We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Takenya Varner. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Takenya below.
Takenya, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Let’s jump right into how you came up with the idea?
I came up with the idea of my Creative Business from an unexpected Set-up that took place that was a negative experience for me , Especially living my everyday life . Not only was is hard for me to live a everyday normal life after that Situation, it was hard for me to trust others , as far as Social media, I now feel as if others are putting me in harms way just off of that one situation. It put me in the state of fear.
My intuition is High & I’ve always listen to my first instinct , so the plots could never prosper.
I am writing the book over actually Overcoming Challenges & obstacles Because I am not the only female who have experienced a trauma life lesson
I just felt if I was to write a book on my life story that it could help Others in major ways
Listening to my past life trauma, Led me to writing a Book about my Story that I feel will be a success to others who I may inspire
Takenya, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
Yes , My name is Takenya Varner. I am 24 years old . I was Born and raised in Atlanta Ga. I attended & graduated from Henry County High School. I always knew I wanted to be a successful business owner one day. I have experienced a numerous amount of jobs throughout my lifetimes. So, overtime as I were looking for a unique name for my brand I came up with “kenyaluxe”. Then , I thought about something, I can sell that will bring attention to My brand and others. I came up with the idea of Weight Gaining syrup for Small Frame Females/males. I’ve always been a small frame female which inspired me to help others.
Last but not least , I Decided to add on a new project to build my brand even more which was Writing a book that covered a few chapters, I’ve Experienced in my lifetime. It will help many younger age adults in the future be able to overcome any anxiety and/or fear.
What sets me apart from others is having self Confidence , Being kind and Having a strong work ethic Towards my creatives.
I’m most proud Of Myself having the Commitment & Dedication Towards my endeavors.
The main Things I want My followers & fans to know about my work is I Work hard to achieve my goals and always keep a positive Outlook towards my brand. Don’t allow others to project their negativity onto your brand as long as you believe in yourself Don’t give up and you will overcome any negative outlook upon you or your brand.
Is there a particular goal or mission driving your creative journey?
Everyone has a internal, external, Introjected, and/or Self-improvement motivator. which can be symbolic or literal. My Motivation is Intrinsic, which means my motivation Comes from within instead of outside.
What Drives me on my creative journey is the thought of being happy , and enjoying life to the fullest. I think We as People get caught up in just doing Things for the money and not looking at it in a different perspective as like starting something you are Passionate about and enjoy doing that will lead you to that Victory you’ve always Dreamed of. I think any passion/hobby can be profitable just to get you where you want to be.
For Example: I love Making others feel good and as well as helping others on their path to become successful out of their complicated situation.
I enjoy what I do as a Person with a Small business trying to expand Farther. I Am Very Skilled at what I do . I am 100% Consistent & Dedicated on my path to success.
I said to myself “ If you want this brand to go farther than expected , you have to have drive”
I have plenty of Drive in me when it comes to my brand , I’m Very content with building my brand.
I feel as if everybody have a creativity mindset , you just have to find that creative within yourself.
Is there something you think non-creatives will struggle to understand about your journey as a creative?
I think Non-creatives will struggle to understand about my journey as a creator, because they will feel as if they have little or no creativity. But, that’s just a thought if you are looking at it from a negative point of view . I feel as if everyone should takes others Creativity as an inspiration toward your own creative journey. I know others may look in from the inside out and want to know how did she come up with that idea and or what causes her to be so into her brand almost (obsessive).
You have to go within to look further deep into yourself to actually find your gift that you were blessed with and make a goal out of it. Of course not everyone finds their creative side right away believe and trust it takes time to find what drives you to become successful off of your own talents .
Whatever you feel you are passionate about doing , stick with it and trust me you will be happy to give it your all because we know one day our creative will pay off . Everybody has a different timeframe as well
Just because you see someone making profit off of their talent in a quicker way , never let that put you in the state of fear. You want to keep going because you want to stay focused on your passion and give it your all .
I truly believe Everyone can do the same thing , but with your own Creative.
A positive Mindset always start off with a clear thought, and to act on it . Don’t let your creativity pass you by with having that negative impact on yourself . Knowledge is power .
