From My Father’s Life to the Birth of a Brand: The Story of MiMi
The Origin of My Journey:
My father’s passing led me to redefine the meaning of “health,” placing greater emphasis on “wellness.” I came to believe that when people are healthy, they naturally begin to radiate beauty.
My father was a man who loved food. He was passionate, lively, and full of zest. For him, food was life’s greatest joy—whether it was street snacks or gourmet meals, he would always say, “Life is meant to be enjoyed, and food is a big part of that joy.”
However, he also had some less-than-healthy habits. He smoked, drank, and rarely kept a regular eating schedule. As a family, we often urged him to take better care of himself, but he’d always laugh it off, saying, “A little indulgence is what makes life fun.”
Then, one day, our world came crashing down. The doctor told us he had cancer. At that moment, it felt like the ground beneath us had disappeared.
During his final days, as we accompanied him through treatments, we came to deeply understand the pain and suffering that cancer brings. We weren’t doctors or nurses, so there was little we could do except be by his side, trying to ease his pain and make him as comfortable as possible.
When he finally left us, the sadness was overwhelming. But his passing wasn’t just a source of grief for me—it was a wake-up call. It was a reminder that we cannot wait until it’s too late to prioritize our health.
A Gentle Path to Wellness
After my father’s passing, I began paying closer attention to the lifestyle choices of myself and my family. Through this process, I realized that “wellness” and “beauty” aren’t luxuries—they’re acts of kindness toward ourselves. They represent a gentle and mindful approach to life.
I started learning how to create natural skincare products, researching the benefits of botanical essential oils, and exploring the connection between our physical and emotional well-being.
For instance, my mother had long suffered from poor sleep, often waking multiple times during the night. I began giving her facial and head massages using traditional techniques. Each time, she would fall asleep peacefully during the process. Over time, not only did her sleep quality improve, but her complexion brightened, and her facial contours became more defined. It wasn’t just about health—it was about beauty, too!
Step by step, I delved deeper into this journey. I studied, practiced, and eventually earned professional certifications. Through it all, I held onto one belief: sincerity and care are the best foundations for any endeavor.
從父親的生平到品牌誕生：米米的品牌故事
創業的起源：爸爸的離去，讓我開始重新定義「健康」, 更注重「養生」, 相信人有了健康便會慢慢變得「美麗」起來
我的爸爸是一個很喜歡美食的人，他熱情、豪爽。他一生最愛的就是美食 —— 無論是街邊小吃還是高級料理，他總說：「人生就是要吃得開心。」但他也有一些不太健康的習慣，像是抽煙、喝酒、食無定時。身為家人，我們總是勸他注意身體，他卻總笑著說：「人總要有點享受嘛。」
直到有一天，醫生告訴我們他得了癌症。那一刻，我們的心都往下沉了。
在他癌症最後的日子裡, 我們陪伴他治療，是多麼深刻地面對「癌症的痛苦」。我們不是醫生，也不是護士，所以我們許多事情都不能作, 只能盡量給他一點陪伴和讓爸爸少痛一點、舒服一點。
爸爸最後還是離開了。他的離開對我來說，不只是悲傷，更像是一種提醒：我們不能等到失去了，才開始重視健康。
我開始更加關注自己和家人的生活方式，並從中發現，原來「養生」和「美麗」並不是奢侈的事，而是一種對生活的溫柔態度。我開始學習調製天然護膚品、研究植物精油的功效、了解身心平衡的關係。媽媽長期睡眠質素很差, 常常一晚多次醒來, 每次我為她作出頭部及臉部撥筋時, 她總會在過程中安然睡著了。媽媽不只睡眠質素好了, 她的臉色也得到了改善, 臉部輪廓也得到提升了。不只達到了養生的效果, 更是可以變美的呢!
就這樣，一步一步，我走上了這條路。我一邊學習一邊考取相關的專業證書，我相信，真誠與用心，是最好的開始。
我想把這份初心變成一生的事業，讓更多人在還沒生病之前，就學會如何照顧自己，如何選擇對身體友善的產品，如何用最純粹的方式，讓生活回到最自然、最健康的樣子。
這不只是一份工作，而是一份承諾 —— 給爸爸，也給每個曾因健康而痛過的人。
