to you?
Beauty means self-care and self-love. It is nurturing yourself from the inside out to be the best version.
What advice would you give your past self just starting your business?
I would tell her about the four C's! And to BE YOURSELF, the people meant for you will find you.
