We had the good fortune of connecting with Zahkia Morgan and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Zahkia, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
I started my own business so that I could have freedom to do what I want. For some reason every time I put in a request to leave town I would feel depressed, anxious and nervous. One because someone else had control over telling me if I can leave town or not. So being nice to a person who cuts your checks just so you can get permission to leave town felt like prison. After working for others for 15 years i soaked in everything I needed to venture on my own. Took that jump and I haven’t been back to work for anyone since.
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?
Be Epic is a lifestyle. Everyday we wake up to progress in a positive manner and impact the world greatly! What sets me apart and I’m most proud of, my ability to see a plan and execute on the fine print of it. I don’t need all the details of the business to assess it and start the internal workings. I love what I do! By way of getting to know the business, you’ll learn the owners and the vision! I got to where I am today by keeping my thoughts positive and my heart warm. No, it wasn’t easy. I’ve battled myself to get to this point. Confusion, lack of confidence, financial, self motivation all these barriers and hurdles that were placed to see if I would remain true to my calling.
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.
The Slutty Vegan! Any chance I get to take someone to Pinky Cole’s place I do! Her inspiration and magnetism draws me near. I feel the similarities in our journeys. After that, I mean, it’s Atlanta right! Anything and everything is open for discussion!
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
If I had to stop and thank everyone individually, I’d be writing a dictionary thick type of paragraph! I will say this, I have various times in my life when I thought the worst, my higher power guided me to a certain type of energy. That energy has always been the boost to get me through to the next level. For the person or persons who that energy came from. This is for you!
