We had the good fortune of connecting with Nykia Snipe and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Nykia, what inspires you?
First, I want to introduce myself. I am thee crowned owner of Sleep N Royalty. I am most inspired by my family. I come from a background of go getters. My parents are my inspiration. They had me very young but they always made sure I was taking care of. And as I am grown now; that has never stopped. I can honestly say they are super supportive of my plans and dreams. Even with my having my husband; they always make sure we are going okay. As well as my siblings and family members.
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.
The reason why I chose this section is because I’m very artistic. I love art, singing, dancing, and things that bring joy, color, laughter. One thing that I am most proud of is my upcoming Children’s book that I plan to publish this year. Back in 2020, God placed this book on my heart about hair. Especially children with natural hair that may not know what to do with there hair. So with the help of my sister (Armani) she helped me draw some of the pictures. And it’s so funny how God works because at the time I never knew how my business and this book would tie in together. However, that is one of my accomplishments and I’m super happy to say that this year I will also be a published author.
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Favorite spots in the city, for a great brunch spot I do have a few: Southern Fusion (Locust Grove), Milk And Honey, Cirque Blue. I also love the mall. One of my favorite malls is Cumberland mall with the bowling alley inside which also includes the arcade center.
I’ve one been once but I enjoyed Top Golf.
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I talked about my parents in the first question, so allow me to talk about my husband. My husband ( Dejuan Snipe) seen my vision for wanting something of my own. At the time, we would always discuss business and how he wanted something of his own ,but he seen something in me and put his vision on hold to support me and my dreams. He is super supportive and always gives the best advice when it comes to business. He pays attentions. He took the time to invest in me and attends pop up shops. He is my SUPER husband! He saw my vision, we wrote it down, and as I always as together we are making every thought count and every dream come true one step at a time.
