Today we’d like to introduce you to Kelly Lavelle.
Kelly, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
I have always known how important it is to follow your passion, until one day I realized what I thought was my passion wasn’t.
In my late twenties (In my early twenties I was an aesthetician at a med spa) I was lucky enough to stumble into the senior living industry, absolutely fell in love with it, and because of that, I did quite well. I started to travel A LOT! I was away from home A LOT! And I was miserable.
I started meditating, reciting affirmations, reading all types of metaphysical books, in all attempts to ground myself. Until one day I decided I needed to get back to what I was really passionate about and that was skincare and making people feel fabulous! And what better place to do it than Scottsdale, Arizona!
I spent over a year planning out what I wanted my studio to look like, the skincare line I wanted to carry, what the spa menu would entail! I left my corporate job in March 2020 to open Aloe Beauty and never looked back. I pinch myself every morning, I can’t believe I did it! I pursued my passion and I couldn’t be happier. Plus, every client I see says that I give the best facial they have ever had (this is not a coincidence, this is my true passion coming through)…
