We had the good fortune of connecting with Cedric Muse and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Cedric, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
The seed of the idea for opening a spa and lounge for men, a one-stop shop catering specifically to their needs, was planted in my mind by observing a significant gap in the market. In today’s fast-paced world, men are increasingly seeking opportunities to unwind, relax, and take care of their physical and mental well-being. This concept is driven by the belief that men deserve a dedicated haven to indulge in various therapeutic treatments, enjoy luxurious amenities, socialize with like-minded individuals, and rejuvenate their bodies and souls. By offering a carefully curated range of services tailored to men’s unique needs, my aim is to create an oasis where they can experience the perfect balance between relaxation, grooming, and social interaction, all in one extraordinary setting

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
Taking a leap of faith from being an employee to becoming an entrepreneur was a transformative journey that stemmed from a burning desire for independence, growth, and the pursuit of my passions. Despite the comfort and security of a steady job, I yearned for the opportunity to shape my own destiny and build something meaningful from the ground up. It required immense courage to break away from the familiar and embrace the uncertainties of entrepreneurship. However, armed with a clear vision, unwavering determination, and a willingness to learn from both successes and failures, I propelled myself forward. With every step, I embraced the challenges as opportunities for personal and professional development, knowing that the rewards of creating something truly my own far outweighed the risks. Through hard work, perseverance, and an unwavering belief in my abilities, I embraced the unknown, confident that this leap of faith would be the catalyst for a fulfilling and purpose-driven life as an entrepreneur.
