Heart of Herbs Alumni, Cindy Collins, never imagined her kitchen experiments would transform into a multi-million dollar herbal business serving over 70,000 customers worldwide. Yet that's exactly what happened with Euphoric Herbals, now operating two beautiful brick-and-mortar apothecaries and shipping to 61 countries.
As a certified herbalist, former lactation counselor, and birth doula, Cindy brought a unique perspective to product development. Her culinary background proved surprisingly valuable, enabling her to approach herbal formulations in a similar manner to recipes. "I thought about herbal formulations as recipes, and I was like, oh, I could totally make that," she explained. This approach demystifies herbalism, showing how transferable skills can lead to success in unexpected ways.
What stands out in Cindy's journey is her thoughtful approach to physical spaces. Rejecting the dark, cluttered "head shop" aesthetic common in many herb stores, she designed bright, accessible apothecaries that customers of all mobility levels could comfortably explore. This deliberate design philosophy has paid off—some customers drive four hours to visit her locations. The stores serve as "beta test labs" where she gathers invaluable feedback directly from customers, constantly refining her offerings.
Beyond selling products, Cindy has expanded into education, offering workshops on starting apothecary businesses and scaling handmade products. Her $97 workshop shares insights from opening two locations, covering everything from location scouting to permits and launch timelines. For those hesitant to begin without perfection, her advice is refreshingly practical: "Put your ugly out there and do it and know it's going to improve." This permission to start imperfectly might be the most valuable lesson for aspiring herbalists and entrepreneurs who feel stuck waiting for ideal conditions.
