The Impact
Community Building & Inspiration
“ONSIDE has been an important part of my journey as I build Agn Beauty. While starting my business, I was learning how to navigate the Canadian market, connect with other women entrepreneurs, and understand the resources available to me. Participating in ONSIDE events, like Radiant Voices, gave me a chance to see how other women succeed in their businesses and share their experiences.
These events created a space where I felt inspired and supported. In many entrepreneurial settings in Nova Scotia, I didn’t always see women who shared my perspective as a newcomer, and that sometimes made it harder to engage. At ONSIDE events, I felt included, understood, and encouraged to connect, learn, and exchange ideas without hesitation.
This sense of community reinforced that entrepreneurship is not just about products or plans—it’s about relationships, shared knowledge, and having the support to grow confidently.”
