Episode 98, Laura Slatkin, Founder and Executive Chairman, NEST Fragrances - Wall Street vs Scented Candles | WHERE BRAINS MEET BEAUTY‪®‬ WHERE BRAINS MEET BEAUTY

Back in 1992, Laura Slatkin and her husband Harry both had lucrative Wall Street careers on the rise. But their entrepreneurial spirits got the better of them, and that year they left the safety of a steady paycheck to open a home-fragrance shop. This eventually lead to Laura founding NEST Fragrances. In this episode, she recalls the challenges of creating what’s essentially today’s home fragrance industry, why she did it, and how she holds her high-octane life together.
