Today we’d like to introduce you to Tyler Pennington.
Hi Tyler, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
I graduated from the University of North Texas in 2019 and began working for an investment bank a week after graduation. While being grateful for the blessing I knew immediately that I didn’t plan to stay long. The longer I stayed the more I knew I needed to work for MYSELF. Once COVID happened it made me realize how much my job was affecting my mental health and overall happiness. I decided to make a change and choose a new path that would align more with my purpose and overall goals. Having faith and knowing that my plans were led by God, allowed me to walk by faith and not by sight.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way? Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Deciding to take the leap of faith on myself was not a smooth road at all. The main obstacle was to quit my job and choose to focus solely on my business. I had to make the decision of playing it safe or betting on myself. Eventually, God placed me in a position where choosing my business was the only option available. After choosing to become a full-time entrepreneur the next obstacle was keeping the faith and trusting that God would be with me every step of the way. Understanding that these aren’t obstacles they are lessons needed to prepare you for the journey helps me to navigate any and every obstacle in my path.
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I am a Lash Tech located in Arlington, Texas specializing in Volume and Mega Volume Lashes. I also sell products such as lash bath kits, T-shirts, and strip lashes.
I am most proud of how far I have come in my lash journey so soon. I started Lashing April 2021 in the middle of my living room (yes, the middle…) as a side hustle. The intention was to turn the hustle to a career. Fast forward 1 year and I am a full-time lash tech with my own lash suite.
What sets me apart from others is the understanding that this journey has just begun and this will not be easy. However, I am capable and willing to endure every obstacle in my way and never give up or get discouraged.
What matters most to you? Why?
What matters most to me is being true to myself and doing all things in love. I live by knowing that as long as everything I do is done with love and good intentions any outcome produced is the one that serves me best. This is important to me because of the condition of the world we live in today. A lot of times you never know who you’re speaking to or interacting with and sometimes kindness can go a long way! This is something my mom instilled in me as a child and I do my best to uphold these values and pass them along to anyone I encounter.
