We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Tehsuan Glover. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Tehsuan below.
Tehsuan, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Can you talk to us about how you learned to do what you do?
I had the good fortune to be taught so many of the things that I do now from people who gave freely. I’ve also had the good sense to aim myself up, and place myself in line for opportunities to grow. If I knew then what I know now, I would have been a savage about creating more teachers, guides, and mentors for my interests and endeavors. I would have partnered up more, and taken advantage of the proximity of those more advanced that I. I think healthy humility, curiosity, and being competitive with myself were incredibly essential in my experiences. Most usually, limiting beliefs were all that ever stood in the way of me learning more.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
There are way more people who have no idea who I am, or what I do or have done, and many of the people who do know me often tell me that they still don’t quite know what I DO. I like it that way. I have some creative capabilities like writing, photography, brand strategy, engaging people, and building community.
I publish a news media site, thenewarktimes.com, focused on the many incredible things that are happening all the time in Newark, NJ. I also shoot photography (portrait, events, editorial) and that gives me a really fun and interesting way to engage people and connect with them silently.
I’m most proud of the creation of Nina’s All Naturals, a lifestyle and wellness brand. The brand emphasizes the use of toxin-free, 100% natural ingredients, ensuring each product is both effective and safe for all skin types. The products are designed to provide a luxurious self-care experience, leaving the skin feeling soft, nourished, and radiantly healthy.
Any resources you can share with us that might be helpful to other creatives?
I wish I knew about how accessible grants are, especially in times of economic downturn! Literally, there’s free money made available for small business owners to do what we are already doing! Sometimes, I think we allow ourselves to be small-minded and only focus on revenue coming from the “cash register”.
What do you think helped you build your reputation within your market?
I think reputation is an echoing of personal experience and observation. What’s helped me build my reputation has been an understanding that I am constantly being experienced and observed. Even after I’m no longer in the room. Social media is evidence of that. Embracing that understanding has been really helpful.
