DIVINE DIVA INTERVIEW MILENA YESAYEVA

When you were starting out in your career how did you know you were making the right choice as far as pursuing that career for yourself? 

I didn’t lol. I was just following my passion. Little did I know it was going to turn into a huge success. 

Who were you biggest influences growing up?  

My biggest influencers when I was growing up were fashion designers. I wanted to be a fashion designer myself and graduated with a degree in Fashion Design. Later on when social media became popular, influencers and beauty artists became my inspiration. 

When you faced obstacles or fears along the way how did you overcome them, and move beyond them?

Fear is your biggest enemy. There’s still struggles I face daily but I’m so lucky to have a great support system that keep me going. 

What or who inspires you and why? 

At the moment, my biggest inspirations are beauty influencers. I find them to be very artistic in their own way. They ignite an artistic fire in me. I think it’s amazing how they turned social media into a business. It opened the doors for everyone doing anything they love. 

If you could go back in time and change anything about your life would you change anything? If so what would you change and why?

I don’t think I would change anything because I wouldn’t be where I am today if things went differently. 

What do you feel is your greatest achievement?

I think My greatest achievement is changing the way people drink liquor. I want the bottle to look just as good as you on your special day. They are so special because they are hand made specially for the person. I think that means a lot to people. 

What are the most important lessons you have learned along the way?

The most important thing I’ve learned along the way is that you don’t have to be a professional at anything to get a business started. As long as you have passion and consistency you’re on that road. You learn as you go. Don’t be afraid of failing. Failing is a must. It only teaches you how to do something better.  Embrace it. 

What do you hope others will remember most about you and your life? 

I would hope people will remember me for my Artistry. Because I love it, live it and breathe It. 

What is the best advice you would give other women who are not sure what path to choose in their life?

To follow their passion. I know it’s cliché, but it’s the truth. 

What does success mean to you? 

Success to me is doing what I love. It’s true what they say...”If you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life.”
