“For most of history, Anonymous was a woman.” ~ Virginia Woolf. On this International Women's Day, GlobalSpa recognizes and celebrates the women in the industry as we delve into their success mantra they follow, mistakes that have helped them grow, and of course, their WELLNESS philosophy.
Jaya Rao is the CEO & co-founder of Molekule, a San Francisco-based science and clean air company that has developed a fundamentally new approach to cleaning air.
What is your wellness philosophy?
Finding balance in everything I do is tremendously important. I also ensure that I have time to walk my dogs daily, usually in the morning. I do this with no phone or connectivity so that I can really process my thoughts and set my intentions for the day.
Your success mantra?
I have two. When something good happens, I choose to "Celebrate the moment". When something challenging happens, I live by the mantra, "This too shall pass."
A lesson you learned from making a mistake?
Empower your team, give them ownership, don’t own it all.
Any piece of advice for all the women out there?
Be confident in yourself, but don’t lose your humility.
What has been your biggest pride as a doyenne?
Innovating in a space that hasn’t seen innovation in decades.
