Learn from our community entrepreneurs! In this interview, Ann Biese shares the story of building and growingHealing Hearts Yoga Therapy, located in Meredith , New Hampshire , United States
Hi! Tell us about your business and what problem are you solving?
I am a trauma-informed yoga therapist that specializes in working with children and teens that have health-related concerns or special needs. My practice focuses on emotional and physical support. I serve children with childhood cancer through various integrative yoga therapies, meditation, reiki, and EFT-Tapping. My practice serves a nonprofit organization Lucy's Love Bus, at Boston-based area hospitals weekly.
What's your one biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
In 2018 I began working with children in pediatric cancer through the nonprofit Lucy's Love Bus, and also that same year became a children's author as well. It has been quite an inspiring journey.
What’s your one biggest challenge you face and how do you overcome it?
I think specifically the emotional part of seeing the families I work with struggle emotionally while their child is in treatment for cancer.
To anyone looking to start or grow a business today, what three tips would you give them?
The saying "Do what you love, and you will never work a day in your life, is so true!" Not that you won't have stress because you will, but you will always go to work with a sense of purpose and passion.
