Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Ginger KING. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Ginger, so great to have you with us and we want to jump right into a really important question. In recent years, it’s become so clear that we’re living through a time where so many folks are lacking self-confidence and self-esteem. So, we’d love to hear about your journey and how you developed your self-confidence and self-esteem.
Confidence comes from doing. It also comes from thinking about what is the worst thing that can happen and what is the consequence if I do it versus I do not. Self-esteem correlates to confidence. When you have confidence (which can be trained), you will have more self-esteem. Both confidence and self-esteem are also centered around the principle that do not care what others think and go with your gut feeling.
Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?
Ginger King is an award-winning cosmetic chemist and the founder of Grace Kingdom Beauty a cosmetic product development firm in New Jersey specializing in helping you to create your beauty brand from concept to launch. She is on a mission to impact 1 million people’s appearance through purpose-built brands by 2027.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
The most important qualities to have for success are persistence, consistence, and passion. Persistence is to keep doing what you think is worth doing. To be persistent, you need to have a very strong emotional why to keep you going. Consistence is to develop a schedule or system so you can persistently follow the routine. Once you get into the routine mode, things just flow better. Passion is the fuel that gets you going daily. One more thing is that before you are persistent, consistent, and passionate about what you are doing, you must tell yourself, yes, I am committed. Commit first and creativity will follow to get things done.
Tell us what your ideal client would be like?
For my consulting business, an ideal client actually takes after my trait- the ability to make quick decisions. I found I work best when my client answers my email immediately, pays my invoice immediately, and responds to me regardless of it’s holidays or weekends. I feel we are on the same page. These are the personal characteristics that work well with me. The ability to make quick decisions is critical in success.
