We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Dupreea Williams. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Dupreea below.
Dupreea, thanks so much for taking the time to share your insights and lessons with us today. We’re particularly interested in hearing about how you became such a resilient person. Where do you get your resilience from?
Honestly, my resilience comes from my childhood, teen parenthood and struggles. My childhood was rough, I saw my mother grow through so many challenges and struggles. Mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and financially. My mother journey of being a single mother was tough. 6 children, barely any help and being a young adult. Think about the mental and emotional wear and tear she experienced. At the time I could not understand but once I became a teen mother, I started to witness first hand the hardships of not having support with a child. My mental and emotional state was not equipped to nurture a child. I was still reliving trauma from my past, but I had to figure out how to give the love and care to this child and not focus on myself. As time went on, I had to come into the realization that either I sit here and cry about it or I build myself mentally. I had to train myself to not see things worse than they are and not beat myself up in the moments of challenge or hardship. The fact that entrepreneurship choose me I tried to support myself and my children financially in so many ways. Thinking, I know a lot of people this is gonna be easy. Then when it was time for those people to purchase, I was rushed by a big awakening. Your family and friends wont support you first and you have to be okay with that. I was not okay with it! Again building my mentally and emotional strength, listening to successfully people tell their stories. I learned that no matter what is occurring or will occur later I had to become unstoppable and not allow anything outside of me to stop me. I had to program myself to not let things outside of me break me. My inner being has shown me my purpose and vision. So understanding the only thing that is holding me back from my desires are TEMPORARY situations and people. The more I seek guidance from my inner being the more Im unlikely to allow myself to get stuck on things. You have a choice everyday to allow things or people to control your energy. The longer you take to get over or let things go, the longer its gonna take for you to get closer to your goals.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
By far the most impactful quality or skill is having a growth mindset, forgiveness and the belief that it’s not a race. Dont feel like you are in a rush or dont have enough time. Time is an illiuison and yes we have a calendar and clock but those come from society not the divine. The divine gave you the vision of this huge goal, trust that the divine with give you the grace to achieve your goal in divine time. Now that doesnt mean waste ( time ) by not applying action each and everyday. Just dont think or believe you have to do it fast or rushed.
Having a growth mindset is key to limitless life success. everyday your goal should be better than what you were yesterday so always aim to learn something new everyday and never believe that you know enough. The moment you stop growing is the moment you die.
Now FORGIVING is going to help you stay in the flow of endless blessings and peace. Whenever you hold on to something, it lives in your mind rent free and attract more of that energy. so mentally you are held hostage and physically your body feels the weight or heaviness which can cause your immune system to be weaken and add stress to your body.
When you learn to forgive and give people grace it does not mean you have to allow them to keep having access to you. Remove any and everyone who is causing you to not be at peace.
Looking back over the past 12 months or so, what do you think has been your biggest area of improvement or growth?
Self love has truly shown me how important the lack of self love can cause you to unconsciously receive a mixture of things you desire and don’t. I thought I loved myself because I was choosing the be a great person no matter what I was experiencing and without the judgement of others to the point of not allowing certain people to have access to me or even setting boundaries with people I love. I was spreading myself thin but still saying yes. I was helping everyone with their problems, lending my ear for them no matter my current situations. Then I realized when I was depressed, struggling and mentally unstable that no one called to check on me or lended their ear. I was stuck and forced to sit with my problems and figure them out by myself. I didn’t think I would make it out of that space. I couldn’t get out the bed nor did I feel motivated to live. I was drained, tired and empty. I remember I sat up in my bed, crying and asking god to help me. I then got the confirmation to just say thank you AND SPEAK LIFE INTO MYSELF. Only thing I had was self, so I had to learn how to process my feelings/experiences. verbalize myself and journal my desires of who I want to become and show up as.
I was doing the work of self love that may people run from. Everyone talk about treating yourself as self love or taking a bubble bath but what about that mirror work, what about hugging yourself and forgiving yourself for your poor decisions. Its not easy, but I did the work and Im doing better going forward.
