I would like to introduce you all to Kianna Studstill! She is a Podcaster and Mental Health Advocate/Coach. Recently, I received the opportunity to interview her! Check it out below!

Where are you from?

I’m from the beautiful city of Orlando, Fl.

What inspired you to become an entrepreneur?

I was inspired to become an entrepreneur because I wanted to create something that’s all my own. I’ve always been my own person and followed my own voice. Entrepreneurship gives me the opportunity to use my voice and make a difference.

Tell us about the work that you do, and what’s your why?

I’m a podcaster and mental health advocate/coach. My why is simple: I’ve dealt with mental health issues my whole life and wasn’t aware of them until my suicide attempt at 21 or 22 years old. Unmasking all that was deep within me made me want to learn more and to help others receive the help they need. I use holistic practices to treat the person as a whole.

What challenges have you been met with while maneuvering entrepreneurship, and how did you overcome?

My biggest issue with entrepreneurship is navigating my social anxiety and overthinking. I have to constantly remind myself of my strengths and virtues to have the confidence to speak and maneuver with different people and situations.

In those moments when it gets hard, how do you manage to keep going?

My spiritual practices are the only thing that keeps me going in any situation. I pray, meditate, say words of affirmation, and more. God (my source) is my strength. It reminds me that life is not just my own, and we are all here to be part of a much bigger plan. Through faith, I know that no matter what, I’m on the right path. So I pause, breathe, and keep going!

When it comes to women, our women’s community, what would you like to see more of?

I want to see us come together without any judgement or prejudice. No more calling each other these foul names that the media has made popular and get back to a true “it takes a village” lifestyle.
