We had the good fortune of connecting with Gkeyah Parker and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Gkeyah, what’s the most important lesson your business/career has taught you?
A missed opportunity is worse than a failed attempt. Taking a risk can and is scary. If you fail the first time you learn from it to perfect it the next time. You keep trying until you succeed. You never know what the turnout may be if you completely miss the opportunity.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
I am the owner of Infernofit which is a small fitness and lounge apparel company for women. We take pride in having affordable prices and great quality compared to our competitors. Seeing people enjoy our brand gives me the most excitement and joy.

The process was not easy and still isn’t easy. With the help from our amazing team is the biggest reason we are where we are. The pandemic was a tremendous set back for us but we prevailed in the end.

Major lesson that was learned is patience. It may not happen as fast as you want it to but it will happen. I want the world to know that we’ are a company worth trying.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Bellaire! Hmart to be specific. It has a wide range of Asian cuisines, restaurants, shopping centers, and cafes. The hmart on Blalock is a combination of grocery store and restaurants. I highly recommend stopping by Yori-Yori.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Without the help of my team Infernofit would not be where it is today. Our team consists of so many people from our models, packaging, ambassadors, photographers, and social media manager.

I would like to take this time to recognize our photographer Jonathan Sorto, our packaging manager Tamika Smith, our models Alize, Biridiana, Ca’Mari, Ire, Jalishia, Melissa, Natalie, and Takiya.

I would also love to give a shout out to all the brand ambassadors and people who support our business.
