THE NEW SELF-CARE RANGE Coco Jane Home and Spa was created by award-winning media entrepreneur, founder and CEO of Art of Superwoman Olwethu Leshabane as a tribute to her late maternal grandmother. As someone who valued self-care, she created a loving and welcoming home for all. We journey with Olwethu as she shares how the range celebrates some of her favourite items.
Glamour: What inspired your business idea?
Olwethu Leshabane: I have always been the mom that baths her babies. I enjoy guiltless self-care that involves skin-to-skin bonding. So I sought out products that would bring all these elements together but also look after the well-being of both me and my children. As well as being sustainable, of course.
G: What sets your products apart?
OL: All the products are non-irritable, not tested on animals and are free from hormone disruptors (chemicals that interfere with or disrupt the endocrine system), so they are safe for the whole family to use.
G: What was the biggest challenges you experienced along the way?
OL: I think with any vision you want to bring to life, funding has to be the biggest challenge.
G: The most rewarding part of your business?
