An Inspired Chat with Elkin Torres of Port Saint Lucie

We recently had the chance to connect with Elkin Torres and have shared our conversation below.

Hi Elkin , thank you so much for joining us today. We’re thrilled to learn more about your journey, values and what you are currently working on. Let’s start with an ice breaker: What is a normal day like for you right now?
My normal day consists of going to the gym. Doing my normal routine prepping my shake and hot tea then I go into my shop and start my day. Typically it is a 10 hour day.

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
Hi, my name is Elkin Torres and I’m a barber for 20+ years. I represent the brand royalty Barber salon which has been in business since 2015. We started the brand in Hollywood Florida back in 2015. Then we move the brand to Port St. Lucie Florida in 2021 and we’ve been here for approximately five years. Our barbershop salon is very particular because it’s located inside of a suite salon model we offer our guest, a one on one experience, Vip Style.we are currently working on a second business model with nutrition.

Appreciate your sharing that. Let’s talk about your life, growing up and some of topics and learnings around that. What’s a moment that really shaped how you see the world?
The moment that shaped me was the time when I lost my dad it changed my life for good .

What did suffering teach you that success never could?
Suffering taught me that we need to value what we have versus success because success is the final product after the suffering.

Sure, so let’s go deeper into your values and how you think. Is the public version of you the real you?
Yes

Okay, so let’s keep going with one more question that means a lot to us: What is the story you hope people tell about you when you’re gone?
I hope people can say what I truly did for them and for myself in the journey of my life I hope they can value anything that I’ve taught them and applied to their life on a daily basis
