This week I sat down with award-winning makeup artist Omayma Ramzy. She shared her story and how she made a name for herself in the beauty industry. She also gave some great tips on building a brand and navigating your career. Here a just a few highlights from our conversation.
Start small
If you are looking to get started on a new career path or take the next step in your current career, just START. It really doesn’t matter where you start or what baby steps you take, but start with something!
Know why you are doing it, keep your purpose
It’s easy to lose sight of why you are doing what you are doing but if you are going to make it through the ups and downs in any business you have to keep your eyes on the prize.
Be adaptable
Know that you are going to pivot and that things may change. Although you may be headed in one direction, circumstances may require you to alter your course and things may not always go to plan and that is okay! This leads me to my next point.
Know when to let go
As you grow in your career, you have to know when to start delegating and invest in those tasks that are going to help you further expand. Don’t be afraid to be cut-throat.
And there you have it. To listen to my full interview with Omayma check out my podcast.
Until next week!
