We had the good fortune of connecting with KreShai (Houston’s Favorite BBW) Patt and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi KreShai (Houston’s Favorite BBW), is there something that you feel is most responsible for your success?
The most important factor behind my success personally is my DRIVE! As in how I motivate myself to keep pushing daily. It takes ALOT of dedication, creativity & most of all Confidence. my confidence overall made my success. Everyone doesn’t have the confidence and courage to really chase their dreams and whatever EVERYTHING it takes to achieve it.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
Well to start, food is an art and so is creating content. I start selling food in 2016 after losing my job. And honestly I didn’t ever think it would lead me to be a content creator and BBW role model in this industry. It’s not an easy job. Especially when it’s not exactly what you planned on doing. Sometimes things happen, especially when you are blessed. None of this was simple, as a chef I wasn’t the most confident in myself just my ability to cook, doing content actually helped me before more confident all the way around. And because of the struggles most women of my size face, a lot of women started to enjoy my confidence and dedication which only added another title to my brand. I learned so much along the way especially about how respectable being true to yourself is in this industry. I did have a lot of personal challenges as well. Some days when I don’t always feel my best, I do feel the pressure because I do now have a image to uphold and I have fans and people who look up to me so sometimes it’s stressful but I do love it. Something I want people to always know about me is that my work ethic is TOP TIER. The sky is the limit with me and it shows !

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
My personal Favorite HOUSTON hangouts of 2023 lol we have to say that because things change fast.

Food: taste bar / lost and found
Bar/ club : Parma, cru & the address

I love axe throwing , drunk bowling, the escape room

Honestly HOUSTON is so big it’s so many things you can do.

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, The crazy part is I didn’t start my journey along. The dream Was abandoned. i chose to keep it alive. My biggest supporter was always my Mom & Grandmother. They pushed me
To never quit. And true child hood experiences I do vow to be the person to give them everything they deserve, God willing ofcourse. There were a few people along the way that played big parts in leading me down bigger paths but ultimately I did 95% of all this alone.
There were a few people that assisted, mentored or helped me along the way but most things only are seasonal. The drive to get it done with or without help came from me and my main support system.
