An interview with Natalie Tessler
Founder and owner of Spa Space, Chicago
As a child, Natalie was always dreaming up business ideas, and as an adult she always knew she would start one up eventually. She just wasn't sure what kind of business she wanted. So, she did some soul searching to find out what she was really good at outside of her work as an attorney. Knowing she wanted to be in customer service and interact with different people daily, she decided to combine the clinical, professional feel of a dermatologist's office with the calming feel of a spa and created Spa Space. "Being an entrepreneur is not glamorous; it's getting your hands dirty and being willing to do anything to see the business succeed."
