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

Hi Miracle, what’s your definition for success?
That is such an wonderful question. Over the years, I’ve definitely been on a journey to redefine success and what it means to me. As an actress, there are certain goals,titles, and awards that are seen as ‘success,’ but those were never my personal goals. To me, success is having the freedom to do and create what I want, regardless of how it’s perceived by external measures. It’s about performing for a living, and finding joy in the process, regardless of the size of the stage or the audience.

More importantly, success is about using my gifts and talents for the glory and honor of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, whether or not I fully comprehend the impact it makes. It’s about living a purpose-driven life, contributing positively to the world, and being true to my values. Success, for me, is a journey of continuous growth, self-discovery, and making a meaningful difference.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
Absolutely, here’s a little more about my journey:

My Unique Path:
My career has been a testament to carving out a niche uniquely my own. I’ve always felt like the underdog, often overlooked and minimized. However, this fueled a fire within me to break out of the boxes others tried to put me in. I was encouraged and inspired to create my own lane, not one that was defined by others’ opinions but by my own vision. This journey has not only helped me find my voice but allowed me to truly walk in my God-given purpose.

Challenges and Triumphs:
The path hasn’t been easy. There were challenges, doubts, and moments when giving up seemed like the easiest option. But overcoming those hurdles, whether in the entertainment industry or life in general, has been a source of immense pride. It’s a testament to resilience, faith, and the inner strength to keep going, even when the road gets tough.

Lessons Learned:
I’ve learned that being true to yourself is a revolutionary act. Embracing my uniqueness, refusing to conform to societal expectations, has been my greatest strength. I’ve learned that there’s incredible power in being authentically, unapologetically you. The world doesn’t need duplicates; it needs the authentic you.

Walking in Purpose:
For me, success isn’t just about personal achievements; it’s about walking in alignment with my God-given purpose. It’s about using my gifts and talents to their fullest potential, irrespective of how others perceive them. It’s about being who God created me to be, not who others think I should be.

A Powerful Reminder:
I hold onto the powerful truth that there’s only one me. There are things that only I can do, and that realization carries immeasurable power. It’s a reminder that my journey, my story, and my impact are uniquely mine, and that’s where our strength lies.

What I Want the World to Know:
I want the world to know that in embracing our uniqueness, we unlock a power that can change lives. My endeavors are not just about entertainment; it’s about empowerment, inspiration, and the audacity to be true to oneself. I hope my journey serves as a beacon of light for anyone who’s felt like an underdog, reminding them that their uniqueness is their superpower.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I’d make sure my best friend experiences the diverse tapestry of Atlanta. We’d start with a warm Southern breakfast in a local cafe, explore the artistic and bohemian vibes of Little 5 Points, and appreciate the unique finds in its shops. Of course, we’d visit my church, Mountain West Church, for a spiritual touch.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Absolutely, my heartfelt shout out goes to a constellation of incredible individuals who have been the pillars of support, love, and inspiration in my life. First and foremost, to my husband NaDario Seays, whose unwavering encouragement and shared journey have been my constant motivation. His belief in me and our shared dreams fuels my determination.

To my mother, Evangelist Evelyn O’Neal, whose faith and resilience have been a guiding light. Her unwavering support and prayers have been a source of strength in every step of my journey. She is not just my mother but an embodiment of inspiration and faith.

A special shout out to my mentor, Dee James of Mpactt Productions, whose wisdom and guidance have been instrumental in shaping my path. Her mentorship has been a compass, guiding me through the intricacies of the industry.

And to my extended family and friends, a collective force of love and encouragement, who have celebrated my victories and lifted me during challenges. Each one has played a unique role in my story, making it richer and more vibrant.
