Description of Business:
“Pillow Angst”…the quest for the perfect pillow seems to be a common sentiment we hear from happy clients who have ended up buying enVy. For me, that quest started in my 30’s when I started to feel the bad effects of major corrective back surgery for scoliosis 15 years earlier. Oh….. And the fact I carried 3 babies to full term despite the advice from those who knew better….I’m a slow learner. Kim is the co-creator of enVyTM and, quite honestly, the “brains” who started this whole thing. Her impressive career includes Critical Care as a Nurse Administrator and as a Botox Medical Consultant with Allergan Canada. Later, as a co-founder of a company geared to educate and train Doctors and Nurses in the fine art of Aesthetic Training, she noticed that “sleep lines” were an avoidable effect of poor sleeping habits…mainly side sleeping. She wants me to mention here that she felt guilty about taking money from people who came to her to repair the sleep lines that were avoidable. I am happy to report that I wasn’t one of these people… however being strapped into a supine position to avoid sleep lines may not appeal to most.
Description of You:
Running into each other was truly karma. Figuratively and factually....I recall our meeting each other was hard against the boards on the ice with like-minded Hockey playing Moms. Within a short time, we brought our separate quests together to design an anti-aging pillow AND an ergonomically pillow. The mission: How does one have amazing quality restful sleep on their back OR side in perfect spinal supportive alignment without causing the smashing of their faces into the pillow causing those “sleep lines” that we wake up to every morning? From an idea over a glass of wine post hockey game, to 2.5 years of research and development, to finally enVy… the luxurious necessity plastic surgeons, dermatologists, sleep specialists, chiropractors and physiotherapist are happily sleeping with and waking up feeling great AND looking fantastic : ) Kim and I still play hockey….but she’s on my team now. This is better for my back.
