We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Dr Zylia N Knowlin. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Zylia below.
Dr. Zylia, looking forward to learning from your journey. You’ve got an amazing story and before we dive into that, let’s start with an important building block. Where do you get your work ethic from?
My work ethic comes from my family experiences. It comes from seeing my parents doing their best at any and everything they do. It comes from years of seeing examples of diligence and preservation. My parents showed me that through hard work you can achieve anything.
Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?
I want the world to know my story I want them to see themselves in me. I want people to know that life is hard but it’s worth living. My brand represents my love for my culture, style and academia. It shows the world the best parts of black women.
My brand was made to uplift my people while building an empire for the future generations.
Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
The three skills that were the most impactful in my journey were: the art of speaking, the art of writing, the art of living my authentic life. My advice for you is invest in yourself!
How would you spend the next decade if you somehow knew that it was your last?
I would spend as much time as possible with my loved ones soaking up as many memories as possible, leaving lasting impressions and fostering love within the global community.
