About Helena Triggas

ENFP, Empath, Social Storyteller. Behind the scenes making magic happen: Most of you know me for the communities and brands I\'ve built. Community and brand builder at heart; advising early stage startups, helping launch / rebrand companies, scaling social strategies, motivating / training teams and building meaningful community.True Story: It wasn\'t until after I graduated with my Marketing degree that I realized \"Marketing\" was a way to get people to buy things they didn\'t need-the thought honestly never crossed my mind. Ever since, I\'ve been on a mission to work with brands that actually bring value, hope, and community to the lives of women. It\'s what I live for. I\'ve found myself surrounded by women\'s health conversations and I never want to leave.I am a believer in organic community building (and doing the brand work!). I\'ve seen the impact trying to grow too quickly has and what happens when founders lose the heart of what got them (and their employees) out of bed in the morning. That is why I thrive in early stage companies and why I love growing teams and brands from the ground up. Most recently, I added product development to my skill set at EO Products. I jumped at the chance to drive the product roadmap years in advance bringing the intentions of the brand to the ingredients and scents and messaging from product conception.You can now find me using my superpowers for good consulting for brands and entrepreneurs. Former in house brands: EO, Everyone, Brandless, LevoFormer Clients: One Medical, EO, Glassdoor, Seeso, BritBox, New Story, Leila Janah, Sama, Laxmi, gr8nola, Levo.Things my best friends know about me:I could eat ramen, dumplings, or fried rice every day (but now I\'m gluten free for my thyroid, le sigh)Self-proclaimed Skincare Addict (but really people do come to me for my beauty routine)Obsessed with the wine + crime podcast (you can thank the pandemic)I worked front desk at SoulCycle and absolutely loved itCorgi videos bring me joy I\'m proud to be PolishI love my MomThis is me.
