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

Hi DAVIDA, how do you think about risk?
Risks are always perceived as something bad. On the contrary life is all about risks! The choice to decide whether to take the risk or not is yours. Taking a risk got me my real estate license. Somehow along the way I found the courage many women before me had to take that risk. And now, I’m a licensed Real estate agent!

What should our readers know about your business?
Currently I’m a Realtor in Houston, TX! And nothing about the process was easy. I spent long nights taking notes, reading, and listening! Now that I look back it was worth it. That was a risk of time, sacrifice, and money.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
My current city has amazing nightlife. However, Brunch is a big thing, I would take my best friend to brunch first. Then scroll through Herman Memorial Park to walk off the brunch. There is always a host of events to attend on the weekend. So I’d take her/him to a comedy show during the week and most definitely sightseeing. Dinner Wednesday and also a nightclub for dancing Thurs nights. Tex Mex and shopping at the Galleria on Friday.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Honestly I’m always contributing any success I have to my grandmother. No one has taught me more. It’s kind of hard not to when she took time out of her life to raise me. Outside of my grandmother I’d have to shoutout Bishop TDJakes! I’ve never met him. I would love to. He really help me learn about myself through his sermons. I really took those sermons to heart! I mean like I was actually there. I would sit in the dark and rock my daughter and listen. Sing and Praise for hours sometimes. I used those moments to heal. I found listening to him and reading his books and listening to audibles that I needed to change. The man is powerful and everybody who knows me knows I love the Bishop. My daughters thought he was God for a long time! Lol! I can’t make that up!
