Q: Tell us about yourself and Tanzanite Beauty?

Hi, I'm Natasha and currently run my own small business called Tanzanite Beauty. I started my beauty career over 20 years ago back in my home country of Australia.

During the past 20 years I've worked at some of the worlds leading health retreats, hotel spas, on board cruise ship and some smaller boutique salons. The highlight of my career was working at Crown Casino, Melbourne where I was a therapist to the rich, famous & everyone in between. 

I now run my own small contracting business that I started about six years ago. I contract out to local Glamping spots and boutique accommodation sites offering relaxation massages for the guests. I also offer home visits for clients to enjoy a relaxtion massage in the comfort of their own home.

Q: What's your favourite and least favourite thing about being a small business owner?

My favourite thing about being a small business owner is the flexibility it allows around my young family. My least favourite is that I miss working with colleagues and being part of a team. 

Q: What's the best piece of advice you've received, and who gave you that advice?

My best piece of advice is from my 5 year old son. 

"Mum, it will be ok"

Just a little reminder not to sweat the small stuff.

Q: What do you like to do outside of work?

When I'm not working, I'm busy being Mum to Arley (5) and Elsie (2) and spending time with my little family. I also love to sit down with a good novel and enjoy a good wine with friends.
