TeQuita AcQuanette shared their story and experiences with us recently and you can find our conversation below.
TeQuita, we’re thrilled to have you with us today. Before we jump into your intro and the heart of the interview, let’s start with a bit of an ice breaker: What are you being called to do now, that you may have been afraid of before?
I’m being called to rise into the fullness of the assignment Spirit has placed on my life. This season is inviting me to lead openly — to guide women through their spiritual, emotional, physical and economic transitions with clarity, grace, and joy.
I’m being called to:
✨ lead the JoyFlowology™ movement
✨ create healing spaces through the JoyFlow Sister Circles℠
✨ speak boldly about the crisis midlife women are facing
✨ bridge spiritual realignment with AI-enabled upskilling
✨ and be the face of a message that is bigger than me
It’s a calling that stretches me, but it’s also where I feel most aligned.
This is the era of flowing as the woman I prayed for, prepared for, and was preserved for.
Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
I am TeQuíta AcQuanette, Founder of JoyFlowology™, Your Joy-Flowologist, and a woman walking boldly in the assignment God has placed on my life. My work sits at the sacred intersection of spiritual rebirth, emotional restoration, sisterhood, and the rapidly shifting AI-enabled future of work.
JoyFlowology was born in 2024 during a season of profound transition — a moment where God invited me to release what was no longer aligned and rise into a deeper truth. Through my own reset, I realized that women—especially those of us in midlife—are being asked to transform on two fronts at once:
spiritually and emotionally, as well as, professionally and economically; both impacting them internally and externally.
No one was preparing women for both of these dynamic changes.
JoyFlowology fills that gap.
Through JoyFlowology Sister Circles℠, I create soft, Spirit-led spaces where women can exhale, heal, release, and realign. These gatherings offer deep soul-work, prophetic clarity, somatic grounding, and sisterhood support — all designed to help women rise again with ease and grace.
But what makes JoyFlowology truly unique is that we also prepare women for the future of work. Our AI-Enabled Transformation & Upskilling Track helps women understand AI in simple terms, explore new career paths, and rebuild their earning power in an AI-driven world.
And for those called to lead, we offer the Certified JoyFlowologist™ Program, a nine-month pathway equipping women to hold space, facilitate Sister Circles, and guide others through spiritual and economic transition.
At its core, JoyFlowology is a global movement.
It is healing, strategy, identity, sisterhood, and future readiness all woven into one ecosystem.
I’m honored to lead women who are rising after a season of breaking — and flowing into the next chapter of their lives with joy, clarity, and divine alignment.
Appreciate your sharing that. Let’s talk about your life, growing up and some of topics and learnings around that. Who saw you clearly before you could see yourself?
In the physical, the person who saw me most clearly long before I could see myself was my grandmother, Jessie Mae Jones. She was the heartbeat of our family — a woman of extraordinary grace, quiet strength, and deep spiritual wisdom.
Even with only a third-grade education, she managed money with a wisdom and brilliance that surpassed many with college degrees. She navigated life with dignity, and moved through the world with a gentleness that commanded respect. From the mayor of the city to the neighborhood children roaming the block, everyone honored her. She fed entire communities with her red beans and rice and nourished souls with her presence. She believed in me without judgment, without pressure, and without hesitation.
She saw my gifts before I had words for them.
She recognized my calling before I had clarity for it.
She held space for my rise long before I understood what I was rising into.
The love she poured into me, the confidence she spoke over me, and the grace she modeled shaped the woman I am today. Her life taught me how to lead with softness and strength, how to hold space for others, and how to honor God in all things.
Because she saw me, I learned how to truly see myself.
And I honor her legacy through the Jessie Mae Jones Foundation, ensuring that her spirit of generosity, empowerment, and dignity continues to impact future generations. Every Sister Circle, every woman I support, every space of healing and transformation within JoyFlowology is touched by her light.
She didn’t just see who I was —
She saw who I was destined to be.
And today, as I flow in the fullness of my assignment, I carry her with me in everything I do.
What’s something you changed your mind about after failing hard?
After walking through one of the hardest resets of my life, the two things I completely changed my mind about were what community really is and what luxury truly means.
For years, I believed community meant being surrounded — large networks, social circles, professional connections. But my hardest season revealed something different:
Community is not about numbers. Community is about nourishment.
It’s the people who stand with you when everything else falls away.
It’s the women who pray for you, sit with you, speak life into you, and hold you in grace while you rise again.
It’s the souls who see you, not just your success.
Similarly, my definition of luxury shifted dramatically.
I once viewed luxury as the external: the lifestyle, the aesthetics, the travel, the spaces. But in my season of loss and rebuilding, I discovered a deeper truth:
Luxury is peace.
Luxury is stillness.
Luxury is clarity.
Luxury is sisterhood.
Luxury is alignment with God.
Luxury is joy that doesn’t shake when life does.
That revelation became the blueprint for JoyFlow Oasis, my vision for micro-lux retreat villages where women can experience restorative living that is rooted in simplicity, nature, beauty, and spiritual grounding.
Micro-lux to me is not about excess — it’s about intentionality.
It’s the luxury of space, serenity, ease, and presence.
JoyFlow Oasis is the physical expression of everything I learned:
that the soft life is not about things — it’s about flow.
That true richness comes from inner peace, sacred community, and spiritual alignment.
That we rise best in environments designed for rest, clarity, and joy.
What I once defined as luxury has now become JoyFlow living — spaces, rituals, and communities created for women to heal, reset, breathe, and rise again in grace.
Next, maybe we can discuss some of your foundational philosophies and views? Where are smart people getting it totally wrong today?
I think many smart people today are getting it wrong in two major places.
First, they still believe that hard work and degrees guarantee security — even as entire professions once considered untouchable are being disrupted. Nurses, teachers, architects, MBAs, and engineers are all being devalued, restructured, or reshaped under new legislation and emerging technologies. The world is shifting faster than traditional paths can keep up, and effort alone is no longer enough.
This is a season that requires alignment, adaptability, and a willingness to evolve.
Second, people are neglecting the inner world — their peace, their clarity, their spiritual grounding, and their community. Many are achieving on the outside but unraveling on the inside. Surrounded but unsupported. Productive but not aligned. Successful but disconnected from their soul.
In this new era, success requires both:
inner alignment and outer adaptability.
The soul and the strategy.
The emotional grounding and the future-readiness.
This is why JoyFlowology bridges both worlds — helping women rise spiritually, emotionally, and energetically, while also preparing them to navigate the future of work with grace, flow, and confidence. We are not meant to force our way through this season.
We are meant to flow through it — aligned, supported, and awake.
Okay, so before we go, let’s tackle one more area. If you knew you had 10 years left, what would you stop doing immediately?
If I knew I had only 10 years left, I would stop waiting for perfection and stop ignoring the quiet whispers from Spirit that have been guiding me all along. I would release every hesitation, every delay, and every moment spent second-guessing what God has already confirmed.
I would stop:
✨ overthinking
✨ over-preparing
✨ overriding my intuition
✨ and putting off the call on my life until everything “looks right”
I would step into a deeper trust — trusting the nudge, the whisper, the knowing. I would flow sooner, move sooner, and honor the guidance that comes gently but consistently.
And beyond all of that, if I had 10 years left, I would love even bigger.
I would love with an open heart in all aspects of my life — spiritually, relationally, creatively, professionally. I would love boldly, richly, freely, without walls, without fear, and without waiting for conditions to be perfect. I would let love be the energy that guides my decisions, my connections, and my contributions.
I would:
✨ love more generously
✨ love more openly
✨ love more compassionately
✨ love myself more deeply
✨ love others without guardedness
✨ love the moments I’m in
✨ love the life I’m building
✨ and love the world through my work
I would stop postponing joy.
Stop postponing presence.
Stop postponing the fullness of life.
I would choose flow over fear.
Alignment over perfection.
Courage over caution.
And love over limitation.
And truthfully…
this is the posture I am stepping into now — flowing, trusting, and loving with an open heart in every area of my life.
