We had the good fortune of connecting with Chelsea Ervin and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Chelsea, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
My thought process behind starting my own business was to be a millionaire. And by the month , I am getting closer and closer . Expanding my mind and vision has been my biggest growth throughout my business journey . I’ve been servicing celebrities , networking and expanding my business to different states/ locations. I am currently preparing to make a big purchase of owning my own location .

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Growing up on the south side of St Petersburg, Fl , it was a little tough . Not having my parents around to raise me , and not really feeling like I belong anywhere took a tole on my mantle health at a young age. I never saw myself being the person I am today . A big push from my Aunt Denise and cousin Jazmin forced me to think outside of the box and go off to college to be the best version of myself and the first in my family to go to a university. There i grew confidence, learned what it was like to be responsible, and I learned that life long connections mattered . After graduating from my University, seeing how far I’ve come , I knew I wasn’t going to be content with being good enough , I wanted to be great despite all of my adversity or obstacles that came my way . Now instead of thinking that the sky is the limit , I reach for the starts !

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
My favorite place to go for food is Slutty Vegan ! My favorite bar is Moustache bar , and I love going skating at Cascade .

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
My biggest shout out goes to my supporters from the very beginning, and that is in St Petersburg, Fl . I would also like to give thanks to my Alma Mater , Florida A&M University, the best HBCU in the land , deserves all of my love and respect for molding me into the version of myself I am in today . I would like to thank my Atlanta clients for making sure I am always supported and they are very consistent.
