We had the good fortune of connecting with Tiffanie Smith and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Tiffanie, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
My thought process in starting my own brand , was solely me trying to find a way to make bath bombs with all natural ingredients. It stemmed from having an allergic reaction to a bath bomb from a well known bath company . I just wanted to make something that was safe for your skin without any harsh reactions.
Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
When I’m not making bath products or attending a local vendors market, I work for a dental organization FT & also PT in retail. Between 2 jobs and my business I’m always on the go. My brand is intended to help promote selfcare. I started this business in the midst of the pandemic when our worlds were completely turned upside down. As adults we don’t focus on self care like we should, it’s always the hustle and bustle of life. So I wanted to bring that back and let us always remember to take time for you. Even if it’s something as small as taking a shower with a shower steamer for an aromatherapy experience.
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
So my best friend comes here often. Our favorite spot is definitely Pappadeaux. Over the last few years we’ve been hooked on The Daiquiri Shop in Carrollton for food drinks and an overall good time. We’d also definitely hit up my Farmer’s Market on a Sunday, specifically for the beignets!!! We’d also probably visit a few spots in The Colony or Legacy West. Those are my favorite places to visit around the city..oh and let me not forget Deep Ellum during the daytime!!!
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
My mom, my 3 best friends, my mom’s best friend, and anyone else that has helped me over the past 3 years. Whether you were my focus group and I sent samples to you or if you’ve help promote my business in any way, helped at an event or just been there to listen to my ideas.
