Monthly highlight of our members: Zakia Velox.
The company was formed in 2020 following the Life Coaching that she delivered helping people to feel empowered whilst reaching their goals, whether it was for personal or business. The conception of the oils came as an additional support to her clients. The essential oils became popular as a product on its own which led to the succession of Le Jardin Paradis.
Since the new branding, Zakia has been creating and selling fantastic oils blends to help people with their wellbeing, in particular during the COVID 19 lockdown, where those in isolation found the oils to be of great comfort and enlightenment.
In 2021, The Peabody Trust, a housing association offered Zakia a micro grant to create 45 Wellbeing boxes containing several of her popular oil blends and lavender bags that will be distributed to their residents across the London Borough of Waltham Forest.
In addition to the success of Le Jardin Paradis, Zakia has over 15 years of experience in the banking and finance sector.
Zakia is available for bookings as a Coach and available for essential oil orders, and welcomes customised requests with her healing essential oil blends.
