We had the good fortune of connecting with Tavanna Prince and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Tavanna, is there a quote or affirmation that’s meaningful to you?
My favorite is quote is “Fall down 9 times, get up 10”. Throughout my life, I’ve dealt with things professionally, academically, personally, and financially. Some situations have been worse than others. Some days I just didn’t want to deal or even get out of bed, but I never ever quit. I believe each day is about taking the opportunity to try again. Whether you make a mistake, hear a “No”, or just can’t find your way, each new day God brings is an opportunity to try to get better. The opportunity to be better is something I really strive for and I know that in order to be better, I have to keep going even when the going gets a little tough!
Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Essential Things is a company designed to meet the needs of healthcare professionals in a centralized place. Our goal is to service healthcare professionals, facilities, and schools function at a high quality while remaining cost efficient. Healthcare workers were faced with so many obstacles during the pandemic, went without so much, and did the best they could with limited supplies. Our goal is to help ease the burden from health professionals by serving and catering to their needs.
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
That’s so hard. I feel like Dallas has a lot of fun things to do. I would take them to The Rustic for brunch and then go for a massage at Hand and Stone followed by Northpark for some shopping. Dinner is tough but maybe lower Greenville or the Shops of Legacy. And for a bonus pick, if they’re in season, we might catch a Mavericks game; MFFL baby!
Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would always have to give credit to my sister. She’s my biggest inspiration, my biggest champion, my protection, and my peace. I’m so grateful to have her and all the support that she gives me. As a child, I would always write about her being my hero and inspiration. The way she supports and protects me is truly unmatched. As long as I have her, I know I can do it.
