From her early days in Tennessee to co-founding Huda Beauty, and launching her own fragrance brand, KAYALI, Mona Monica Kattan’s story is packed with wisdom for every entrepreneur. Here are our top 3 takeaways for those dreaming big: 🔑 Key Takeaways 1️⃣ Obsess over your mission According to Mona, obsession isn’t optional - it’s non-negotiable. If you’re not obsessed with your idea, you’re unlikely to push through the long days, tough setbacks, and constant changes that come with entrepreneurship. 2️⃣ Start now and experiment Mona stressed the danger of overthinking and waiting for things to be perfect before launch. She encourages taking action, experimenting, and learning from failures rather than letting hesitation hold you back. Movement leads to blessings! 3️⃣ Relationships are everything Building a brand, or any business, isn’t a solo journey. Mona’s background in PR taught her the value of networks, partnerships, and nurturing authentic connections. Whether recruiting talent or collaborating, invest in your people - they’re your greatest asset.
