Fashion Gxd Magazine: How did the idea for your business come about? Burnout! I was at a time in my life that focusing on my self care was literally a mental health crisis. I started formulating products to use for my self care days, and the process of making the products became a form of therapy. I thought that if the products and experience of self care helped me, it could help others as well.
Fashion Gxd Magazine : How do you find people to bring into your organization that truly care about the organization the way you do? Energy and shared vision. Only positive vibes allowed.
Fashion Gxd Magazine : What three pieces of advice would you give to other children who want to become entrepreneurs? 1. Believe in yourself and what you want to do. Fear is a dream-killer, confidence is a dream builder. 2. Always stay true to who you are - despite naysayers, and negative influences 3. Your vision/business will give you, what you give to it. If you commit to it, it will grow and flourish in due time.
Fashion Gxd Magazine :If you had the chance to start your career over again, what would you do differently?
Be kinder to myself. I am my worst critic, and that pushed me to maintain a level of exception that was not sustainable. And I was the only one putting that pressure on me. I've learned that it's okay to pace yourself.
Fashion Gxd Magazine :What would you say are the top three skills needed to be a successful entrepreneur? Persistence, perseverance, and focus.
Fashion Gxd Magazine :What have been some of your failures, and what have you learned from them? The biggest failure which was the root of many others - is not embracing the idea of a "slow grow." When you believe in your brand so strongly, you want everybody to know about it and love it. In reality, that doesn't happen right away. You can lose focus and start grasping at what you think the trend is, instead of forging your own path.
Fashion Gxd Magazine :What motivates you? My sanity. Lol. Sugar Bomb Beauty Co is therapy for me. It gives me balance and is an outlet for me to be creative and just have fun! To be able to give the gift of self care, in any capacity, is motivation for me. My husband and children are also motivators. They inspire me. They are constant reminders of perspective, priority, and purpose.
