We had the good fortune of connecting with Kyy Mosely and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Kyy, can you talk to us a bit about the social impact of your business?
Apprehensive helps the people of color community by giving them an outlet to be able to express themselves without judgment. There is no wrong or right answer nor question to ask. We are here to help educate them on certain things that aren’t “norms” for us.
Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
What sets Apprehensive Lifestyle Blog apart from other blogs is the fact that we help people of color understand their mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. We want to explore and dig deeper than the surface area.
I got here where I am today by listening and being open to others and what they need/expect from me. It is all a working progress but knowing as I evolve so do my brands.
Some of the challenges that I faced over the years are being consistent with everything. I started Apprehensive while being a full-time student and a full-time worker. Not knowing that just days after I launched my life would go from completely bright to completely dark within a matter of days. Apprehensive soon became my voice and my outlet. Whenever I wanted to get something done I went and blogged about it. Not knowing it was helping others dealing with the same thing I was.
The thing I want the world to know about myself is that I am human. We all make mistakes, but it is up to us to learn from those mistakes and do better. Every day I choose to do better, that is what makes me a great life coach and blogger.
The one thing I want the world to know about my brand is that we are here to help. It doesn’t matter what you are going through or have been through. If you are looking for a source to just let loose then we are that brand for you. We want you to feel comfortable in your own skin.
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?
Okay, so your girl likes to eat! So we are definitely doing brunch with the bottomless mimosas. Then we will probably go walk in the French Quarter and try different little food places on the strip. Just to end up getting a sweet little snack from Sunset Slush NOLA. Then we would nap because naps are definitely essential in your everyday life. To go out and hit Bourban Street and/or Frenchman Street and have a good time out there with all the music and poetry.
The second day, we would probably make reservations to Desi Vega and get all cute and hit the scene again that night. Honestly, just enjoy what the city has to offer us.
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?
Honestly, thank you to my support system. Without them, I wouldn’t have made it this far and continue to keep going. Thank you for seeing who I am before I knew who I am. I love y’all!
