Tune in each week to hear from some of the top leaders at Younique. Hear about their lives before the business, their path to joining, and how they overcame obstacles in their life to become some of the strongest and most successful leaders in the industry.
Melanie “Mel” Hoehne is a positive force of nature who has, what author Carol S. Dweck would call, a growth mindset. Originally from Germany, Mel began her journey with Younique a few years after moving to Sydney, Australia, knowing Younique was eventually going to launch in her hometown. Mel had a career as a teacher, but after her two sons were born, her mindset changed, and she wanted to find something she could do to earn money but be able to continue spending time with her family. Having no idea where her Younique journey would lead her, Mel soldiered ahead, acted as a leader would, and proactively started to prepare for Younique's launch in Germany. Mel has grown a beautiful empire with passion, love and true commitment that began with a decision to better herself, her confidence, and have the freedom to spend time with those she loves most. Mel's growth mindset allowed her to know that failure doesn't define a person, but it can help one learn, refocus, and come out stronger. As Mel says, “Don't overthink, just take it and run.” Listen to the Younique Empower Hour to hear her (and others) empowering story.
