I love green and eco-friendly products. I love to hear when they are created and marketed by women-entrepreneurs.Celebrate Woman is always on the lookout of women who dare to live their dreams. And share their experiences and tips with the others who are on their way to live their dreams.

Celebrate Woman (CW) What would you tell any woman who would like to start her entrepreneurial life in New 2012 Year?
(Severine) Be passionate about your products or services… Do not start a business because someone told you it is a good idea! At the end of the day, you will be the only ambassador for your business and you will need to do a LOT of convincing and there will be a lot of LONG days. Work and play will intermingle all the time: I create products when I entertain friends, I visit artists working with glass when I am on vacation… I never really stop because I love the products we make!

I am also a cancer survivor so I have learned how to re-prioritize healthy habits: I have a dog and we go on at least one long walk once a day rain or shine.
Celebrate Woman (CW) Anything you would like to add, please do.
(Severine) Someone told me that if you always postpone grabbing your chance, then less opportunity will come your way. In some odd ways the statement stands true: the most chance you take, the more chance you’ll have…
