This week's episode features Katrina Bell, founder of The Copper Bell. Katrina is creating one funny label at a time as she powers through as an ‘accidental’ business owner.  Katrina followed the traditional route of post secondary, landing different jobs as she evolved through the corporate world and starting her family.  Then the pandemic hit and she became a statistic along with many others by losing her job.


Luckily and really unknowingly, Katrina already had a back up plan – making candles with amazing smells and very humorous labels.  This reflects Katrina’s personality to a T.  She is funny, doesn’t take herself or life too seriously and has a sense for scents!


In April of 2020 she said – ‘well let’s give this candle thing a go and see what happens.’  Prior to this her candles were being made for friends, family and herself as she found she was sensitive to scents and often would get headaches from them.  She continually receives reviews, compliments and comments about how scent-sensitive people can enjoy candles again thanks to The Copper Bell.
