NEW YORK, NY, September 05, 2019 /Neptune100/ — People like Jolana Nika are hard to come by. When she walks in a room, her energy is simply contagious.
The immigrant powerhouse and serial entrepreneur, moved to the United States early on in her life, and since then, she has been taking the world by storm.
From the beginning, Jolana was clear on her goals and on where she wanted to go. Growing up in Sweden, she always felt like the black sheep because of her unconventional path and strict parents.
“I never felt like I belonged in Sweden, I always wanted something bigger for myself. I wanted to be independent. I was always doing everything on my own. It was very hard growing up, but I am a fighter, a manifestor, a go-getter. My background shaped me, and it made me stronger,” she shares.
Jolana always knew she wanted to be her own boss. Having never worked for anyone, it was natural for her to start her own business, and be fully independent.
“I knew I couldn’t have a boss tell me what to do. I hate being told what to do. I had a talk with a trainer that encouraged me to start my own company. I did everything on my own,” Jolana says.
Jolana recently launched her own brand of athleisure clothing, which includes street style and workout clothes. The brand, Lazy Los Angeles, provides customers with stylish outfits that can be dressed up, or down, depending on one’s needs. The clothing brand has prioritized quality over quantity, striving to give the very best to her clients.
“Lazy Los Angeles represents the athleisure attire look that everyone in LA loves to dress, while also being dreamy, chic and fashionable at the same time,” Jolana describes.
One of the biggest challenges Jolana faced when she was starting out was not knowing the ins and outs of the clothing industry.
“When you are creating a brand, you need a lot of money, structure, connections, and time. It takes so much time to create a brand, it definitely is not something you can just do in three months. You really have to know that this is what you want to do with your life and give it your all,” she states.
Jolana is also a private personal trainer and a fitness guru. In order to keep up with her current lifestyle, she has to follow a strict routine that helps her feel her very best, and in turn give that same energy to everything she does.
In fact, her success as a fitness guru has been rapidly on the rise, making Jolana a go to trainer for Hollywood’s A-List Celebrities.
Jolana is currently working on a YouTube channel that will specifically target those with busy lifestyles. The channel will launch in September and will provide viewers with content centered around food and fitness for everyone interested in learning easy recipes and workout routines. She anticipates the channel will be successful, as it provides special content that almost anyone could benefit from.
Success to Jolana goes a lot further than just monetary gains.
“Success to me does not mean money. Success is being able to walk out my door in the morning, being able to workout, being able to eat healthy foods. Thinking that one day I could wake up and not be able to move my body the way I want to terrifies me. Being sick is something completely out of our control, which is why is important to stay healthy,” Jolana states.
Finally, Jolana provides entrepreneurs with the perfect example of what you can achieve by not giving up. If you persevere, all your goals will be within your reach.
