Hidden Gems: Meet Katherine Pineda of Glow More Beauty

Today we’d like to introduce you to Katherine Pineda.

Hi Katherine, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
I always loved crafting and drawing when I was younger. I would always come up with some kind of craft project whether it was at home or school. During the pandemic, I was always on TikTok and YouTube. I would always see successful young entrepreneurs. It inspired me so much. I knew I could do the same. So I put myself to the test. I began doing research and thinking to myself, what could I do that I will enjoy and is trending? I thought, why not jewelry? It involves cute trendy pieces and it also involves crafting. Two things I enjoy!

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?
It has not always been a smooth road. During the pandemic, I had a baby the same month I first heard about covid-19, March 2020. I was also a teen mom. I had online school. It was hard taking care of a newborn baby while having online school and a small business. Another struggle I dealt with was trying to be consistent. The most important thing in a business is to be consistent. Sometimes I felt like giving up but I knew if I kept going I knew I could reach success. People think running a business is easy but it is not. I was my own photographer, social media manager, and content creator. I had to sacrifice time in order to be able to do what was necessary for my business. It was hard but I loved every process of it.

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
