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

Hi Janea, what role has risk played in your life or career?
Risk was once a tough pill to swallow until I rephrased it as “faith” doing so strengthened my relationship with God and my conscience of being; with this I’ve learned things that are meant for me shall be, I am not discouraged by any results i know the posssible outcome is worth the wait for my career and progress.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I enjoying motivating others, writing quotes to motivate others. I usually overcome challenges by writing I’m currently working on a book right now, a lot of lessons I’ve learned along the way is always be true to what makes you, you. I would love the world to know that your gonna go through life, but the outcome is always better than the start.

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?
“I’d take them on a tour of the show stopping cities my state has to offer, like the great festivities located in New Orleans I’d take them to great restaurants show them the culture of the area, take them to Lafayette where they can explore a different genre of my state still with good food but a different twist on the ingredients, we’d possibly go to Baton Rouge-to see cites out there and involve ourselves in the capital’s customs and festivities.

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?
My family in general gives me the most motivation a person can ask for, but with the recent departure of my two favorite women I feel more anxious than ever to make them proud, myself proud, and overall give my children the life I wish I had and the opportunities I wish I could afford.
