Let’s jump in: What is something outside of work that is bringing you joy lately?
my children husband and family
Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
Hey wassup this is your girl Aubria owner of the fantastic relaxing Beauty Spa FacingIT! Born & raise in the city of East Point Ga I grew up playing a-lot of different sport but my favorite was basketball, I stayed outside with friend’s and family & I also loved to dance. I am the youngest of three and my family and I are very close. Family is important especially the one that you make. Through out my high school career of playing ball being a dancer, in my school band, to winning Ms,Douglass ,my 12th Grade year, I found the love of my life. We are High School sweet hearts that have been together for 14 years married for 7 of those wonderful years. We share three loving healthy children and is living life to the fullest. I Stared My Solo Esthetician Career right after I left UPS in 2020 right after covid begin because I wanted something new for my and my growing family! I always got compliments on my skin so I wanted to help other on how to maintain a healthy skin care journey. I went to school and got certified in many area of esthetician work such as Facials, Waxing, Body Contouring, Yoni Steam, & Sauna Blanket. I offer various service within the ones I just stated and would love to share some time to do some on you! I also make by hand with love my own body/face butters, body&face scrubs, body&face oils, and sell numerous of other beauty products. I operate out of my own shop off of Washington Road In East Point Ga ! Stop By , Make an Appointment and come see me!
Great, so let’s dive into your journey a bit more. What relationship most shaped how you see yourself?
Me and my mom have a very loving relationship. Sometimes we do bomb heads because we both are so much alike and is very strong minded. You know how you have them moments with your parents where you feel as though sometimes they are not listening or understanding? I have those moment with my mom, but what gets me through those moments is communication ! So early on I learned how to express my feelings, my thoughts, my concerns, my questions, and while I got older expressing myself to my mom became somewhat easier with the communication that is still there. So I would say having the tough but necessary conversation with anyone helps you to under one another better. No matter what your discussing business, life and or a fun time my relationship with my moms shows me how to communicate better.
If you could say one kind thing to your younger self, what would it be?
Always listen to your conscious. Do not ever give up. & Always be yourself. I did those exact things growing up & I really believe that help mold be to becoming the women and entrepreneur I am today
I think our readers would appreciate hearing more about your values and what you think matters in life and career, etc. So our next question is along those lines. What’s a belief or project you’re committed to, no matter how long it takes?
A belief I am committed to is always finished what you have started, never give up no matter how long it takes. Rather you use that in real life, work, business, or around family & friends ,if it is meant to be done you can do it.
Okay, we’ve made it essentially to the end. One last question before you go. When do you feel most at peace?
I feel most at peace when I am with my husband & kids and the times i can get alone lol. Having those little alone times when no one is crying or whining but we all sitting around chilling and loving on each other those are definitly the times I feel the most peaceful. Also when a clients get up from my table and really love what she see’s that bring pace as well. Seeing how I can make other feels and smile.
