In today’s fast-paced world of entrepreneurship, it’s rare to find a leader who blends passion, wisdom, and innovation as seamlessly as Diana Richardson. With a powerful presence in the beauty, wellness, and business mentoring industries, she has spent the past 33 years empowering others to believe in themselves, take action, and succeed on their own terms. The passionate female leader is more than a mentor — she’s a trailblazer, guiding others to step into their purpose, lead with intention, and shine from the inside out. In a world full of noise, Diana is the calm voice of clarity, reminding us that success is not just about reaching the top, but glowing every step of the way.
She is the force behind The Glowgetter Mentor, a global mentoring platform that’s inspiring executives, entrepreneurs, and changemakers across the world.
A Lifelong Journey of Growth and Learning
Diana’s entrepreneurial spark lit up over three decades ago. But her professional roots in the beauty and wellbeing industry span 25 years. From early on, she knew that growth doesn’t just happen — it’s something you commit to, every single day. Her belief is simple but powerful: K.E.Y = Keep Educating Yourself.
This philosophy has guided every step of her incredible career. The trailblazer leader first studied Communications and Business at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). But her journey didn’t stop there. She dove deep into the wellness space with a range of qualifications, continually investing hundreds of hours each year into professional development.
As her career evolved, so did her academic journey. Diana graduated with a First Class from Oxford University’s Saïd Business School, completing the Strategic Innovation Programme. She then earned a Distinction in Lifestyle Medicine Coaching from Harvard Medical School, reflecting her dedication to holistic success — mind, body, and business.
In recognition of her global contributions to entrepreneurship, the passionate leader was nominated for an Honorary Doctorate by Azteca University. And just recently, she added another milestone — Diana is now beginning a new academic adventure at Harvard Business School.

Meet the A-Team: Culture Built on Clarity, Courage, and Celebration
Behind every great leader is a great team — and Diana’s A-Team is no exception. The culture she’s built is driven by three essential values: Autonomy, Accountability, and Action.
- Autonomy: Diana empowers her team to lead with independence. Every team member is encouraged to bring their own brilliance to the table and take bold, decisive action.
- Accountability: During regular meetings, the team maps out their weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annual goals. Each person takes full ownership of their role, driving a sense of purpose and pride.
- Action: With a “scoreboard mentality,” the A-Team celebrates wins, reflects on lessons, and adapts fast. This culture of reflection and celebration keeps the team agile and aligned.
It’s a workplace that feels more like a mission — one where every team member grows, glows, and contributes with heart.
Leading with Heart: Diana’s Leadership Style and Success Mantra
When asked about her leadership style, Diana returns to her core value: Autonomy. She believes in leading by example while giving her team the trust and space to thrive. She encourages her clients and her team alike to stop seeking external validation and start tapping into their own unique strengths. Her leadership style is inclusive, intuitive, and inspiring — empowering others to rise with confidence. And her success mantra? “You are your own secret sauce,” says Diana.
Looking Ahead: Global Impact in 2025 and Beyond
With big plans on the horizon, Diana is just getting started. In 2025 and 2026, The Glowgetter Mentor will take the global stage with events planned in the Middle East, the UK, North America, and India. Diana’s second book is also set to release this year — promising more insight and inspiration for entrepreneurs everywhere. The vision is clear: expand the Glowgetter community, amplify global impact, and help more people design a life and business they’re proud of.
Market Insights: Entrepreneurship Is Evolving
The entrepreneurial landscape is shifting — and Diana sees the beauty in it. According to data from FreshBooks:
- 96% of self-employed professionals have no interest in going back to a traditional 9-to-5 job
- 61% say they’d be proud of their achievements if their career ended today
- 88% focus on smaller, more integrated services
Entrepreneurship isn’t just a trend — it’s a movement. And Diana’s work helps business owners show up with clarity, confidence, and purpose in a fast-changing world. “There’s an abundance of opportunity. Our job is to help people rise above self-doubt and design their own destiny,” states Diana.
