We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Oshea Jackson. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Oshea below.

Alright, Oshea thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Let’s talk legacy – what sort of legacy do you hope to build?

I want to build a legacy for me, forget about the others. I want people to know that I was a person who never cared about what anyone had to say about me and that even though times got rough, and they were really rough, I persevered. this life thing is truly what you make it, and what defines you is how you create the life that you’ve been gifted. for me, I want people to remember me most as a star on earth, an arch angel amongst angels because in my point of view everyone is an angel.

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

O’shea is a model, not a lot has changed honestly in the last year except my physical appearance. I remember saying in the last interview I did with voyage “if my outfit doesn’t make the cut, my face always will”, this time around everything about me will always make the cut. what I’ve learned is that the model is only as good as their comfortability in themselves, and what they’re wearing. Ive taken time in the past year to work on my appearance completely. I focused on my body, my style, and most importantly my mental. all those things play a part in being comfortable, comfort is better than confidence. to be honest I think that all those things also set me apart from others, if you want to go more into detail than my face alone sets me a part from others, I’m a very beautiful creature. my brand is my face, and my scent. if I wanted to brag then id say that no one has ever told me anything bad about the way I smelled or looked, but that’s normal for me.

Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson?

I had to learn confidence. growing p I learned how be confident in a way that it turned very heavily egotistical. being egotistical is the worst thing on earth because you’ll never be able to be corrected. from experience when you think that everything you’re doing is correct and then your corrected, than it hurts your ego and your pride. ego’s and pride are killers amongst this generation.

For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?

the best aspect of being a creative is creating things that no one has ever created before. only creatives will understand what I just said. whenever I create something new it makes me feel like I can do everything I’ve always wanted to do.
