We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Tabitha Lawhorn a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Tabitha, thanks for sharing your insights with our community today. Part of your success, no doubt, is due to your work ethic and so we’d love if you could open up about where you got your work ethic from?
I get my work ethic from my mom, growing up always seeing her working hard, achieving goals, and also having plenty of time for me was amazing….I admire her very much for that, so I try to mirror those ethics and apply them to my life now….it’s like she had super powers lol
Appreciate the insights and wisdom. Before we dig deeper and ask you about the skills that matter and more, maybe you can tell our readers about yourself?
My name is Tabitha Lawhorn, but most people call me Tab….I have a cosmetology background which I am extremely passionate about….anything under the cosmetology umbrella…I’m here for it! I launched my very own business back in 2020 called Tabz Cosmetics which specializes in a full vegan lip system which includes: lippie scrubs, lippie conditioners, high quality vibrant liquid matte lippies, with highly pigmented glitters to match..What I had in mind when developing my business, is what I wanted to stand for as a brand…I wanted to be relatable and promote simply being yourself unapologetically, standing out, shining, and being unique….those attributes are exactly who I am and what my products are….
Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
I strongly know for a fact that you MUST believe wholeheartedly in yourself and your product…It definitely needs to be your passion…you must always remain teachable and have a mentor in place if possible, also unmatched customer service goes a loooong way! Most importantly, be YOURSELF!!! Be authentically you!
To close, maybe we can chat about your parents and what they did that was particularly impactful for you?
The most impactful thing my parents did, was genuinely believe in me…they are some of my biggest cheerleaders, and with that type of support, it keeps me motivated and gives me even more ammunition to keep going!
