Hi guys. Welcome back to your energy. This is your host, Ecta. And I have a fabulous guest today. This is a brand new line. And I am absolutely obsessed with it. So without further ado, I want to introduce you guys to the founder of Community 66 DIA Foley. Welcome to the show. DIA. I'm so honored to host you.

Oh, thank you so much. I'm honored to be on. It's such a pleasure to meet with you and just also want to say congratulations being recognized with a C E W U S as the podcast authority and skincare. That means a lot. So hats off.

Thank you so much. That's so kind of you to say that. And yeah, I'm still pinching myself. I don't believe they gave us the title, but you know, I'm very grateful and I'm very excited because it's founders like yourself that, you know, have given us the opportunity to even, you know, to exist. So thank you.

I want to get started though, DIA. I want to get started about you and your whole background and your career journey and everything that led to Community 66 if you could walk us down memory lane.

Yeah, it was going to say, do we, how long do we have?

I mean, well, I've been in the industry for a super long time. Anybody that has ever touched on beauty, whatever that means, you know, it's very addictive business.

I started off as a little hustler kid peddling my mom's Ava and switching it off and trading it for treats at school if you must know the truth.

So it's been a long journey. I'm just loving it and I just got so caught up in it and so excited.

I've been able to work with some really great brands, everything from, you know, some of the bigger guys like L'Oreal kind of gave me my, my start and my roots all the way up to most recently with the in key list with a great group of people there.

So I was trained as a makeup artist and started working at, I'm in Canada just to give some clarity and we used to have a department store called Items and I used to be a cosmetic manager there and just kind of took off from there and, you know, a mom who needed, you know, a part time job that just kind of evolved.

I kind of evolved into a bigger job and, you know, set my sights on training and from there got an opportunity to work with a lot of great brands, started working in the entrepreneurial space, which I love.

As we move so quickly with smaller brands, we can develop a lot faster, we're not as afraid to try new things and, and so I got to know some really wonderful people. I got to travel extensively.

I said my last tender was with the in key list developing, you know, with them the first 15 products.

So it's been, it's been an incredible journey. I've been very lucky. I also have the immense pleasure of working with an incredibly bright light by the name of Brandon true acts.

We worked together on a luxury brand in Canada and we traveled all over working with chemists and working with a lot of really smart people that I was able to absorb a lot of the knowledge.

Yeah, I finally started now, you know, developing a brand that, you know, of my own with all my learnings. So it's been, it's been, it truly has been a long road, but wow.
