Meet Queen Pedii

Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Queen Pedii. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Hi Queen , 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?

I developed my confidence and self esteem through writing, learning voice and piano and other creative outlets. Writing gave me a way to write down my emotions whether it be a poem, song, stories etc. Singing helped me get over my anxiety of speaking in front of large crowds.

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?

I was born in Washington, DC and briefly in VA. I am Muslim. I come from a family of entertainers, authors, and creatives. I have always loved to entertain and would come up with my own shows at home. I was taught singing and piano by Mrs. Bernice Hammond and Jamila Hogan at the Northeast Academy of Dance. I am an entrepreneur, singer/songwriter, author and podcast host. My debut album Thoughts of a Mad Woman will be released February 2025. I also recently launched my vegan nail polish line IW Enchanted Nail Polish.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?

First would absolutely be empathy, second would be being able to communicate emotions and turn them into outlets for different creative venues and lastly just being a genuine human being. My advice is to do a lot of meditation to really get to know yourself. Don’t be afraid to be by yourself. It’s okay to care about others and to try to help instead of hurting each other. If people can’t appreciate who you are then find people who will.

Before we go, any advice you can share with people who are feeling overwhelmed?

I meditate a lot. I will usually put on New Blue Sun and Lil Jon Total Meditation & Manifest Abundance. I like to listen to music or talk and play with my ESA. I also will write down how I feel in a journal or just sit in silence. If I want to have a little bit of fun I will play The Sims 4.
