We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Ricky Prestige Leverett Jr a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Ricky Prestige, thank you for being such a positive, uplifting person. We’ve noticed that so many of the successful folks we’ve had the good fortune of connecting with have high levels of optimism and so we’d love to hear about your optimism and where you think it comes from.
My optimism comes from within me. It’s rooted in a fundamental belief that my thoughts shape my reality. I firmly subscribe to the notion that positive thoughts yield positive outcomes. That’s my foundation. Moreover, my unwavering faith in the unseen forces of the universe allows me to remain optimistic. I perceive every event in my life, even adversities and setbacks, as opportunities for personal growth and eventual benefit. This perspective sustains my optimism through life’s challenges.
Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?
I am Ricky Prestige Leverett Jr., and I wear many hats in my mission to empower others and share my knowledge and experiences. I am a self-published author four times over, a professional Metaphysical Motivational Speaker, an ordained minister of metaphysics, and a meditation instructor. With a dedicated social media following of over 100,000 people, my goal is to educate an entire generation about the incredible power of the mind.
My journey into the world of metaphysics and self-discovery began with a deep sense that reality held more than what met the eye. Even as a child, I found myself pondering profound questions about the nature of my own existence. Although I faced challenges and temptations that briefly led me astray during my youth, I ultimately recognized that this path was not aligned with my true purpose. This realization led me to pursue higher education, where I studied psychology and embarked on a spiritual journey that went beyond the boundaries of conventional psychology.
Throughout this transformative journey, I discovered the incredible potential of the subconscious mind and the field of metaphysics. I started by sharing my insights through Facebook posts, gradually transitioning to creating videos on spiritual topics. My journey reached a significant milestone in 2020 with the publication of my first book, “Mind Alignment,” followed by three more books, including a workbook and a children’s book. In 2021, I experienced a surge in my impact as I went viral on TikTok, gaining a substantial following. This lead me to begin to have my own sound bath meditation events. We come together and meditate through the power of sound. I love the peace and clarity it brings others.
Not only am I a prominent figure on social media, but I am also an accomplished speaker who has addressed a wide range of audiences, from large corporate gatherings to intimate cultural events. My expertise spans diverse subjects, including mind science, black history, motivation, metaphysics, and psychology.
I’m currently working on my newest book “You Win When You’re Right Within” 22 Keys To Align Your Mind that releases 11/11/2023 . I expanding and focusing on growing my online metaphysical business. We are now offering meditation instructing as well as sound bath sessions.
There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
In my journey, three impactful qualities and skills stand out. Firstly, my intuition, empathy, and expressive voice have allowed me to connect deeply with others, inspiring spiritual motivation. Secondly, my relatability enables me to bridge complex ideas with everyday experiences, fostering meaningful connections. Lastly, my extensive knowledge in metaphysics and spirituality, acquired through years of study, has been transformative.
For those beginning their journey, here’s some advice:
Develop Intuition and Empathy: Trust your instincts and practice empathy through introspection and active listening.
Enhance Communication and Voice: Work on public speaking, articulation, and conveying emotion when addressing audiences.
Cultivate Relatability: Connect personally, share your experiences, and tailor your message to resonate with your audience.
Pursue Knowledge: Dedicate time to continuous learning, attending workshops, reading, and engaging with experts in your chosen field.
Always have faith in the unseen.
Alright, so before we go we want to ask you to take a moment to reflect and share what you think you would do if you somehow knew you only had a decade of life left?
One of the challenges I currently face on my journey is navigating the business aspect of spirituality. While it’s essential to delve into the spiritual aspects of existence, it’s equally crucial to balance our spiritual pursuits with the practicalities of making a living in the physical world. I’m actively working on transitioning my spiritual endeavors into my primary source of income, which requires strategy and unwavering persistence. Although I sometimes yearn for the simplicity of meditating by the ocean and enjoying relaxation, I recognize the importance of fulfilling my mission in this world.
