Today we’d like to introduce you to Shante Wilson.
Hi Shante, so excited to have you on the platform. So, before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
I wanted to create a space for women and men of all walks of life to feel and look beautiful! We as women, as well as men, need that extra pick me up, and that pampering experience! I wanted them to have all the luxury looks and feels, just without the costs! We as women can look and feel beautiful without breaking the bank! I also thought about men they need to feel good in their skin as well, and also get pampered! I also wanted to create natural products that are not harmful to us as humans, and will not harm the animals. Our products are all-natural and vegan! Our products also target specific concerns and make you feel and smell beautiful! We offer body butter, body scrubs, lip gloss, lipstick, skincare, and Mink lashes! So again, you can have all the luxury looks and feels, just without the costs!
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall, and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It has not been a smooth road so far. As with anything, it takes time to build. You must have inventory on hand, patience, great work ethic, determination, and dedication! Some of my struggles were that I wanted to see my business take off, I wanted to have a ton of sales in the beginning, and would get discouraged if I made none. Some days I would get 2, other days 5, and some days none, but slow and steady wins the race. Nothing happens overnight. If you build it, they will come!
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I’m currently a tax preparer. I assist people in preparing taxes every year. I am known to help others by motivating them to feel their best, and encouraging them that they can do anything they put their minds to. Also helps them to understand that we all have a purpose in life and that in this life, everyone can’t travel the same road we travel. I am most proud of being that light for some at the end of the tunnel, encouraging them to keep going and don’t stop! We all at some point will go through things in life. It’s not how you go through, it’s how you come out! Come out smelling like a rose!
Risk-taking is a topic that people have widely differing views on – we’d love to hear your thoughts.
I would say that I’m not so much of a risk-taker, but I do believe that sometimes it’s needed! You just have to go in believing that you can, and You will! We take risks every day in the life. When we go out and about, we are risking our lives because we don’t know if we will make it through the day alive, but we have faith that we will. It’s like second nature.
