Patrice Mousseau is building an Indigenous business ecosystem, one entrepreneur at a time – The Globe and Mail
October 16, 2025
As the founder and CEO of Satya Organic, Patrice Mousseau has built one of Canada’s most successful Indigenous-owned skincare brands — and she’s determined not to be the last.
Satya is a certified B Corp — which means it is a for-profit company that meets rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency, as certified by the non-profit B Lab — best known for its clean, plant-based formula, launched in 2014 out of its founder’s home kitchen. Ms. Mousseau, then a single mother and journalist, was looking for a solution to her infant daughter’s painful eczema. It led her to develop her own solution: a natural balm that worked better than anything she could find on the shelf.
“I never would have done it without her,” she says.
