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

Hi Jessica, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
I went into business for myself so I can find freedom. Being my own boss, deciding when I work, how I work , and what I want to work on. Building a source of pride, there are no participation trophies in entrepreneurship. When you succeed, you’ll know its worth celebrating. I can do things better, learn new skills, build more confidence in group settings, more persistence, and create greater happiness. Growing a successful business I can make money, might lower my taxes. I could create more jobs for other people in the world. I am following my passion so that I can live life with excitement therefore I have a meaning and a purpose.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I am intellectually curious, I believe in possessing empathy and self awareness. It was not easy getting where I am today professionally, honestly and I still have more to learn. I had to understand my personal habits, I had to let go of excessive control, I managed my motivation and learned how to be an ambassador for my brand. My biggest lesson that I have learned along the way is to believe in yourself. Learn from your failures and make calculated decisions. My brand Fitbabe Fitness” is to inspire others to achieve greater health and wellness. To influence people to have an enriching relationship with physical and dance activity to develop a lifelong fitness habit. I want to create a safe place where people can show up and be accepted and celebrated, most importantly to simply be yourself.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I absolutely love being outdoors and in nature. I love water and sun! The sounds of earth. I am always down for an adventurous activity too! I’m the type of person that will have you experiencing things that you’ve never experienced before. My favorite thing is to try different foods while dinning out, lunch, brunch, etc. It’s important that to learn how to actually live your life and not be afraid to try new things.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
No one.
