We had the good fortune of connecting with Tiffany Rose and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Tiffany, what’s the most important lesson your business/career has taught you?
The most important lesson my business has taught me is that I have to show up. When I am tired, when I am not at my best, when I am uninspired. I must show up.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Our company School Scents is a home fragrance company. Grant it, there are many brands out there that create products similar to ours. Our candle names say it all. They are to spark nostalgia with things that remind you of your days in school from elementary to college. We make our products with love. We strive to provide quality candles that are clean burning, non toxic that smell so damn good for each and every customer. As well as having a personable approach to our brand.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I am not from Dallas but on my times that I have visited, Nobu is still my favorite for dinner and drinks. Saint Ann’s is great for lunch or dinner and of course drinks at the Viceroy. You must catch a Mavericks basketball game for sure!

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Absolutely! I owe the credit to my tweenagers, Marley and Miles. I started this company with my now 12 year old daughter. My son does lend a hand as well.

Right before we launched doubt creeped in after I had them assist me in getting or shelves ready with tons of product to launch. I was scared. I had to think about how they are watching their mother and the hard work that we all put into launching would be all for nothing. No, I had to push the crippling effects of fear to the side and just go for it. Every time I want to stop, I think of them. And I have a very supportive group of people that cheer us on.
