Meet Floyd Hope

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

Hi Floyd, 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 learned in life that people will hate you for some reason regardless, so be you and enjoy the life you live

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

Well, I have a podcast called “DA KIKBACK”, it’s a space where real stories meet real strength. I sit down with people who’ve faced the odds, pushed through the struggle, and came out stronger on the other side. I discuss mental health, depression, self care and other issues with our community to help inform them and find resources if need be.

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, the three skills that helped me was patience, faith and determination. What advice would I have to offer would be to trust yourself, understand it won’t be easy, and that you will be tested to see how dedicated you are to achieve this success.

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

When I feel overwhelmed, I go to my garden outside, and talk to God, I release all my stress and anxiety there. I might cry, I might laugh, but I will sit out there until I get that feeling that tells me it’s ok Floyd, let’s get back to the mission at hand. Advice I would give would be to try meditation, yoga is great or talk to a friend you trust and that will listen
