We recently connected with Von Thomas and have shared our conversation below.

Alright, Von thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. If you could go back in time do you wish you had started your business sooner or later

If I could go back in time I would have most definitely not started my business sooner. If I would have started sooner I believe I wouldn’t have learned all the life lessons I’ve had the chance to learn. And I honestly would not even be half of the woman I am today

I’m very grateful for my business and all that’s it’s taught me about life. It’s been such a journey but I would not have it any other way!

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers

How I got into the beauty home and fashion industry is by always being obsessed with things revolving around it.

I’m a aesthetics kind of girl so anything beautiful literally makes my day!

I knew I would want to do something I love growing up so instead of following the advice I was given which was to just stick to what’s considered the “norm” or “easy” I took the high road and started auravon with a lot of faith passion and ease !

Now years later I run a boutique / cafe that provides a luxury but relaxing experience to those in the Texas, Florida, and Georgia area !

From skincare to clothes, I’ve had a vision to have it all and it’s been such a great experience seeing people react to my brand.

Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson?

One lesson I had to unlearn is that your past defines you.

I thought that being a young girl from Texas that didn’t grow up with either of her parents in the household would define me forever in a negative way because of the life experiences I went through but having a child and seeing what being consistent in my business does for me changed that perspective

I’ve helped so many people who I had no idea had a story like me !

Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?

A journey that illustrates my resilience is the one I’m on now with my physical shop ! For years I’ve mentioned to anyone who would hear that I would be investing in one as soon as I could and years later I’ve finally found the perfect store location ! I would not have found this amazing deal and area if I had not been resilient with my business and my faith !
