Story of Bringing holistic wellness without the side effects : Loveena Sirohi, Co-founder & director, India Hemp Organics
From Personal Struggle to Entrepreneurial Success
In 2017, at the age of 20, Loveena Sirohi started India Hemp Organics after having a horrific accident that confined her to bed. She was given opioid medicine for her pain by doctors but it had many mental and physical side effects. Considering her situation, her husband and now co-founder moved to seek other alternatives that could serve to ease the pain without the adverse reaction.
“They looked at case studies on how cannabis is being used in other countries to help many patients fight various mental and physical health issues.”.
Harnessing the Power of Hemp
They experimented with different cannabis oils that proved to be helpful for the condition, she was suffering from and saw the benefits firsthand. Working closely with doctors, They developed the range of oils to counter common health problems prevalent today in India, such as pain, anxiety, stress, insomnia, arthritis, and many more,” asserts the Bengaluru entrepreneur.
Rising Star in the Wellness Industry
India Hemp Organics has quickly gained popularity, with products like CannaBliss Skincare Oil, Hemp Seed Oil, CannaBliss Arthritis Relief Oil, and CannaBliss Stress Buster Oil becoming bestsellers. Sirohi’s entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to holistic wellness have positioned her as a leading figure in the industry.
Sirohi, 22, says many young people have started their own business ventures in the last few years and that the business ventures are becoming too big and successful. “There is much support and guidance given to people who want to start a business, irrespective of their age. This is the age when most important skills that would take one to great heights must be developed,” she adds.
According to Sirohi, the startup culture instills an ownership mindset that is absent in MNCs. In the current ecosystem, startups also pay as well as MNCs, if not better. Sirohi says that the present policies are good for start-ups and India wants to help them grow. But she suggests that the tax on start-ups should be lower so that more businesses can start and there can be more money available from within India.
