Meet Sennika pressley

We recently connected with Sennika Pressley and have shared our conversation below.

Hi Sennika, really happy you were able to join us today and we’re looking forward to sharing your story and insights with our readers. Let’s start with the heart of it all – purpose. How did you find your purpose?

The way I found my purpose is noticing how I put my all into my work. The anticipation of getting your customers/supporters reaction when you release new work. Finding your purpose is a major part of life and many people do not like talking about the many failures it took to get to your full potential.

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

My first brand is called Trap Denim. I customize jackets, shoes, skateboards and etc. The joy of being able to paint my customers vision on a item gives me walking canvas in different places.

My second brand is Channel Orangeburg pop up shop and Creatives & Cocktails. They’re two events I have in the past three years. Channel Orangeburg pop up shop is for upcoming and established entrepreneurs to sure their products. Creatives & Cocktails is a network event for fellow entrepreneurs and new entrepreneurs to network and gain more business insights as well as new opportunities. I am in the works on planning another event in South Carolina and possibly Georgia.

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?

The 3 things that were most impactful in my journey were:

Research
Patience
Consistency

The best advice I can give people that are in their early journey is remain true to yourself. Do not let anyone talk you out of your vision. Remember it is alway room to keep learning new techniques. Definitely keep up with the trends to add your own twist to it.

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

When I feel overwhelmed I usually meditate, pray, and listen to music. But my number one strategy is finding one of my favorite comfort movies to watch and unwind a little.
