57: Genecia Alluora From Supporting Herself Through School To Supporting Millions of Women To Love The F Word

<p><br><strong>FWEP00057 Genecia Alluora</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Hence, we are live. Genecia, welcome! So my name is Alexandra and today you are my guest for I Am Magazine and I’m very thrilled and grateful to have you here with me and to be able to interview you for our next issue, that is the business issue coming out in March. Welcome Genecia.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Recognizing your big WHY?</strong></p><p>We all want to do something that is in line with our passion, something that we can manage and hold our time properly and something that can also help people around us but how can we do that when we don’t recognize our purpose first? Here’s the tips that Genecia said:</p><p><br></p><p>(02:12 - 02:18) I think the first thing you need to do is recognize your big why. Why is it? What you do? And Why you do it?</p><p><br></p><p>(03:15 - 03:26) In this life, I have been taught resilience and many times in school I was being bullied because when you are not rich, the rich kids in school will bully you.</p><p><br></p><p>(05:21 - 05:27) My why is my family, to take care of my family, my mom, my dad, and my brother through my working years.</p><p><br></p><p>(05:29 - 05:33) I built up my self esteem along the way.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Learning an essential lesson</strong></p><p>In life we have hardships and that’s exactly the fuel that can push us to be the best version of ourselves, this is what happened to Genecia:</p><p><br></p><p>(05:57 - 06:04) In 2004 I actually joined a modelling competition and I came in top 20 out of 1000 girls.</p><p><br></p><p>(06:07 - 06:23) When the pageant then came knocking I really wasn’t prepared because public speaking, you need to do like department and stuff. Even though I have some form of experience, you know, if you wanna join something, you want to win, right? You wanna do really well.</p><p><br></p><p>(06:24 - 06:35) So I went to tap into my compartment called the compartment of resourcefulness where I went knocking on doors asking for sponsorships.</p><p><br>
