Janeshia speaks on the disciplined mindset and work ethic she’s developed to reach her goals and evolve in her career. She shares how she deals with rejection, how magical it felt to be on the set of Black Panther, and how life-changing it is to see strong Black characters on the movie screen.
“You’re not gonna win every race, you’re not gonna book every role, but boy oh boy, once you do, that’s the reward. It’s because you kept at it.” – Janeshia Adams-Ginyard
Then, she talks about what it takes to become a stunt woman and the intensive preparation and training that went into Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
"I get the same 24 hours you do. I got the same Monday-Sunday you got. So, I don’t wanna hear I’m lucky. No, I’ve decided. I’ve made a choice to live happy, to live out my passion, to operate in my purpose, and you can do the same thing.” – Janeshia Adams-Ginyard
