Meet Asia Little | Humanitarian, Healer, Writer and Business Owner

We had the good fortune of connecting with Asia Little and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Asia, what inspires you?
I am inspired by the odds of life. The odds of life for me means defining how I view my failures, setbacks and shortcomings. I’ve always been someone who has been very ambitious and motivated about my journey and speaking first hand my journey has been a lot of LOSS but I have always given myself grace, time and compassion because it is not easy to always persevere after life has beaten you down, once is okay you feel “oh, I can do this”, I can recover heal and move forward, but when you continue to experience loss, heartache and grief you eventually feel you have to settle and expect a life in return of those experiences. I am currently learning to inspire myself by renewing my subconscious mind and tell myself, yes, this is what life has shown me but if I can take 10 percent out of the 90 percent from the experiences and find hope in them, I have won. Therefore, I am inspired by my strength, I have always considered myself a wounded warrior because I have fallen deeply in life but my strength to always come back to myself and never give up on myself is what inspires me on my journey in life. I inspire Asia, you should always be your number one inspiration.

To be completely honest, I am still in complete shock that I have started my own business, the past two years of my life have been very eye opening and changing for me mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I went through a revelation and that has lead me here, although I am labeled as a business owner I see myself a part of a community, I want to feel connected with my costumers on a personal level, I want them to feel every ounce of love, healing, sorrow, sadness, happiness, strength and joy that I have experienced and transmuted into my products because My Journey Is Healing Shop is not focused on the destination but the journey back to self. How do we return home to ourselves after being knocked down by life? The journey of coming home to ourselves after we’ve experienced any form of grief, loss, or pain. when someone disappoints us, hurt us, we have all experienced loss right? one way or another, life is about loss, but it is also how we deal with loss and how get up, how we learn and cope with our loss. It teaches us to allow ourselves to experience the uncertainty of tomorrow, life is unpredictable, and, in a way, I am so glad that it is, the past two years, I have dedicated myself to a lot of shadow work, healing my inner child and facing my abandonment wounds. My Journey Is Healing Shop is a way I have decided to give myself flowers for the past couple of years I have dedicated myself to healing, spiritual growth, emotional and mental healing. Throughout my life, I have endured a lot of trials and tribulations, a lot of grieving, pain, and loss, but the inner healer in me has given me the strength to tell my story and be a healer to others and myself. Therefore, speaking my thought process behind starting my own business was to find the inner strength in myself and keep going, to know that I am so much stronger than my pain and that I am forever healing, to be a guiding light and strength for someone who has not found their inner strength in themselves yet.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?

I am currently an undergraduate in college, I intend to get my doctoral degree in psychology and become a licensed child psychologist. As someone who has been on a healing journey for an exceptionally long time, and I base my entire business around My Journey Is Healing because that is my passion to help others on their healing journey. I believe it is important to believe in yourself and what truly brings out the best in you, in life you will find that one thing that will bring you the most euphoria feeling, It will calm your spirit even in your darkest hours and for me that is doing the work to heal myself. I say never left go of that feeling and to always hold it close in your heart, nurture it and cherish it. That is how I feel about my passion for helping others through their healing journey.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I am very much a homebody; I find the comfort of my own home especially the holidays. I prefer to be at home, but if I had a friend visiting some local spots, I’d like to take them
to would be Barnes and noble because I love to read, as a kid, it was always a tradition
of my mother’s to take my brother and I to Barnes and noble every month and we’d pick
out a book to read. It was the nostalgia of these traditions that have gravitated me
towards a quest for wisdom through books. The excitement of never knowing what was
next on the page is what I look forward to.
The second is the spa, the spa is my person self-care day pampering. However, I think
it is so important to corporate nurturing yourself as much as possible and why not spend
that time with your tribe. I am very fortunate enough to have a soul family who enjoys
similar interest as I do such as going to the museum, picnic days in the park, hiking and
spending time with mother nature. If it involves animals, nature, and food, I AM THERE.
The third option would be a New York Jets Game! I am a huge Jets fan and that has
been my team since 2001. I love football and sports itself.
To conclude, you can expect to spend a lot of time with me exploring the world.
Traveling and being one with the universe.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
The Owner of Muffy’s Juice. Tashana Taylor Black Owned Business She is a leader in her own community, I have watched her
create a movement of wealth, women empowerment, and health through educating
people in her community to take care of their vessel. Her focus is wellness but through
her understanding of self, she knows wellness must start from the inside first. I have
been following her journey for quite some time now and so amazed at her ambition and
radiant spirit. She is someone I admire and look too for women empowerment. I am
looking forward to working with her soon with my business to raise the vibration on
mother earth and shifting the frequency to remind people we are all healers within, and
your vessel is the greatest gift you can give to humanity. It must start with self and
Muffy’s Juice has taught me this. Healers come in all forms, and it is important to
remember we must allow ourselves to be taught. Thank you, Muff for teaching me how
to honor my vessel from within. You are appreciated, and I am giving you your flowers.
