Last week at IPSY, trailblazing Latino founders #MannyMUA of Lunar Beauty, #JulesMiller The Nue Co. and #ShanBerries of Shades By Shan joined us in an internal panel discussion about their journeys and inspirations as founders, and the experiences and lessons they’ve gathered as they’ve built their businesses, overcome challenges, and navigated feelings of self-doubt. It takes confidence, perseverance, and gratitude, mi gente! Conversations like this are so POWERFUL, inspirational, and validating, and why we prioritize hosting employee sessions like this every month. Check out these mic-drop moments: 🎤 “If you have a passion, you have to pursue it. You have to make your dream come true because no one else is going to do it for you. We’re literally going to be older tomorrow. Do the thing!” -Manny Gutierrez 🎤 “Coming from immigrant parents was the best business school I could have to start a business—being resourceful, making something out of nothing, being appreciative of every opportunity… When I set up the Nue Co. and moved to New York, I didn’t have any friends or family, I had never spoken to an investor or buyer, and I felt fine because it’s ingrained in my roots. I’m going to put myself out there, I’m going to cold email, I’m going to walk in and introduce myself. Just do it!”  -Jules Miller 🎤“Like my mother would say, ‘la cosa es empezar’—you just have to start! My brand has transformed and evolved. You don’t know where you’ll be in 5 years—I’m on a panel with IPSY! If I hadn’t started and taken that leap of faith, if I had given up when things got tough, I would’ve never known. If you don’t start, you’ll never know!” -Shan Berries ❤️ We offer internal employee panels like this every month highlighting the lived experiences of amazing individuals to foster inspiration, growth, and connection. Shoutout to our very own Pierina Pena for moderating this amazing session!
