Meet Atul Bhatara

We recently connected with Atul Bhatara and have shared our conversation below.

Atul, so great to have you with us and we want to jump right into a really important question. In recent years, it’s become so clear that we’re living through a time where so many folks are lacking self-confidence and self-esteem. So, we’d love to hear about your journey and how you developed your self-confidence and self-esteem.

I would like to start off with a quote.
I would like to say what one of my mentors, Les Brown, says, “It's not what happens
to you; it's how you deal with it.” I was born premature with cerebral palsy. And
because of the condition, I had to develop my willpower and resilience to want to do
everything from physical therapy to going to school to graduating from college.
It came to me very early, the sense of purpose and being able to do things on my
own. Let's call it with my own mental strength came to me very early because of
circumstance.
I just developed confidence by knowing I was blessed and special. I was capable of
dealing with situations, at least through mental strength.
And I just didn't take any of the circumstances as real. I always thought that you
could push through and push the line. I took a lot of time to learn and to build on my
self-confidence with mentors and good teachers. My mom was very supportive, and
I kind of took that and embodied it within myself.
That's why it's very important to have support from your environment as a young
person or child.

Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?

I consider myself an author, speaker, and serial entrepreneur.
The Atul Skincare brand identity is based on the culture. It’s based on the Indian
science of Ayurveda. And the genesis of the product started in my grandmother’s
kitchen in New Delhi, India.
And there is also a celebration during an Indian wedding called the Haldi ceremony.
Haldi is the Hindi word for turmeric.
They put that on the bride and the groom. At Atul Skincare, we try to be natural and
good for the skin. This goes back to my family and hundreds of thousands of years
in my culture. I’m trying to put forth a natural product that would be good for the
skin.
The skin is the largest organ in the body. We’re ingesting so many chemicals and
things so, we try to be as natural as possible. And then the other major thing is the

blue light, liquid blue light blocker protection. It is so important these days because
we are dealing with these frequencies and the blue light from the screens.

Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?

I actually have five. They're my five P's. And they are passion, persistence,
patience, prayer, and purpose.

Alright so to wrap up, who deserves credit for helping you overcome challenges or build some of the essential skills you’ve needed?

The most important person in my life in that way was my mother.
I had a very important tutor in high school and all the way through college who was
a neighbor. And the most recent person happens to be my girlfriend and future
fiancé and wife, Mona.
Also, don’t let someone’s opinion of you become your reality. Being born with a
disability, people just look at the outside facade and they assume what your
capability is, right?
We only have two major choices in life. One is to accept things and conditions the
way they are. Or take responsibility to change.
