Meet Navesha Clark | Model & Content Creator

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

Hi Navesha, how has your background shaped the person you are today?
I’m from a small town in Louisiana called Amite City. Growing up in a tight-knit, rural community shaped so much of who I am today. It taught me the value of humility, hard work, and showing up for people — even when no one’s watching. In a place where everybody knows everybody, your character truly speaks louder than anything else.

Being from a small town also made me dream bigger. It pushed me to create opportunities for myself and others who may feel overlooked or boxed in by their environment. My background constantly reminds me to stay grounded, appreciate where I came from, and use my voice to inspire others — especially those who come from places that aren’t always seen or celebrated.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I wear a few hats, but at the heart of it all, I’m passionate about pouring into others — whether it’s through education, fashion, or content creation. I am a former 9th grade ESL English teacher, who taught beginner-level English learners. Every day, I walked into a classroom full of students from different parts of the world, many of whom are navigating a new language and culture for the very first time. It’s not always easy, but it’s incredibly rewarding. I was voted Teacher of the Month, which was such an honor — not just for the recognition, but because it confirmed that the love and patience I poured into my students made a real difference.

What sets me apart is my ability to lead with empathy and purpose, no matter the space I’m in. I got to where I am professionally by refusing to let limitations define me. Coming from a small town in Louisiana called Amite City, I didn’t always see examples of people doing what I dreamed of — so I had to become that example. There were plenty of moments when the road felt heavy, especially juggling teaching, personal growth, and building my own brand. But I leaned into prayer, consistency, and the people who believe in me.

One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned is that your journey doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s. The quiet seasons are just as important as the big wins — they prepare you. I want the world to know that my story is rooted in intention. Whether I’m in a classroom helping a student find their voice or creating content that helps tall women feel seen and confident, everything I do is about representation, empowerment, and showing up as your full self — even when it’s hard.

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?
Day 1 – Welcome Vibes
• Pick-up + Chill Vibes: I’d pick them up from the airport with a little goodie bag of local snacks, then take them straight to a cute Airbnb or hotel downtown.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I definitely have a few people and organizations I’d love to shout out. First, my husband — even while serving in the Army, he continues to push me every single day to go after my dreams, stay focused, and never settle. His strength and support mean everything to me.

I also want to give recognition to my mother’s organization, Buds to Roses. It’s a beautiful community she created where she hosts events to inspire, encourage, and uplift women of all ages. Watching her pour into others with such purpose has been a major influence on how I show up in the world.

Both she and my husband remind me daily that my purpose is bigger than me — it’s about impact, legacy, and love.
