Rising Stars: Meet Linnea C.

Today we’d like to introduce you to Linnea C. 

Hi Linnea, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself

Hello! I’m an Entrepreneur, Author, Blogger, and Podcaster. I was always talented and creative, but I didn’t realize it right away. When I was in high school, a few of my teachers told me that I should write or do something creative with my life. I wrote some really interesting stories back then. My imagination has always been wild, free, and unique. However, I didn’t take myself too seriously during my school years. Well YEARS and YEARS later, I decided to tap into that creativity because life is short. I want to spend time doing what I love to do. I started “Linnea Blogs Her Way” in 2018. I started my podcasts, “Unpacking The Box Podcast” in 2019 & “Queenz Throne Podcast” in 2020 which entails a plethora of topics. I unpack everything in order to inspire others. I self-published a book, Rooftop Escapes: A Compilation in 2021, and I’m the CEO of the “Queen Wolff LLC” brand/business, a business I started during the pandemic. I also opened a online graphic tees and accessories shop. Consistency, Drive, Authenticity, Determination, and Passion got me where I am today.

I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle-free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
Omg! It’s been so hard, but never impossible. Throughout my life, I’ve struggled with self-doubt, fear, and anxiety which kept me in a shell. Anxiety will keep you imprisoned. It’s very stressful. Throw becoming an entrepreneur into the mix, and that’s a cocktail of emotions lol! My thoughts of failing was a constant dream killer. However, it forced me out of my shell, and I fell in love with being me. I fell in love with all of my gifts, and I realized they were needed. My voice is needed. My words are needed. I wanted to impact others in a positive way. Being an entrepreneur brings great trials, but it also brings many triumphs. I had to overcome my anxiety, fear, self-doubt, and let GOD guide me. It’s not easy yet it is easier. You cannot make your dreams come true if you are living in fear.

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I wear so many hats! I move in transparency because it is my foundation. I love to provide creative, impactful, transparent, imperative, fun, and relatable content. I challenge narratives as it pertains to our black & brown communities, and the way we are portrayed. I shine a very necessary light on fellow creatives who are doing inspiring work. I am drawn to those untold stories and unheard voices. I’ve also conducted tons of podcast interviews with celebrities like actress Tichina Arnold, The Love King of R&B Raheem DeVaughn, and many more! I write from my soul and for others. I bring awareness when it comes to all the things women have endured such as rape and domestic abuse. I bring women together and empower them. I help fellow creatives soar by helping them to knock down their creative blocks. I inspire them to remove fear. Lastly, I sell graphic tees and accessories draped in empowering words from my online shop. My hope is that people will wear the shirts with pride, and feel good about themselves. There is something for everyone. The Queen Wolff LLC Shop is open!

I’m known for my wicked work ethic, hard work, my positive personality, and my amazing podcast interviews.

Out of everything I’ve accomplished, I am most proud of myself for becoming an Author. I really thought I couldn’t do it. I thought I needed lots of money. I didn’t think I could write enough words or interesting words that could fill a book. I didn’t think I was good enough. See, it was self-doubt. But I did it!

I think what sets me apart from others is me being me. No one can deliver like I can. No one has the specific talents that I have because they were given to me. I take risks, and I’m always exploring new things. I put in the work daily to be the very best that I can be, for me. I don’t want to be better than the next. I want to be different.

Can you talk to us a bit about happiness and what makes you happy?
My family, writing, myself, and podcasting makes me happy. They make me happy because these are things I love. These are the people I love. I find that surrounding myself in love, and doing the things I love brings me peace, joy, and happiness. I enjoy these things and the people which makes me happy. 

Writing because it’s such a freeing and calming feeling. 

Podcasting because I love talking to others, learning about them, and helping them. 

Myself because I am the only one who can maintain my happiness. Then, everything else falls into place. 

Family because they are my constant happy place and comfort zone.
