In order to be a successful entrepreneur, a few key skills and personality traits are required. Possibly two of the most important are persistence and a passion for your pursuit. For Jennifer Carrasco, founder of Virago Skin & Body Studio, it was a combination of these mindsets along with the willingness to take risks. “Dream big, act fast, think later, and run at speed most cannot even see, let alone try to catch.” This is what Carrasco shared as an insight into her entrepreneurial mindset. With so much already accomplished, Carrasco is still full steam ahead.
Just over two decades ago, Jennifer Carrasco identified the lack of quality, healthy, and effective skincare products. She began developing her now highly successful V Skincare line and founded Virago Skin & Body Studio. This would mark her first step into a career of health and fitness.
Of course, as all successful entrepreneurs do, Carrasco faced her challenges along the way. Both personally and professionally, there were obstacles in Carrasco’s way that would have made many others quit. However, through perseverance, she only grew stronger. “Don’t let fear stand in your way,” Carrasco advises. “Push past the thought pattern of the unknown. That unknown feeling is a feeling of greatness.
Recently, Carrasco has only furthered her entrepreneurial expeditions. She is now the owner of Roseville Rocklin Electric, Inc. and competes as an IFBB pro athlete. With all she has learned in her line of business, Carrasco has also recently begun working as a health coach, helping those who are not comfortable in their skin learn how to be. Her latest health advice has come in the form of her 6-week metabolism program, which you can learn about on her website.
