Meet Shreya

Solo Entrepreneur, Online Marketing Coach, Army wife..

Trust your intuition and success will follow

I am a proud "multipotentialite" with many different pursuits and creative interests.


I run a successful business – Burst of Happyness, where I formulate and design vegan, chemical-free, handmade bath & body goodies.

 

I am a solo entrepreneur, married to the olive greens,  so always on the move; yet I have grown my venture from a kitchen startup to a seven figure business.

​

I know the ups and downs of being a womenpreneur in India and I want to help you and support you through those times - personal and professional.

My Simple World

I met my husband, Yogesh when I was 19 and we’ve been together ever since!  Now, I live the life of an army wife, travel, study, create new content, manage my small business, and goof around with my super geeky husband!

I am a momma to 2 boxer dogs - Juno & Shrek.

​

I shift homes every two years (sometimes sooner) but call Pune my home! I am currently based in Delhi.

My Biz Journey

My biz journey began in 2010 when I became hyper on being unable to find any truly natural products to suit my sensitive skin. All I could see was loads of pretentious stuff from FMCG conglomerates and a few bits from a sadly disorganised cottage industry. Realising that there must be many out there resigned to make-do with pseudo “natural” products, I refused a high-paying corporate job and instead, rolled up my sleeves and got down to learning all that there was to soap-making. From this began Burst of Happyness, with its line of handmade goodies - natural, vegan and free of preservatives which now operates from a workshop in Pune. BOH has got featured on numerous portals like YourStory, NatGeo Traveller, Chaipaani, Indian Express etc.

​

In the past, I have also run a wholesale business for natural ingredients for skincare, provided white labelling manufacturing, worked temporarily with Oriflame and Tupperware - only to realize that it wasn't my calling. But it helped me learn some great sales skills which I have applied to BOH

Intellection

Futuristic

Input

Ideation

Adaptability

​

​

I love to learn and chew on it for hours. I get bored easily so I need to keep myself stimulated. Thinking of new ideas and strategies energizes me. I find it difficult to work in a structured and predictable environment as I need variety - I really enjoy the chaos of being a solo entrepreneur. I also have the ability to encourage others to reflect and use their full intellectual capital. This makes me an ideal contributor in entrepreneurial and start-up situations.
