Precious Jason: A skincare brand helping cancer survivors

Podcast

It's time for episode 24 of our podcast, the Small Business Sessions.

Diagnosed in 2012 with leukaemia, Precious Jason struggled to find natural products that were safe and nourishing enough to mend the damage done to her skin after treatment.

That gave her the idea for Etieno, a range of skincare products that make life easier for cancer patients.

Setting up a business while undergoing cancer treatment has unsurprisingly brought challenges. But it has also provided Precious with a great testing ground, canvassing feedback from everyone that crosses her path including medical consultants and those next to her in the waiting room.

Since 2005, I have been guiding executives, entrepreneurs, and individuals in developing their mental strength and successfully navigating change. The mental aspect is key for me, as it defines how we perceive and handle challenges. Professional communication forms the foundation of my work as a mentor and coach
Together with Daniela Lovric, I built a fully automated online academy in Switzerland. We are already working on a second academy focused on content creation. I convey successfully practiced knowledge from over 20 years of entrepreneurship, coaching, and mentoring.
My work focuses on empowering people to build resilience, recognize their potential, and unlock it. By combining deep knowledge with practical approaches, I aim to achieve lasting success. Whether in change management, career development, stress management, or entrepreneurial challenges, my goal is to support people on their journey and provide them with the tools they need for both personal and professional success. Every success starts in the mind. And that’s where I focus offering individual consulting, tailored coaching, and a clear emphasis on what matters most: inner strength. Websites from me and my work:
