We recently connected with Taylor Dante and have shared our conversation below.
Taylor, 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.
Personally, I have found that pushing myself into uncomfortable situations gives me the most confidence. It is always during those situations I am reminded that life is not as scary as it appears. For instance, a few months ago I spoke on a social media panel. Even though very hesitant to say no at the end of the day I was overwhelmed with such a rush of confidence.
Also, it is important to give credit where credit is due. I owe a tremendous amount of my confidence to my mom. Throughout my whole life, she has always reminded both my sister and me to wear our “confidence hats”. That consistent reminder and support are the greatest boost!
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?
I am the {C}hief {E}ating {O}fficer of TAYstyTravels! As a content creator, I share all of my TAYsty experiences throughout South Florida and across the world. A few years ago it all started out as just a name and has now grown into a full-time business. I have had the opportunity to work with amazing brands such as the City of Las Vegas, Papa John’s, Hard Rock Cafe, Gorton’s Seafood, Virgin Voyages, Winn-Dixie, and so much more. Highlighting delicious local restaurants along with my homemade recipes as well.
Currently, I am part of the Disney Creator’s Lab as well as finalizing my upcoming travel plans for this year. If you love food, travel, and fun recipe content I recommend following me @TAYstyTravels on all platforms!
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?
Three qualities that come to mind are curiosity, passion, and communication. I do not believe these are qualities that you can develop but should have to successfully grow. Of course, over time qualities such as communication can be improved but a natural curiosity and passion for content creation should come naturally. If not there is an even greater chance the journey will be harder.
Before we go, any advice you can share with people who are feeling overwhelmed?
Write it all down! Throughout the day I am constantly making notes whether it is in my planner, a notepad, or on my phone. This way I can keep going back and somewhere there will be everything I need to accomplish.
