How do you Know When to Quit? From Salon Owner to Start Up: Eliza Trendiak is the QUEEN of Pivoting

A huge thank-you to the Georgia Straight for ranking the "Voted Least Likely" Podcast as the 3rd best podcast in the BOV 2023 Awards! I am so honoured to have this show recognized. Thank-you to everyone who voted, together we can make others feel less alone on their journey.

You know when you meet someone and immediately click? That's Eliza for me.

Eliza Trendiak has been an entrepreneur since before she even knew the meaning of the word. Whether operating a successful lemonade stand or charging the kids in the neighbourhood for gymnastics lessons (despite not being a gymnast), Eliza has always loved turning an idea into a tangible business.

She spent the first 15 years of her career in the hair styling industry, first as a stylist, and then as a salon owner building and selling her brand of 4 salon locations in Vancouver, Canada. Seeing other women succeed in business is a huge passion of Eliza’s and she loves to connect and encourage other business owners any time she can.

You will regularly find her making ridiculous videos on social media using humour to highlight her attempt at balancing motherhood and business ownership. Currently Eliza is working on her new brand called Lavoh, a line of sustainable and reusable makeup remover cloths which she will be launching in the Spring of 2024.

In this episode we cover how you know when it's time to pivot, the importance of community in business, and that we're both ready for any awards show.
