We had the good fortune of connecting with Lequvia Ousley and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Lequvia, can you share a quote or affirmation with 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?
As the owner of D.I.V.I.N.E. Blogger, LLC, my focus is on writing, editing, blogging, and social media (brand ambassador, admin, and influencer.) Although I had studied business since high school and college, graduating with an Associate’s in Business Administration and BS in Accounting, my story of entrepreneurship began in 2012 with my first freelance assignment. I was 26, working as a staff accountant and was asked by a church member to help create content for her nonprofit blog that was centered on educating students and the community. This assignment lasted until 2014 and by that time I had joined the Just Write! Support and Mastermind Group which helped me to define who I was as a writer and later as a business owner. It was also during this time, I started a writer’s blog for Just Write! that I continue to maintain today with monthly content as an extension of the Embassy International Chamber of Commerce. In addition, I helped a business owner and author with some social media ideas and she helped me see that there was a potential business for myself that could meet the needs of the Just Write! group and my local community. What sets me a part within my business is that I am able to connect with people in any environment who have also challenged and encouraged me. I am a messenger and scribe by nature who has a way with words where I can decipher what people need to express. The acronym for D.I.V.I.N.E. represents my ‘why’ which is to help “Develop Intellectual Visionaries’ Individual Needs Exceptionally.” What I am most proud of is that I have been able to provide insight and services to some amazing authors and entrepreneurs who are hidden gems in their respective fields who had a message but didn’t know how to convey those messages. I count it a blessing that people consider me an expert and advisor for their businesses. It’s been a joy meeting other creatives who have shared similar beginnings to how their projects developed. The constant edification and creative momentum is what keeps me going. This journey has not been easy as I have navigated career changes and breaks that almost caused me to abandon my gift of writing. One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned is to not allow others’ criticism of what I should be doing to control me and to just let the creativity and inspiration from gifts flow organically.
