About the author
Donya Fahmy is the CEO and Founder of Dropwise Essentials, a San Francisco Green business specializing in pure aromatherapy and organic plant-based personal care products that offer a safe and effective way to quickly relieve stress, increase vitality, improve confidence or manage your emotional state any time or place, without popping a pill.
Donya was originally inspired to create aromatherapy products by her avid interest in alternative medicine, and her personal first-hand experience using essential oils and herbs to successfully treat what doctors and traditional medicine couldn’t. Ever since then, Donya has been on a mission to educate millions of people about the simple yet amazing benefits of “flower power” --helping them to recognize plant products as a safe, effective, and environmentally sound alternative to pharmaceuticals, over-the-counter drugs, and mass-produced body care products.
Donya has studied aromatherapy with Carol Schiller, and renowned medical aromatherapy expert Dr. Daniel Penoel. With over 10 years of experience formulating aromatherapy and natural personal care products, she now uses her expertise to help pregnant women learn how to use essential oils to support a holistic pregnancy so they can experience a healthy transition into motherhood.
