👣 Stepping into a world of wellness with Barefoot and Free! 🌟
Hey everyone! 👋 I’m Viara, the heart and sole behind this incredible journey. 🚀 The UAE has been my home since my toddler days, and as an adult navigating a career in private aviation. ✈️ Life threw some curveballs along the way – tendonitis, tricky knees, and an aching back, prompting a shift in perspective. And the adventures of motherhood steered my focus towards a path of health and happiness. 🌈
Three years ago, I joined a working mum’s community in Dubai, a transformative experience that added depth to my journey. Listening to fellow corporate and entrepreneurial mums’ tales, and immersing myself in a business strategy workshop with a coach/guide, became the catalyst for Barefoot and Free. 🤝💡
So, after bidding farewell to my business aviation career to care for my two little ones, a lightbulb moment occurred – why not bring the goodness of barefoot shoes to our region? 🥿✨ Barefoot shoes aren’t just footwear; they’re a feeling, a sensation of wellness that my family and I experienced firsthand. We’re all mindful of what we consume, but what about what we wear? That’s where the Barefoot and Free journey begins, a step towards mindful living and happy, healthy feet! 🦶 Join us on this exciting adventure!
