We had the good fortune of connecting with James Kingsbury and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi James, do you have some perspective or insight you can share with us on the question of when someone should give up versus when they should keep going?
In the thrilling adventure of entrepreneurship, perseverance is the heartbeat that will propel you forward through the highs and lows. It’s the unwavering belief in your vision, the audacious spirit that refuses to surrender to adversity. Every setback is a stepping stone, every obstacle a test of your resilience. Giving up is not an option. In the face of doubt and uncertainty, remember that greatness lies not in avoiding failure, but in rising stronger each time we fall. Embrace the challenges, for they are the forge where our character is tempered, our dreams refined. With each day, you have the opportunity to rewrite your story, to paint your aspirations on the canvas of reality. So, stand tall, push forward, and let perseverance be your guiding light. For in the pursuit of your dreams, it is in the unwavering resolve to never give up that lies the promise of a brighter, bolder tomorrow.

My journey to where I am today in business has been shaped by a combination of bold decision-making, diligent research, and invaluable connections with experienced individuals. The pivotal moment came when I took the plunge, making the decision to pursue my entrepreneurial aspirations. It was a leap of faith, fueled by a belief in my vision and a determination to see it through. Along the way, I immersed myself in extensive research, soaking up knowledge and insights from various sources. Networking with seasoned professionals provided invaluable guidance and mentorship, helping me navigate the complexities of the business landscape. However, perhaps the most crucial factor in my journey has been perseverance—the steadfast commitment to keep pushing forward, even in the face of challenges and setbacks.

It has not been easy. Embarking on the journey of entrepreneurship has presented its challenges. Navigating this new world of business and aesthetics. even with my background as a medical doctor, has come with a significant learning curve. My prior education and training, focused primarily on Interventional Radiology, have posed unique hurdles in adapting to the demands of entrepreneurship, especially in the world of aesthetics. Acquiring knowledge about various tools and treatments in aesthetics, seeking out training to learn the best and safest techniques, delving into research on different devices and their effectiveness, and grappling with the financial considerations of procuring supplies, equipment, undertaking construction, and marketing have all been various challenges I’ve had to face. But if it was easy everybody would do it. If it wasn’t hard then it wouldn’t be worth doing. Nothing is hard if you enjoy it.

I want to convey that Nourish Polaris embodies perseverance and a steadfast commitment to the relentless pursuit of excellence. Our mission is centered on empowering individuals to feel beautiful, confident, and to realize their fullest potential.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
To kick off our adventure in downtown Columbus, we’ll indulge in a delightful brunch at Northstar Café nestled in the vibrant Short North Arts District. Our next stop will be the Columbus Museum of Art, where we’ll immerse ourselves in its impressive collection. Afterward, we’ll wander through the serene gardens and conservatory at Franklin Park Conservatory before savoring an authentic German meal at Schmidt’s Sausage Haus and Restaurant. If time permits, we’ll make a detour to the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium to marvel at its diverse animal exhibits. Later, we’ll consider exploring the trails of the Scioto Audubon Metro Park for a refreshing hike or bike ride. As the day draws to a close, we’ll dine at The Top Steakhouse, renowned for its classic ambiance and delectable steaks, followed by a nightcap at Curio at Harvest, celebrated for its exquisite craft cocktails.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Numerous individuals have played integral roles in my entrepreneurial journey, and while it’s challenging to acknowledge each one individually, their collective guidance, encouragement, and belief in my vision have been profoundly appreciated. Among them, the individuals who have joined our team at Nourish Polaris have been particularly instrumental in our achievements.

Rebekah Reese, in particular, has been a steadfast pillar of support since our inception, contributing significantly to our success. They say that your network determines your net worth, and I wholeheartedly agree. From mentors who have offered invaluable wisdom to loved ones whose unwavering backing has been my anchor, each person has made an indispensable contribution to my growth.

It’s also crucial to underscore the necessity of having a reliable and dependable business partner, in my case Dr. Michael Martin, who can share the load and offer valuable ideas, insights, and perspectives. I am profoundly grateful for the privilege of having such an exceptional support system by my side as I pursue my aspirations.
