Krystal Hudson shared their story and experiences with us recently and you can find our conversation below.
Good morning Krystal, it’s such a great way to kick off the day – I think our readers will love hearing your stories, experiences and about how you think about life and work. Let’s jump right in? What do the first 90 minutes of your day look like?
I like slow mornings, so the first 90 minutes of my day typically start with meditation and yoga. Something to read to, and I love tea lattes. My day is usually planned as far as what work will need to get done on both the architectural and real estate side of business but by the time I get started I have a clear vision and feel centered which makes work more efficient.
Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
My name is Krystal Hudson. I’m a one stop shop for architectural and interior design, as well as real estate. I help homeowners and investors capitalize on their properties through smart renovations that increase the values of their properties. For homeowners we help you find your dream home or design your dream home custom to your family’s needs. With investors we design/build properties including ADUs, and help create other means of passive income opportunities through real estate.
Great, so let’s dive into your journey a bit more. What part of you has served its purpose and must now be released?
For pretty much my whole life I’ve enjoyed flying under the radar. I haven’t minded being in the background and just getting things done more discreetly. I’ve generated a lot of business and am very appreciate to my clients who I’ve been referred to, as I’ve gotten so much from word of mouth referrals, but I also know that me being too lowkey at times is something that needs to be released. I think I could make the impact that I want to make by stepping outside of my comfort zone and more into the spotlight than I would have previously liked or wanted. I’ve very private and can find ways to maintain my privacy, but I’m going to have to come out of my shell a little more for my next chapter. I think of the impact I’ve had on the people that I have touched and think more people could benefit from wisdom that I’ve learned over the years.
What did suffering teach you that success never could?
Suffering taught me a different perspective on life all together. Mostly helped me see a lot of the people around me clearly. I think it cleanses away a lot of things that are built on a rocky foundation, including the parts of your life where you’re not living in your truth. I realized I didn’t genuinely enjoy a lot of things I was doing, but was mostly caught up in the hustle and bustle of life. For me suffering made me slow down and get a lot more intentional about every aspect of my life.
I think our readers would appreciate hearing more about your values and what you think matters in life and career, etc. So our next question is along those lines. Where are smart people getting it totally wrong today?
I think a lot of smart people get it wrong when they confine their knowledge to textbooks they’ve been taught in school. There’s a whole world and a lot of people who you can run into that you can learn from. People that I’ve met that are only book smart get things wrong all the time because they’ve put themselves in a box with regards to who and what they’re willing to learn from. People who are a student of life itself typically learn from anything and everything.
Okay, so before we go, let’s tackle one more area. When do you feel most at peace?
I feel the most at peace in nature. I usually feel the most in awe when I’m in nature also. I meditate a lot near bodies of water but really anywhere that feels calming to me.
