Kristin Cavallari On The Hardest Part Of Being A Business Owner

Kristin Cavallari began her career as a reality star in the show ‘Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County’, which documented the lives of her and her friends, which then had a spin-off series called ‘The Hills.’  In addition to having roles in several movies, Kristin has also been a guest judge on ‘America’s Next Top Model’ and competed in ‘Dancing with the Stars’.

In 2017, Kristin launched her new company “Uncommon James”, which offers jewelry and accessories for the “modern on-the-go woman who is sophisticated and timeless”. Kristin Cavallari explains the hardest part of running her business, “Uncommon James”. The former reality star and entrepreneur says that one of the most difficult conversations she needs to have is when a member of her staff is not living up to her expectations and she needs to have a “difficult” conversation with them.

Additionally, if anything goes wrong, it is her company, so she is responsible for the end result of everything. She cannot hide behind a big company and so when a decision she makes does not please a customer, the blame lies with her. However, even though being the boss is sometimes difficult, Kristin has opened a brick and mortar store in Nashville, where she lives, and has plans to expand into baby clothing as well. “Little James” will be sold exclusively in the Nashville store for the first year before a full launch in spring 2019.
