About This Episode
Tracey Nguyen is a marketing strategist, entrepreneur, and the founder of BOWO Creative, an agency dedicated to helping women-led businesses scale with heart and strategy.

Tracey’s journey started when she immigrated to Canada at 16, barely speaking English, and grew into a career that spanned corporate work, content creation, entrepreneurship, and eventually, building her own company. Along the way, she discovered what it truly means to find her voice and redefine success on her own terms.

In this episode, Tracey shares her story with raw honesty: from cultural pressures and early struggles to creating a business that reflects her values, motherhood, and her passion for supporting women.

What we talk about:
• Moving to Canada at 16 and learning to find her voice
• The turning point that shifted her away from corporate life
• Why building a business is really about values and alignment
• The truth about “women empowerment” as a movement vs. a marketing trend
• How motherhood reshaped her definition of success
• Why studying yourself matters more than studying others
• Practical advice for women starting a business or side hustle today

• Spot-reducing fat: myth or misunderstood
• Should you skip training certain muscles for “aesthetic” goals

Valeria came to Canada with no business background, no beauty experience, and no idea how things would turn out. She planned to pursue law, worked in legal offices, but quickly realized the path wasn’t hers. Instead, she took a risk.

Now she owns two successful beauty studios in Toronto with a team of 25 and a growing reputation in one of the most competitive markets in the country.

In this episode, she shares exactly how she started, what went wrong, and what it took to keep going without support, without connections, and without a plan B.

🎙 What we talk about:

• How to start a business in Canada without experience

• Building a team when you’ve never managed people before

• Creating services no one else in Toronto was offering

• How she handled slow months, fake reviews, and burnout

• Why not being a stylist worked in her favor

• Advice for immigrants starting something completely new

• How to build a business that grows by word of mouth

If you’re living in Canada and wondering whether you’re "ready" to build something of your own, this conversation is here to remind you that starting small is more than enough.
