Vanessa Holloway is the founder of Jintara®, a minority-owned business specializing in plant based and natural – body care, home care and wellness products and supplying safe alternatives for various skin needs while promoting self care.

I sat down with Vanessa to chat about her company, her latest offering, and of course, Women’s History Month!

What was the reason for creating this plant based safe skin care line?

“Jintara® started with trying to find an alternative for my children, who suffered from eczema and other problematic skin challenges.”

In honor of Women’s History Month,who inspires you?

“My daughter’s Desiré and Hope continue to inspire me as we grow together.“

What is your message to the next generation of women?

“We can not control or dictate our experiences or circumstances, but we are still responsible for who we choose to become. Breaking generational curses often start with a change in mindset and being the odd one in the bunch. We may have to work twice as hard to get the things done that may come easier to our counterparts but do the work, anyway. The beautiful thing about succeeding is you only have to do it once, and remember, some flowers bloom amongst concrete!”
