'RHOSLC': What does Lisa Barlow do for a living? Here's how the richest housewife earned her massive fortune
Having to run a business, take care of a family and be a parent is no easy feat. All three areas require constant and equal attention and at no point can you ignore one for the other.
While 'Real Housewives of Salt Lake City' is meant to follow the lives of housewives (it's literally in the name), Lisa Barlow isn't exactly one. She happens to wear many hats. Having worked in HR and launched multiple businesses, two of which are still functioning and thriving, Lisa is definitely an entrepreneur down to the bone.
The latest episode of 'RHOSLC' saw Lisa and John Barlow get candid about their workaholic ways and how it's affecting the family. The husband and wife duo run multiple successful businesses, so it comes as no surprise that they find themselves torn between responsibilities. John even said that in the hierarchy of priorities, they put themselves last, while Lisa confessed she often wonders if her sons are happy. By the sound of it, the grind never seems to end for the couple, after all, running two businesses is no easy feat. Wondering what has Lisa and John caught up all the time? Let's find out.
The couple runs a tequila distillery and a marketing company
It seems peculiar that the practicing Mormons run a business that deals with alcohol, seeing that Mormonism forbids its followers from drinking. But Lisa considers herself a Mormon 2.0, she doesn't necessarily stick to rules or traditions. The couple launched their tequila brand VIDA in 2007.
"The new bottle is serious. I was very hands-on in every aspect of this design. Our tequila is extraordinary, and the bottle had to match. It reflects the way I see tequila; the way I see Mexico. I wanted to create something true to our experience, bold and unique as my fingerprint. This is my fingerprint on tequila. I am a risk-taker; there is no risk in what we have created, it is iconic and inspiring," says Lisa, as per the VIDA website.
Apart from VIDA, the couple also runs LUXE, a marketing firm that deals with lifestyles and special events marketing. Lisa has always been about the hustle, seeing that she used to previously own a restaurant as well.
Lisa is the richest housewife on 'RHOSLC'
Lisa, alongside Mary Cosby, are the richest members of the cast. They both have a net worth of $5M each. With Lisa running two successful businesses, it comes as no surprise that she cashes in a pretty big cheque on payday.
