We recently connected with Berly Azor and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Berly, so great to have you on the platform. There’s so much we want to ask you, but let’s start with the topic of self-care. Do you do anything for self-care and if so, do you think it’s had a meaningful impact on your effectiveness?
For self-care, I like to keep things balanced. A big part of my routine is putting on my favorite playlist and dancing around—it’s my way to shake off stress and just have fun. I also start my mornings with a bit of quiet time, like a quick prayer and a few deep breaths, to get centered for the day. I hit the gym regularly, too, because staying active helps keep my energy up.
These little habits keep me grounded and recharged, which means I can be more focused and productive. Taking time for myself makes a huge difference in how I show up for my work, bringing both energy and creativity to everything I do.
Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?
I’m a proud Haitian influencer who was born and raised in Haiti, bringing my culture and heritage into everything I do. Coming to this country, I set out to make something of myself, and I’ve built a platform that celebrates my roots while connecting with a wide audience. My storytelling is deeply inspired by Haitian folklore and the unique blend of mystery and spirituality that I grew up with. My content isn’t just about spooky stories—it’s a way to share my culture, my history, and my experiences with the world.
What truly sets my brand apart is the connection I share with my audience. When people tune in, they’re not just getting a story; they’re getting a piece of Haitian culture and a glimpse into a world filled with rich traditions and legends. My followers feel like they’re right there with me, experiencing the suspense and thrill of each tale. It’s more than entertainment—it’s a cultural experience that resonates deeply with people who crave a little mystery in their day-to-day lives.
As for what’s next, I’m excited to announce that I’m about to launch my own line of merchandise. It’s something I’ve wanted to do for a long time, and I’m thrilled to give my audience a chance to own something that represents our shared love for all things mysterious and cultural. Looking ahead, my ultimate goal is to bring my storytelling to the big screen with a TV show. I envision a show that brings these eerie tales to life with actors, immersive visuals, and the same captivating energy that my followers love. It’s going to be an unforgettable experience, blending my Haitian heritage with storytelling that everyone can enjoy.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
Looking back, I’d say three qualities have been essential in my journey: resilience, cultural pride, and creativity.
1. Resilience: Coming from Haiti and building a life in a new country was challenging, but it taught me the power of perseverance. Resilience is crucial because there will always be obstacles, but learning to stay focused and push through is what keeps you moving forward. My advice? Embrace setbacks as learning moments. They’re opportunities to grow stronger and develop skills that will serve you in every area of life.
2. Cultural Pride: Staying connected to my roots has been vital. My stories and content are deeply influenced by my Haitian heritage, and sharing that with my audience has helped me build an authentic connection. Knowing where you come from gives you a unique perspective, which is invaluable in any field. For those starting out, I’d say: celebrate your background and what makes you different—it’s what will set you apart.
3. Creativity: Creativity has allowed me to bring my ideas to life in ways that resonate with my audience. It’s about thinking outside the box, whether I’m developing content, designing merchandise, or sharing parts of my culture in unique ways. To build creativity, I suggest staying curious and open to inspiration from unexpected places. Let your mind wander, try new things, and don’t be afraid to take risks.
By developing these qualities, I’ve been able to build a brand that reflects who I am, and that’s something I’d encourage anyone to aim for—don’t just chase trends; stay true to yourself, and success will follow.
How can folks who want to work with you connect?
Absolutely, yes! I’m always open to collaborations, as long as there’s fair compensation involved. Whether it’s working with Netflix on exciting content projects, partnering on real estate ventures, or any opportunity that aligns with my brand, I’m here for it. My ultimate goal is to build generational wealth, so I’m all about partnerships that can contribute to that vision. If you’re interested in collaborating on something meaningful and impactful, feel free to reach out—I’d love to see how we can work together to create something lasting.
