We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Raven Clark a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Raven , thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today Are you happier as a business owner? Do you sometimes think about what it would be like to just have a regular job?

I’m actually very happy as a business owner because I’m able to tap into my true expression, individuality, and bold creativity to heal people that’s viewing my content. I have the freedom to work, post, and view my content through in the day. It is not like having a regular 9 to 5 job where there’s specific timing to clock in and out to work. My business as a content creator I have the freedom to transparent, authentic, and real with my views because content creation as my overall. Versus working a regular job I have shrink, follow rules and regulations, and maintain performance accordingly that company’s vision.

Honestly recently. I have thought about being a business owner is more fitting for me than working a regular job. Currently I am still working a regular 9 to 5 job as a Process Assistant, but it is not aligned with my purpose. Really me working my position as a Process Assistant does not really give me to ability to be authentic in the work environment. Basically, I have to conduct myself in the professional. analytical, conservative, logical, and results driven manner. Then, constantly dealing with favoritism and work politics without any assistance with growing into the company. Being a business owner on the other gives me the chance to be more reflective, disciplined. structured, free spirited, transparent, feminine, calm, spiritual, to guide, and give wisdom to others. A business owner I’m healing myself more by being a healer & guider for others through my content.

Eventually my plan is to move away from a 9-to-5 regular job to expanding myself as a business owner and entrepreneur. I do not condone stagnation of growth especially in career or business. If I have to give myself more than I receive on a job and no promotion, then it’s not aligned. The regular job ran its course. Business owner seems more aligned with my spirit and soul. I will take necessary practical steps to move accordingly.

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

Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?

End of May 2025, I had a concussion from an accident that occurred. I was pain from my head all of the down my legs. The feeling became overwhelmingly worse. My symptoms were dizziness, feeling nauseous, lack of balance, light sensitivity. constant headaches and back pain. My resilience came from going to physical therapy, advocating for myself, giving myself grace when I was feeling good. I’ve worked through my concussion being overly stimulated by music, technology, and could not stand up for long periods of time without feeling dizzy or nauseous. Some days were better than others. At the mid-point of the journey I couldn’t drive because I was feeling nauseous and dizzy while driving. I’ve lack focus as well, but I also maintain to post content regarding my concussion journey and physical therapy. It took 7 months for me to feel better and move normally.

What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?

Unlearning being afraid of the unknown and trust. I was a person who always overthinking, overanalyzing, and being overly critical about self & life situations that’s beyond my control. The back story is that trying to get closure from a person who did not want to provide clarity. This particular person had lied and betrayed me. I was crushed and literally hit rock bottom. It constantly had me going on loops trying to understand why a person changed their mind, and why their attitude was hot/cold with me. It literally created trauma of fear & trust issues.

Now my heart, soul, and spirit are releasing being afraid & fearing of the unknown. I’m learning how to trust life that’s unknown and beyond my control. I’m still a work progress in this process. I will say letting life flow and letting God be in control is the best situation. Also, knowing that goodness and a breakthrough is coming among my side.
