We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Eugeniia Gul. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Eugeniia below.
Hi Eugeniia, 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?
My resilience is deeply rooted in my upbringing, my home country, and the challenging circumstances I faced while growing up. I was forced to assume adult responsibilities at a very young age, beginning to earn a living when I was just 13 years old. At 20, I embarked on a journey of immigration all on my own, without command of the language and without the safety net of financial stability or emotional support. In those trying times, all I had were myself, my dreams, and my ability to think critically and analyze situations at a profound level, which I believe stems from my childhood experiences. Lacking role models while growing up, I observed others and analyzed what made them unique and successful, striving to incorporate those qualities into my own life. I did have some celebrity role models, many of whom resided in the United States, which had always been a dream country for me since childhood. I achieved that dream, and despite encountering discrimination based on my origins from time to time, it doesn’t faze me.
I recognize that everything I’ve achieved and possess wasn’t handed to me on a silver platter – I’ve earned it. So, when I encounter comments about my accent or other aspects of my background, it doesn’t diminish my self-worth. Rather, it saddens me for those who express such insecurity in my presence because, in reality, most of them wouldn’t have the strength to immigrate to Ukraine, learn Ukrainian, and host events and red carpets. It takes toughness and resilience, and this, I believe, is my superpower. While I may project an angelic blonde exterior, rest assured, there’s a warrior within me that no one would willingly engage in an argument with.
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?
Over the past five years, I’ve had the privilege of being a part of the red carpet scene, serving as an MC and a red carpet host at various events, including fashion shows, film festivals, beauty pageants, and corporate gatherings. I find genuine joy in conducting interviews on the red carpet, as it provides a unique opportunity to connect with individuals and uncover their inspirational journeys of success. I aim to create an engaging and comfortable environment during these interactions, ensuring those I interview feel at ease. For those individuals who possess extraordinary insights and captivating stories, I delve deeper through one-on-one interviews. This allows me to unearth the invaluable secrets to their success and the art of building a distinctive personal brand.
It brings me immense satisfaction to share the wisdom and knowledge I gather from these remarkable individuals with a broader audience, spreading the inspiration and insights from the talented people I’ve had the honor of meeting at these prestigious events.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
Looking back, it’s evident that nurturing your personal brand and projecting confidence are fundamental elements in the path to success. Embracing your authentic self and recognizing your intrinsic value are essential. Striking the right balance in your interactions, neither overly assertive nor excessively flirtatious, is a valuable skill to master.
With seven years of experience in hosting, including five years in the USA, I can confidently say that practice truly does lead to perfection. In fact, practice is the road to perfection. Thus, I consider self-belief and continuous self-improvement as indispensable keys to success. Along my journey, I’ve enrolled in numerous impactful classes, including those in public speaking led by SoniaMPower and leadership courses like “Discover Your True North,” which provide a concrete and comprehensive program for becoming an authentic leader and charting your path to leadership success. These courses have left a significant mark on my growth, and I’m now fortunate to pass on these skills to others.
Additionally, I lead group coaching sessions for women, where we collaboratively set and work toward personal and financial freedom goals. Every month, I host a two-day wealth retreat outside of LA, offering a transformative experience that includes powerful exercises like the Transformational Money Games and more. During this retreat, I guide women in redefining their financial and business journeys. I also provide a two-month mentorship program for those seeking a transformative journey. In my view, personal growth is an ongoing process, and by continually investing in yourself, you’ll undoubtedly witness remarkable progress.
How can folks who want to work with you connect?
Absolutely, I’m actively seeking individuals who are interested in joining forces to create a dream team! My vision involves hosting a talk show where I interview successful entrepreneurs and figures from the entertainment industry, delving into the hidden secrets of their success. These interviews will explore deeper psychological aspects, such as self-growth and childhood traumas, with the aim of inspiring others to take charge of their own leadership and personal growth journey. I’m keen to connect with like-minded individuals who resonate with this mission and want to contribute to my exciting new project. If this resonates with you and you’d like to work together, please reach out – I’d love to hear from you!
