We were lucky to catch up with Trinity Lisbon recently and have shared our conversation below.

Alright, Trinity thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Can you talk to us about a risk you’ve taken – walk us through the story?

Growing up in a small town wasn’t always the easiest to get out. As we all know crime, broken families, and very little opportunities come along where I’m from. I always dreamed of becoming a cardio thoracic surgeon giving both of my parents needed donations, I was always focused in school to where I became very sure I would in fact become one… But then that’s how life took a turn for the worst and my whole plan derailed and changed overtime. After years of struggle from home to home, this is my story, my truth… I ended up in Atlanta with 100 bucks and a whip.. sounds crazy right but it was the biggest risk of my entire life, all Alone. That’s when I realized that the risk I took to get there was nothing compared to what I might have ended up twisted in. I was actually not prepared for the big A but Once I found my lane I stayed there and exceeded and once I realized how many different things I Was good at I was so excited to always try the new best thing to improve myself. I started doing makeup and hair also completed a master cosmetology program, a CFO/GM at a Top rated restaurant in Atlanta ga! Also becoming a mentor to so many. Also an Actress with a speaking role on BET many other Indy work, taking acting classes and learning how to maintain credit and purchasing a home within 31/2 years of living here all from that 100 bucks, sounds like a miracle to me! BUT I’m not done I will continue to learn to grow and find many things I would like to peruse… Nonetheless I’m nowhere near where I want to be, but I’m humble & thankful.

Trinity, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

Well I’m a small town girl with big dreams, if you haven’t read my previous article then you definitely missed out and its a must to go check it out! I’m from Walterboro SC, I moved to ATL in 2018 to pursue my dreams as soon as I arrived it was challenging but I maintained and exceeded I started my own brand called Angels Beauty Boutique and started providing hair & makeup services in ATL. Ive participated in different films and fashion shows. Also worked in the CFO field with O4w pizza, now opening a second O4w Pizza in Miami, South Beach in Alton Food Hall! I always feel that the experience is what keeps my clients & customers coming, that sweet southern charm in fact is what makes me different from others my personality is definitely top tier honey! But with all that being said, I just love networking and making new friends from all over the world.

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

I had to learn to let go of the past! It had me in a pickle for years and made me doubt myself with anything I’ve tried to accomplish… learning and acknowledging the problem was my first step to recovery, I started with realizing how far I became from the first time I came to Georgia. Once I became confident In what I could do is when I started to make effort and give my work a little TLC.

How’d you meet your business partner?

Meeting Anthony Spina was the best thing to ever happen to my career, my mentor, my family, my backbone. He believes in any vision I can come up with. I met him in the nightlife just two people living life to end up becoming partners in business and in life. He always gave me advice in what directions to take, very smart and educated! The best sponsor anyone could have the owner of O4w Pizza gave me a chance to flourish and find my own lane through his business.
