Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Severine Rigaud. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Severine, thanks so much for taking the time to share your insights and lessons with us today. We’re particularly interested in hearing about how you became such a resilient person. Where do you get your resilience from?
From an early age, I have been captivated by the world of artistic expression, immersing myself in a variety of forms such as sketching, coloring, and painting.
My creative journey has been deeply influenced by my extensive travels, which have exposed me to diverse cultures and artistic traditions. These experiences have served as a wellspring of inspiration, with beautiful and unique artworks encountered along the way igniting my creative imagination and enriching her artistic vision.
My work is characterized by my use of warm hues and empowering statements, each piece imbued with a sense of optimism and encouragement.
Through my art, I seek to transmit a powerful message to the world:
Follow your dreams, no matter the obstacles, and let your creativity shine.
Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?
As a multi-entrepreneur, I strive to make a meaningful impact on the world. Whether through my artistic endeavors, business expertise, or innovative concepts, my life’s mission is to foster creativity and creation.
I’m thrilled to announce the upcoming inauguration of ELIKYA Studio, my latest venture, dedicated to constructing versatile detached spaces tailored to any lifestyle. This exciting event will take place on October 11 from 4-7pm EST at Curiosity Lab in Peachtree Corners, which is home to our inaugural commercial studio.
In addition to my business pursuits, I am also in the process of writing a book about my life journey, exploring how my upbringing has shaped me into the entrepreneur I am today. Reflecting on my experiences, I hope to inspire my children to embrace their unique paths and pursue their own dreams.
Art serves as my refuge, allowing me to unwind and immerse myself in my aspirations. With boundless creativity and a heart full of passion, the possibilities are limitless.
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?
– Traveling the world has provided me with a profoundly diverse perspective on life.
– My father has always been a source of inspiration, embodying strength and resilience; I wish he were still here with us today.
– I possess an unwavering determination; even when faced with challenges that make me consider giving up, I persist. This is arguably one of my greatest attributes.
I believe in recognizing your worth and never questioning your abilities. This is the advice I would offer to anyone.
What was the most impactful thing your parents did for you?
Move to the Congo RDC, in Africa when I was 6 years old.
