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

Hi Bj, have you ever found yourself in a spot where you had to decide whether to give up or keep going? How did you make the choice?
One key factor on when you know to keep going. Purpose: Long as what you’re doing serves purpose for you, makes you feel like you’re making a difference. You have to know when to apply, adjust and regroup but… making those decisions dont make you want to stop, it makes you want it even more. That’s the sign to keep pushing.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Im an artist of many forums. Literature, music, visuals, culture and fashion. I set myself apart from others in the light of, negativity is not tolerated. What makes me make you better and vise versa! Are we pulling the best out of this or making it worse? I enter all spectrums with this POV. Capitalize on being and doing rather than taking and expecting. My journey is full of lessons, teachings and goal setting. My success comes from believing in me, showing myself the worth of my skills and sharing them with those who want it. Professionally, aligning what i see with those who actually do it., Cause and effect, analytical and research and development. Easy no, worth it… YES! Challenges are what makes the achievements more than worth the obstacles. I have purpose and appreciation. I have a will to fulfill! I have determination to see things through and that’s the blueprint. Along with being stubborn and refusal to quit! Lessons learned: Someone is always watching so give them a show! Your biggest support are those who know nothing about you but are interested in everything you do. Lastly, love it like it is, growth is inevitable so changes are automatic! Just love it like it is and it’ll blossom into what it’s suppose to be! What i want the world to know about me, the brand and story: It’s a story, a brand and a person that resonates with self identification. I am what I represent, my life is transparent to what I’ve experienced and this brand is a representation of you and where you were, are or going in life positively!

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Hey best friend! First we’re gong to get some peace of mind (at a park take in some air, sun, and sights for memories) then we’ll eat (a lot) as we shop throughout the city, bar hop at downtown Atlanta. Feel the vibe of the city under the influence of life! Catch a movie in Conyers Ga, and somewhere in between there hit the gym. to say it wasn’t all fun and games! Experience different cultures of the south.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I have to give appreciation to the city of Atlanta in it’s entirety! As this journey has taken me for so. many ups and downs, I’ve met so many people who appreciate what I do and how I represent them in the culture! I speak for people, people who love to love, experience and share the positive in them with others who want, need and appreciate good vibes and energy. Family, friends, lovers, especially the lovers… Without the appreciation of the one’s who love me mentally, physically and emotionally, it would’nt feel as good as it does! Thank you all for sharing, caring, supporting and wanting to be apart of me!
