Her turning point came when her younger brother introduced her to Whatnot, an auction app where sellers livestream auctions of various items. Kabani quickly found her niche in women’s fashion and became captivated by the idea of selling clothing online. “I became obsessed,” she recalls. Within a month, she knew, “I can do this.”
What started as a side hustle soon evolved into a full-time career. Kabani’s page, zkstyles, has become a major success, earning her over $100,000 per month. Her background in sales made the transition smooth, and she discovered a new passion for sourcing and showcasing unique clothing. “It was a very natural progression for me to get in front of a camera and talk about a product,” she says.
Kabani’s business model stands out due to her dedication and attention to detail. She maintains a rigorous six-day streaming schedule, often lasting several hours each night. Her streams attract a loyal audience, and she has sold over 75,000 items on Whatnot to date. By offering styling tips and engaging with her customers, Kabani has built a successful and fulfilling career in a completely different industry.
Despite the long hours, Kabani loves her new venture. “I’m having so much fun playing with clothing,” she shares. Her story is a testament to the power of following one’s passion and taking bold steps toward a more fulfilling life.
