Meet Desa Unique

Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Desa Unique. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Desa, we’re thrilled to have you on our platform and we think there is so much folks can learn from you and your story. Something that matters deeply to us is living a life and leading a career filled with purpose and so let’s start by chatting about how you found your purpose.

Finding my purpose wasn’t a straightforward journey, especially since our purpose can evolve over time. For me, it began when I felt uninspired by my surroundings in Los Angeles. I decided to take a one-way flight to Bali, Indonesia, trusting my intuition without an exact plan for my return. I spent a month there, immersing myself in solitude, prayer, meditation, and trying new things every day. This time away from the distractions and opinions of others gave me the space to quiet my mind and peel back the layers of my true self. I was able to heal, reflect, and understand what I wanted to let go of and what truly mattered to me. The experience taught me that taking risks and stepping out of our comfort zones can lead to personal growth. We often underestimate the impact our environment and the people around us have on our well-being. Ultimately, the answers are within us; we just need to create the space to uncover them.

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?

I am an entrepreneur and creative focusing on the body sculpting industry, which is a series of non-invasive treatments to reduce stubborn fat, cellulite, and loose skin while sculpting the body. My role involves business consulting and education, helping women and men start and grow their body sculpting businesses through proper education and mentorship. What excites me most about my work is empowering others to succeed in a field that promotes self-confidence and well-being. In the next chapter, I plan to nurture my personal brand by expanding my creative pursuits in modeling, content creation, and creative direction. This transition excites me because it allows me to tap into my creative side after years of focusing on the logical aspects of building my brand. I’m eager to see what blossoms from this new venture and to share my creative journey with others.

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?

The three qualities that were most impactful in my journey are courage, resilience, and determination. Courage allowed me to take bold risks, like moving to Bali and starting new ventures. Resilience helped me to recover and grow from setbacks, while determination kept me focused and driven towards my goals.

For those early in their journey, my advice is to be clear on your vision and focus on building a firm foundation. This means knowing the direction you want to go, being financially smart, creating a solid plan, seeking help when needed, and thoroughly understanding your industry. The stronger your foundation, the better you can handle the ups and downs of your business journey and anything thrown at you. Also, KEEP GOING, I promise things get better!

Before we go, maybe you can tell us a bit about your parents and what you feel was the most impactful thing they did for you?

The most impactful thing my parents did for me was believing in me and giving me the space and freedom to pursue my dreams, no matter how “crazy” they sounded. My mom, in particular, always encouraged me to try new things, aim higher, and explore different perspectives. Her unwavering support and push to experience new ways of thinking helped shape my journey and for that, I am incredibly grateful.
