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

Hi Javenna, what do you want your legacy to be?
I would like for my legacy to be that I am a great Storyteller with the ability to motivate the youth to learn.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I engage the youth with literacy, music, and motivation. I believe these 3 components are needed with every lesson that is being taught. I try to make my book readings fun and interactive. I am proud to be an Author. It is an honor to tell and share my stories. Everyone has a voice and a story we just have to be brave enough to share it. I have learned to be persistent and to keep going even when I didn’t have a lot of support. A lot of times as an Entrepreneur people focus on the sale, is their product selling and how many sales they made. Sales are imperative but what is more imperative to me is the ability to make an impact on the youth.
Sales will come.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I would go somewhere relaxing to a spa. Self- care is important in this stage of my life. We would select a new place to eat that way it’s a new experience for both of us. I would go skating because it’s a combination of fun and a workout.

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?
I am thankful to God for blessing with the ability to tell good stories about education and life lessons. I am also thankful to be a mom. My 3 children have inspired me to write a number of books from the Learn Something Book Series. This series consists of 29 educational and motivational children’s books. My husband is also supportive with my writing endeavors.
