We had the good fortune of connecting with ShaDestinie Gordon and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi ShaDestinie, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
When it comes to risk I think of risk as a gamble . It’s a chance I will make it and a chance I won’t , but within taking this risk I’ll give it all I have . Taking risk has played a major role in my life. I often times find myself in my head more than I am here on earth so to get out of my head and say okay I’m about to put this play in motion put the work in . Taking risk has changed my life/career tremendously had I not taking the risk in many instances I wouldn’t be where I am today. This first step is to believe you can and you will .
Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
What sets me apart from others is just me simply being myself . Often Imitated, Never Duplicated. I got where I am business wise because despite any obstacle I face I’m always telling myself you have to keep going , push through you weren’t brought this far to give up now . It has not been easy I’m always in my head so when certain things don’t workout at that moment I’d sike myself out getting out of my head honestly the hardest part. I overcame this by speaking affirmations over myself daily , reminding myself of where I started compared to where I am now and that’s usually all the push I need . I’ve learned that you have to put in the work you can’t expect anything to be handed or given to you . You’ll literally have to dig deep and pull out the beast in you and go for it . I want the world to know that I’ll never stop trying to be better everyday I’m working to be better than I was the day before . I want them to know that dreams do come true and as long as you put your mind to it you can come back from and accomplish anything .
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.
Here’s my line up for food/drinks & things to do .
Murals in Houston Art Walk
Lost & Found
Herman Memorial Park/Trail (I love nature)
Downtown to Ride Scooters
Those are just a few , for me I love reggae music so it’d be cool to find a little juke spot , I love nature so anything to do with outside depending on the weather .
Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
First and Foremost without God what am I ? There’s so many people who’s played major roles in my becoming. To give thanks to just one specific I don’t think I’d be able to . So I’m just going to say major shoutout to the ones genuinely in my corner , the ones genuinely rooting for my success . To my children thanks for the extra push daily without you’ll I am nothing .
