Introducing a new 6-Part series in collaboration with A Minute Marvel, an online platform for artists and creators that tells marvelous stories one minute at a time.

In the 4th chapter, my guest is Raya Khatib founder of Qamar Wa Shams, a holistic brand offering curated candles, aroma, and incense products infused with healing elements of smoke, fire, and medicinal essential oils. 

But Raya didn't always know she was going to be doing this as a career. After leaving business school to pursue acting and filmmaking - she believed she had finally figured out her purpose. Facing challenges with supply and demand in the local market, it was quickly clear that it was time to move on. 

She took a trip to Peru in pursuit of an expanded sense of spirituality and the following events would eventually lead to founding Qamar wa Shams.
