We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Tearea Turner. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Tearea below.
Hi Tearea, appreciate you sitting with us today to share your wisdom with our readers. So, let’s start with resilience – where do you get your resilience from?
At my core, my resilience is fueled by a desire to create meaningful change. I view every setback as an opportunity to learn, grow, and come back stronger.
A friend once shared a quote with me: “Fear and doubt cannot share the same space as faith and abundance.” This mantra has become a guiding principle in my life, reminding me to trust in possibilities and lean into courage, even in uncertainty. The ebbs and flows of life shaped by faith and values, have instilled in me strength to stand firm, no matter the challenges.
Professionally, I’ve learned that resilience isn’t just about overcoming obstacles it’s about finding opportunities within them. Leading teams, navigating high-stakes projects, and working with marginalized communities have taught me to stay calm under pressure, pivot when necessary, and remain focused on long term goals.
Appreciate the insights and wisdom. Before we dig deeper and ask you about the skills that matter and more, maybe you can tell our readers about yourself?
I’m an entrepreneur driven by creativity, purpose, and a dedication to making a change in everything I do. My passion lies in leveraging my skills, network, and resources to support and serve each client. Since 2014, I’ve embraced the entrepreneurial journey, taking on diverse ventures from owning an adult care home, teaching holistic wellness, producing documentaries, developing products, and working as a licensed natural stylist.
Under my brand Te’Shea, which serves as the umbrella for all aspects of my business, I specialize in business development, product development, strategic planning, and funding acquisition. Over the past two years, I have consulted for major nonprofits and for-profit businesses, securing funding, transforming business ideas from inception to execution, and streamlining complex systems to identify and resolve inefficiencies. In 2020, I also launched Te’Shea Oils, a product brand featuring an all-natural hair growth oil, body oil, and beard oil, intentionally designed to meet the needs of its audience with care.
I am most excited about the rebuilding and rebranding of Te’Shea, making sure that impact and community remain at the core of everything I do and create. Additionally, I am focused on and excited about renewable clean energy, working to educate BIPOC businesses and underserved communities on actionable steps to build a more sustainable and equitable world.
In hindsight, my career has been anything but conventional. Friends often joke that I’ve lived many lives, but the common thread through all my endeavors is a deep commitment to fostering growth in both businesses and people.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
Looking back, three qualities that have profoundly shaped my journey are determination, adaptability, and authenticity. These traits have fueled my drive to overcome significant challenges with a clear focus on my goals, empowered me to thrive across diverse roles and industries, and guided me in building genuine relationships that create meaningful impact, all while staying true to my purpose.
For those just starting out, my advice is simple be bold and be brave. Say yes to opportunities, even if the timing doesn’t feel perfect. Show up as your authentic self because the world needs what makes you unique. Never allow anyone to dim your brilliance and trust that everything happens for your ultimate good and is part of crafting the remarkable journey you’re destined to have.
Looking back over the past 12 months or so, what do you think has been your biggest area of improvement or growth?
My biggest area of growth over the past 12 months has been focusing on myself personally. As entrepreneurs, it’s easy to put our personal lives on hold while pouring everything into our businesses. This year, I made a conscious decision to prioritize my personal goals and create a life centered in peace and fulfillment. I’ve carved out time for self-care, pursued hobbies I’ve always wanted to explore, and set boundaries to maintain balance. This intentional shift in prioritizing my well-being has not only enriched my personal life but has also positively impacted my professional endeavors. It’s been a transformative journey, and I’m proud of the peace and growth I’ve cultivated.
