Meet Devonta Denmark

 

We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Devonta Denmark. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Devonta below.

Devonta, so great to have you with us and we want to jump right into a really important question. In recent years, it’s become so clear that we’re living through a time where so many folks are lacking self-confidence and self-esteem. So, we’d love to hear about your journey and how you developed your self-confidence and self-esteem.

It took years of perseverance and growth to get where I am today. Growing up, I was often bullied for being different, and that experience left me shy and withdrawn for many years. It wasn’t until I attended university that I truly began to break free from that mindset and embrace who I am, without worrying about others’ opinions.

The inspiration behind starting the *King* brand came during a time when I didn’t feel confident or worthy. I made a promise to myself: no matter what others think, I would always carry myself with the belief that I am worthy like a King that has a crown on his head. That mindset fueled my determination, boosting my confidence and self-esteem, and helped me overcome the challenges I face daily.

There will always be good days and bad days, but what truly matters is maintaining balance and staying mindful of your mental well-being.

Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?

Currently, I’m focusing on balancing my life while maintaining the businesses that I do have running. As a YouTube gamer, I get to combine my love for storytelling and entertainment with gaming while engaging with an amazing community of players and fans!

Acting for the past two years has been an incredible journey. It’s been fun, challenging, and deeply rewarding. Each role has allowed me to grow as an artist, and I’ve truly enjoyed exploring different characters and stories. Right now, I’m focused on perfecting my craft with acting, until I’m ready to get back on the big screen.

In addition to that, I’ve been working on my travel company Royalty Travel Design, where I design vacation packages & help create unforgettable travel experiences for clients worldwide! It’s so rewarding to help people travel across the world to their favorite destinations. I love getting messages from my clients saying how happy they were. I want my travel company to advocate that anyone can travel in luxury while making it affordable & safe!

In the coming weeks, I have exciting things planned; I officially have a complete release schedule for the gaming channel for the rest of the year 🙂 Can’t wait to talk more about that!

Plus, I will be posting various selections of vacation packages in the upcoming weeks , as well as organizing some group trips that I’ll be apart of for the upcoming year. 🙂

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?

Looking back, I’d say the three qualities that have been most impactful in my journey are perseverance, adaptability, and creativity. Perseverance has been key, especially in industries like Travel, Gaming & Film, where opportunities can take time to come. It’s important to stay focused and not get discouraged when things don’t happen overnight.

Adaptability has also played a huge role in my life, whether it’s shifting between a YouTube gamer, acting in a TV show/Movie, or being a Travel Designer flying across the world; being flexible and open to change has allowed me to grow and thrive in different areas. Lastly, creativity has been essential in everything I do. From acting to designing unique travel experiences, thinking outside the box has helped me stand out.

For those starting their journey, I’d recommend first working on developing resilience. There will be setbacks, but staying committed to your goals is crucial. Also, learn to embrace change; sometimes the best opportunities come from being open to new paths. Lastly, always keep nurturing your creative side. Whether it’s problem-solving or expressing yourself, creativity will give you an edge in whatever field you’re pursuing.

Any advice for folks feeling overwhelmed?

When I feel overwhelmed, I focus on grounding myself and taking a step back to regain clarity. One strategy I use is breaking down tasks into smaller, more manageable tasks. This helps me focus on what I can handle immediately, rather than being overwhelmed by the bigger picture. I also make it a point to take breaks, whether it’s stepping away for a quick walk or doing something I enjoy, like gaming or planning a trip. It helps reset my mind.

For advice, I’d say it’s important to recognize when you need to slow down and give yourself permission to take a break. I took a break from my Youtube channel for 14 months because of I was burn out. It’s important to prioritize your mental and emotional well-being. Another helpful approach is practicing mindfulness or meditation, which can really help you stay calm and present during stressful times. Lastly, don’t hesitate to seek support whether it’s from friends, family, or professionals, having a support system can make a big difference when things get overwhelming.
