Meet Breanna Williams | Entrepreneur

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

Hi Breanna, how has your background shaped the person you are today?
I was born and raised in California, but it was not until moving to Colorado that I felt HOME. My upbringing had everything to do with where I am today, but not in the way most might think. My parents were teen parents and I spent most of my life never digging roots. I knew what it was like to go without, but I never took the victim route. I was always a recognized student athlete growing up. Because of my love for the game of basketball, I genuinely applied the rules of the game to life and its worked for me thus far. “You miss 100% the shots you don’t take, you have to visualize the ball going in, you only fail if you quit.”

As a little girl I had to grow up fast and understand the world around me. I never was in one spot for long, always changing schools, making new friends, all while surviving some wild things in my journey. The way I see it is you have two options: you can let the things that happen to you define you or YOU can define you! I chose to be what defines me early on. By the time I was 19 I decided it was time to mix It up and left to the Army, and I did just that! I had a great time and had some pretty neat adventures while I was in. I met my husband while I was in and we had two children and it lead to me getting out to be home with them. The rest just fell into place from there with my career as an entrepreneur. I wanted to normalize and show that we can be amazing moms and career driven all at the same time.

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.
My persistence sets me apart, I see a goal and it’s no longer unattainable. Instantly, I start figuring out what needs to be done in order to accomplish my goals. I do not stop until I see it all the way through.

I have a diverse career to say the least, but I love every bit of it! I started my career in entrepreneurship in 2018 with selling cosmetics and it blossomed into so much more over the years! I am now the Director of Marketing for a local realty team, and I am a Personal Trainer. The other part of what I do is all paid out through social -platforms and brand deals.

Getting here started the day I got out of the Army and I no longer had that stable future planned. I never treat anything I do as small. I was a new mom struggling and needed a hobby, So, the second I bought a kit to sell cosmetics I carried myself on social media as a business from then on. I was relentless in my consistency and showing up for me even if it meant just having fun. My social media presence so quickly grew to me sharing my genuine story in all aspects in hopes that I can relate to others, and they can see me as that light of hope. That’s how I branded myself (BreeWillinspire)

Some career wins have been becoming a Fitness Coach with FMEZ. The athlete in me is excited to coach others to their own wins and goals! I am Director of Marketing for HHMCO (a local realty team), I taught a few TikTok branding classes at (a local brokerage, I was also selected to run in Miss Health and fitness 2022! I say all of this because it all stemmed from me being myself on social media and I would have never been here if I didn’t just take the risk at the unconventional.

I want the world to know that their Mindset is their biggest superpower and just because others cannot see the vision doesn’t mean it cannot happen! As long as you believe in yourself, you can and you will!

~Stay Humble Hustle Hard~

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.
Its winter so if I were to have a friend in town we would go to ziggis for a hot coffee and breakfast burrito, before driving through Garden of the Gods, and walking the old Historic Manitou strip. I would have to take them to Sandy’s restaurant for brunch because they have the best Biscuits & Gravy and large cinnamon rolls! We would have to go to the summit for a night of fun Filled with large arcade games, bowling and laser tag! I don’t like cooking so we will definitely door dash Albertacos because its the closest thing I have had compared to San Diego burritos. I would love to do a drive up to woodland park to show the beauty of the mountains and just a change of scenery. If they wanted to check out downtown I would take them to C.O.A.T.I and Blondies.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I’ve waited for the moment to take the Time to shoutout this very special person to me! She is so much more to me than a mentor! I call her Auntie E! She has the biggest heart and my word she’s intelligent! She’s got all the love in the world and all the knowledge to offer. She has helped me grow and flourish in ways I never thought possible. She’s a blogger and known on social media for giving some amazing recommendations! I encountered some fast paced growth along the way and I have her to thank for the constant advice and guidance personally and professionally! Never stop spreading your shine Auntie E!

Something she does for me: is at random she will send me a book that’s fitting To my current season of life and she knows I’m obsessed with development so its always fostering some sort of professional or personal development. She has a way to bring me peace and balance even across the country from me. Thank you for nurturing my heart and mind!
