  • Are You Letting Self-Doubt Stop You From Applying for Funding? HerSuite Spot Grant Recipient Kim Cross of Zhi Bath and Beauty Shares How She Overcame Imposter Syndrome and Secured The Money She Needed to Transform Her Dream Business.

    Are you stopping yourself from applying for funding? 

    Are you ready to stop letting that voice in your head tell you that you can’t do it? 

    Could you imagine saying no to a free $500 because you didn't think you deserved it? 

    If Kim Cross of Zhi Bath and Beauty disqualified herself, she would have never grown her dream business with the funding she needed. 

    Kim shares with us how she overcame imposter syndrome and decided to go after the money she needed to transform her dream business with mentorship, education & network. 

    To help her business go forward she shares how she invested time in applying for several grants connected to her mission. She leaves encouragement to the women in business looking for funding to do it afraid, make the time, and don’t quit!

    Kim just made the decision to keep going no matter how she was feeling. Getting better with each grant application she landed one and shared much-needed advice. 

    Bio: 

    Kimberly Cross is the Happy Skin Formulator and proud Navy veteran. She served in the U.S. Navy, following the footsteps of a long line of servicemembers. Her military service took her from Chicago to Florida to Washington State and several trips overseas defending the country she so loves. 

    She often speaks of how fascinating it was to experience the different types of planes and jets for the various branches of the military and how each one works together to complete the same mission. It is what inspired her to remain in the aviation industry at the end of her enlistment. 

    Kim was never completely satisfied with being out of the military, so she began to follow her original passion of being a hairstylist--a trade she had been active in since middle school. Constant exposure to water and chemicals made a skin condition she developed in the Navy worsen, so she finally came from behind the stylist chair after almost 20 years in the cosmetology industry. With her skin out of control, she began her journey to entrepreneurship when finding skincare products that did not agitate her already inflamed skin became almost impossible. 

    Knowing the hardship of finding skincare that is gentle, good for the skin, and smells amazing, Kim used the grit and determination learned in the military to research and formulate her own solution. Zhi Bath & Body was born from years of trial and error with formulas and testing. For almost 17 years, her goat milk skincare and soy candles have been helping people of all ages and skin types to love their skin…naturally.
