We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Kay Reed a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Kay , we’re so appreciative of you taking the time to share your nuggets of wisdom with our community. One of the topics we think is most important for folks looking to level up their lives is building up their self-confidence and self-esteem. Can you share how you developed your confidence?
Honestly realizing that everyone is flawed no matter how much outside beauty that exude & that no one’s opinion of me really matters because at the end of the day everything is fake. Realizing that everything that is glorified in the media doesn’t take away from who I am as a person & that’s what helped me gain & keep the self-esteem that I have today. You always have to believe you’re one of a kind no matter what this world throws in front of you & you’ll always prevail.
Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?
When I first started this journey at the end of 2018, I didn’t know what I wanted to do other than show the world who Kelia Reed was. Now in 2023 I am realizing that the words I speak really do touch people & it’s only from being myself & always no matter what speaking my truth. I see the world in a more realistic light & most people can relate & that has helped me grow fast on each platform I’ve ever started. I don’t know what I want to do but I do know that I want it to impact the world in a good eye opening way. Please stay tuned, I’m just getting started.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
Heartbreak & life experiences very early on in life have gotten me to where I am today. I use to be so naïve & trusting of the wrong people and each time a lesson was learned and never forgotten. I started to stop making excuses for people & myself as well because people know very well what they are doing. Once I started doing that I started really seeing things & people for what it is & that helped me navigate better in life to not repeat my past run ins or mistakes. I want to let people know that they aren’t alone, I too have been through many of things that should’ve stopped me a long time ago but every test is a lesson & things do get better. If you’re working towards anything NO MATTER WHAT stick to it, everything pays off in due time but if you give up that’s when you fail.
Any advice for folks feeling overwhelmed?
When I feel overwhelmed I honestly take a nap or have a crying session but then I get back to figuring out a solution. I’ve never been one to soak in misery because that can lead to a deep dark hole that some never make out. I’ve always been one to NEVER let anything stress me out & I don’t think I ever will. Life is to precious to let anything on this earth overwhelm you so cheer up, you’ve got this !!!
