We’re looking forward to introducing you to Queashar L Halliburton. Check out our conversation below.
Hi Queashar L, thank you so much for joining us today. We’re thrilled to learn more about your journey, values and what you are currently working on. Let’s start with an ice breaker: What is something outside of work that is bringing you joy lately?
Right now, I’m finding joy in stepping back and resting from the hustle of everyday life. I’m refocusing on building my business brick by brick while still working on my 9–5. Keeping my day job as a licensed insurance agent gives me peace of mind, knowing I don’t have to stress about staying afloat as I grow my business. There’s no rush or pressure—this steady progress allows me to grow thoughtfully, adjust, and build a sustainable foundation.

Okay, so here’s a deep one: What was your earliest memory of feeling powerful?
“From the moment I heard the phrase ‘Knowledge is power,’ I knew it would shape my life. At a young age, knowledge became my superpower—opening doors, breaking stereotypes, and proving that a young Black girl could rise above society’s limits. I refused to be a statistic. Instead, I chose to be a force for change.”
If you could say one kind thing to your younger self, what would it be?
If I could say one kind thing to my younger self, it would be, “Stop playing small! Dream and live big! Take more risks and trust yourself. You were blessed with everything you need to succeed. Keep God first, be brave, and do not let your comfort zone limit you. Your self-belief and willingness to take risks will be your greatest assets.”
Sure, so let’s go deeper into your values and how you think. How do you differentiate between fads and real foundational shifts?
Fads are temporary trends. They quickly influence people to follow the crowd or risk being left behind. Real foundational shifts take time to be realized. These evergreen shifts result from following proven steps to get a desired outcome and provide a higher level of transformation.
Okay, so let’s keep going with one more question that means a lot to us: Are you doing what you were born to do—or what you were told to do?
While doing what I was born to do, I understand the value of continuous growth. That’s why I continually invest in business coaching with experts who have already achieved my desired level of success. Their knowledge fuels my journey and helps me implement strategies to achieve my business goals.
