Summary from Entrepreneur Spotlight episode 2 interview:
From Healing Skin to Healing Mindsets: The Story of Teresa and Laser With Love
In the heart of Greengate, Bradford, where small businesses pulse with big dreams, we stepped into a warm, softly lit studio that smelt faintly of lavender and ambition. It’s the home of Laser With Love — a name that already whispers care, precision, and passion. But it isn’t just the scent of professionalism that lingers in the air. It’s the presence of Teresa — a woman who dared to dream beyond a job title, who turned a technical skill into a soulful service, and who is now shaping the future of beauty and self-confidence one laser treatment at a time.
We met Teresa on a quiet weekday morning. She greeted us with a calm confidence that only comes from doing what you were meant to do. But this wasn’t always her story.
The Leap from Employee to Entrepreneur
“Laser With Love was born two and a half years ago,” she told us, her voice steady but reflective. “I’d been working as a laser technician for over a year, but something inside me knew I wanted more.”
That “more” wasn’t just about income or independence. It was about impact.
As an employee, Teresa often felt like she was just another cog in the machine — a skilled pair of hands delivering treatments without truly connecting with clients. But Teresa believes in more. She believes that skin isn’t just a surface; it’s a story. And each person walking into her studio deserves to feel seen, heard, and deeply cared for.
So, she took the leap. With no fancy business degree, no blueprint, no big investors — just belief, guts, and the unshakeable desire to do things differently.
Building from Scratch: The Silent Hustle
Like many first-time entrepreneurs, Teresa’s beginning wasn’t glamorous. She faced the blank canvas of entrepreneurship — every decision, every mistake, every win was hers to own.
“There were days I sat in here with no clients, wondering if I’d made a mistake,” she confessed. “Marketing was the hardest part. I didn’t know where to begin.”
But what Teresa lacked in business know-how, she made up for with relentless consistency and human connection. She listened to her clients. She adjusted her services. She built her brand with care, not shortcuts. Every piece of feedback became a building block, every satisfied client a walking testimony.
Why Love Matters in Business
The name Laser With Love isn’t just branding. It’s her philosophy.
Teresa doesn’t just perform treatments — she creates experiences. She takes time to understand not just what the skin needs but what the person needs. Confidence. Privacy. Reassurance. A judgement-free space.
In a world obsessed with speed and filters, her approach is radically human. And her clients keep coming back — not just for the glow-up, but for the way she makes them feel seen.
Her Message to Aspiring Entrepreneurs: Just Start
If there’s one thing Teresa wants you to take away, it’s this: start scared, but start anyway.
“There’s never going to be a perfect time. You just have to go for it and figure it out as you go. But don’t stop. Be consistent. Your hard work adds up.”
Her advice is unfiltered and direct: learn your craft well, but don’t ignore the business side. Nurture your relationships. Be patient. Stay honest with yourself. And above all, believe that what you’re building matters.
What’s Next for Teresa?
Expansion is on the horizon. More treatments. More training. And a dream to mentor young women, especially from under-represented communities, who want to enter the beauty and aesthetics industry but don’t know where to start.
Her eyes lit up when she talked about it: “If I can be that person I never had — someone to guide and support —I’ll do it with love, the same way I do everything else.”
Your Story Matters Too
At Mindset to Market, we believe every entrepreneur has a story. Teresa’s is just one, raw, inspiring, and real. And maybe, just maybe, it’s the spark you needed to believe in your own.
Are you sitting on a dream? A business idea that keeps you up at night?
