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

Hi Destinie, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
Well this would be my second business I am a licensed esthetician I specialize in body waxing which is hair removal services for women. I am the owner of D.W. Beauty Work Intimate Wax LLC my thought process was what can I do as a second business that dont’t require me to physically work all day and caters to women but also goes hand and hand with my current business. That’s when it came to me women clothing but particularly loungewear which is my go to style with being a mother and working my small business full time I just like to dress comfortable on my down time and when I’m out and about but also loungewear is the style of clothing that my clients should wear to their wax appointment. Once I made up my mind and did the homework I was ready to go and Cozy Cudddles Loungewear was created.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
My company name is Cozy Cuddles Loungewear. My online loungewear store will be live May 14th and I am so excited because I am doing business my way based on the styles I love and want to share with other women. I describe my loungewear store in three words cozy, comfy, living which means keeping it simple and cute without doing much my pieces are for all women you can wear your loungewear as stay home clothes, running errands or dress it up whatever you want to do. I have been doing well with my first business so it gave me what I needed to start Cozy Cuddles Loungewear this time around it was easier getting everything I need to get started especially because this will be an online store. I am just waiting for my soft launch day and I will take it from there see how things go but I am so excited about this new venture!

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
This is a hard one it’s so many things to do in Atlanta I would definitely have to go to South Roc Cuisine love that restaurant! We would definitely just hit up the city I still have some kid in me so I would want to do six flags, the aquarium, some arcade type spots. We would tour the New Black Wall Street Market where my wax studio is located that’s pretty much it just some simple fun my best friends are my sisters we all have kids so that’s what our outings would be catered to.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Wow I would definitely say everything I do is for my children and to do my best to provide them with the things I didn’t have growing up not just the material things they always keep me going but I wouldn’t be where I am without the support of their father my husband. We have been through everything together and he is always there to help and support in every way so he plays a big part in my life and my sisters they are always cheering me on they are my hype team.
