We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Kristen Ryan a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Kristen , we’re thrilled to have you sharing your thoughts and lessons with our community. So, for folks who are at a stage in their life or career where they are trying to be more resilient, can you share where you get your resilience from?
Navigating Life’s Challenges with Resilience and Love
Adversity is a common experience we all face in life, and often our perception of those experiences determines the level of difficulty we encounter. It is our ability to overcome those challenges that fosters resilience. For me, it took a while to learn how to move past negative emotions that no longer served me. However, having great teachers and consistent practice helped me to keep an open heart even when it was broken.
I have learned to see challenges as opportunities for growth and ask myself important questions. If I have control over a situation, I develop a plan and take action to overcome the obstacle. If it is out of my control, I choose to take responsibility for how I respond to it.
It’s okay to take time to build the courage to take action, but it’s important to have the courage to continue to seek joy during difficult times. Those who choose love and joy will become resilient, and in the end, they will live a life full of purpose and fulfillment. Remember, life is short, so live without apology, follow your path and live boldly!
Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?
Discover Paige Ryan Beauty: Affordable, Botanical-Based Skincare My name is Kristen Paige Ryan and I am the creator of Paige Ryan Beauty. Our mission is to provide luxurious yet affordable skincare that is botanical-based and cruelty-free. We believe in harnessing the power of nature and using the highest quality plant extracts, which offer natural antioxidants that benefit your skin. We never test on animals and prefer using essential oils over synthetic fragrances. Our entire line is suitable for most skin types, with a specialization in maturing skin (ages 35+). Our product bundles are designed to simplify your skincare routine and absorb quickly, allowing you to apply your cosmetics within one to two minutes. At Paige Ryan Beauty, we strongly believe in giving back to the community and supporting survivors of domestic violence. That’s why we created Beauty Beyond Skin Deep, an initiative that donates a portion of our sales to non-profit organizations that provide aid to survivors.
We’re also proud to announce the launch of our newest product made to pair with the Superpower Under-eye Treatment. The Sensitive-C Complex Eye Cream will keep the fragile under-eye skin moisturized without irritation and facilitate longer cell health. Plus, it’s fragrance free! We recommend applying this after cleansing, let soak in and then apply our Superpower Under-eye Treatment to instantly eliminate the puff.
There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
The contributing factors to the success of my entrepreneurial journey have been, planning, effective communication and nurturing relationships. If you’re just starting out, my advice would be to study the habits of successful business owners, learn about their work and personal routines, and then tailor them to fit your own experience. This can provide valuable insight into the steps you should take to achieve your goals.
How would you describe your ideal client?
