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

Hi Tayana, what’s the end goal, career-wise?
The end goal for me is to be in the fashion industry as well as becoming an actress. I eventually want to have my own clothing brand , skin line , and so more. I want to host huge awards show and events and just be able to make a big name for myself in the entertainment and fashion world .

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.
What makes me stand out as a host is I naturally want to make people feel special and feel like they’re the star. I carry this energy because I know how life can be tough and people go through a lot so I never want to be the reason why someone is down . I rather motivate you and uplift you and help you see your own light. I’ve got to this point in my journey by just realizing I had a gift of being able to walk into rooms and always putting smiles on people face , whether that’s with laughter or motivation , I’ve always been a person that you’’ll never have a dull moment with . My journey hasn’t been easy but it’s my journey and I’m up for the challenges. When I’m hosting I feel like I’m in my element , just connecting and enjoying life with great vibes and energy. One lesson I’ve learned so far in my journey is not everyone is going to gravitate towards you and it’s not because they don’t want to connect but it can be because they don’t know how to or it takes time for people to understand who you are and what you are about. But never dim your light or change who you are to please others, eventually the world will catch up. I want the world to know that I’m very intentionally about the energy I carry and the energy I keep around me, if it’s not positive or uplifting , then I can’t participate in it . I believe in kindness , love , and letting your hair down and living your life.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
