We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Tabias Howard. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Tabias below.
Tabias, 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?
Resilance comes from the exceptance that I will fail, I have failed, and that every moment of perceived failure I grow. Its held up from a knowing inside that all things are in perfect alignment, that I am where I am perfectly to project me into the vision I hold in my heart so dearly as my truth.
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?

Here’s a rewritten version of your story:
I provide a path to freedom. Whether it’s crafting custom van builds or offering weekend adventure getaways, our camper vans bring people back to the simplicity we all crave in our busy lives. They offer a comfortable way to reconnect with nature and its calming, healing energy.
The story begins with an electrician meeting a random woman in a grocery store—an encounter that forever changed the course of my life. What started as a small van-building and rental company has grown into a journey of collaborating with others in the industry, co-creating different visions of freedom. It began with just one builder traveling the country, driven by a passion for crafting playful, mobile homes.
Now rooted in Reno, we’ve focused our efforts on expanding our rental fleet. Our vision is to grow each year, transforming our vans into fun, cozy havens for fellow adventurers exploring the Great Sierra Nevada Mountains. We’re also excited to launch our new monthly and long-term rental options, along with discounts to make extended adventures even more accessible.
Looking ahead, we aim to keep pushing the boundaries of conventional van builds. We’re committed to creating uniquely tailored designs for those who crave something more artistic and outside the mainstream. Our goal is to spark imagination, partnering with clients to explore new and creative ways to enjoy life on the road.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
Self-Care first. Stay grounded, fill your cup daily, and then show up in the company. It’s about responding not reacting. If you are reacting your cup isn’t full.
Stay in the Present.
Be patience with the process, it’s not the end point to enjoy but the creative journey. Be ok with the daily shifts and changes.
Except that what you think it looks like might nor always be the case, be open to the flow of your creation.
Advice, BE RESILANT!!! Trust yourself. If you don’t know how, Learn. You are the only that can keep your from getting there. You will be tested over and over. See the grow in it, your perceived failures now, will be your stengths later.
Find a practice that is perfect for you and trust it when it gets hard.
Who is your ideal client or what sort of characteristics would make someone an ideal client for you?
An ideal client for our camper van building company is someone who thrives on creativity, adventure, and individuality. They are not just looking for a standard van but a one-of-a-kind mobile home that reflects their unique personality and lifestyle. This person is likely an artist at heart, whether they’re an adventurer, entrepreneur, or creative professional. They are deeply involved in the design process and seek a collaborative experience, where their ideas and passions are brought to life in ways that can’t be found anywhere else.
This client values the journey of co-creation. They want to sit down with us, exchange ideas, and inspire one another to push the boundaries of conventional van design. Whether it’s incorporating unconventional materials, adding hidden, multifunctional elements, or integrating custom artwork, they want their build to tell a story and capture a vision that feels authentic to them.
They embrace the freedom that comes with van life and see their vehicle as more than just transportation—it’s a living space, a creative expression, and a vessel for new experiences. Above all, they seek a van that is not only functional but also playful, artistic, and completely unique.
