Meet Monique of Downtown Houston

Today we’d like to introduce you to Monique

Hi Monique, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
I’ve always had a passion for capturing moments, whether it be through photos of my family, places I visit, or my social life. Initially, I shared these moments on social media solely with family and close friends, as I’ve always been more reserved. About a year ago, a few of my close friends encouraged me to step into content creation and share parts of my life with a wider audience. At first, I wasn’t sure how to start or what direction to take, but I decided to dive in and create content that was meaningful to me.

My passion for helping and inspiring others through my personal experiences naturally led me to the lifestyle niche, where I focus on motherhood, social life, and motivating others who may be going through similar challenges I’ve faced. Sharing my journey has become a way to connect, uplift, and encourage others in ways I hadn’t anticipated.

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
It hasn’t been entirely smooth, but that’s to be expected with any journey. Success requires dedication and consistent effort. While I haven’t grown my audience as much as I’d hoped yet, I continue to show up and share meaningful content with those who are here. Every step is part of the process, and I believe persistence will eventually lead to greater growth.

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
While I’m not ready to publicly share the title of my career due to personal and family safety concerns, I can tell you that it’s a demanding and often stressful field. However, the most rewarding aspect is that I get to help others and their families, which aligns with my natural inclination to nurture and care for people. I’ve been with my company for over 16 years, and I take great pride in always striving to do the right thing in every situation that crosses my path.

What sets me apart is the belief that if something were to happen to me tomorrow, my children would know that I always did my best and approached life with kindness and integrity. That, for me, is what matters most.

Can you talk to us a bit about happiness and what makes you happy?
My children bring me the greatest happiness. The joy I feel when I’m with them is indescribable. I cherish every moment, especially with my younger two, as I didn’t have the same opportunity to be as present with my oldest as I would have liked because of work and finishing up college!

My kids and I, We laugh, play, explore, and simply enjoy each other’s company, and those moments are priceless to me.

What also makes me happy is living without worry. Not stressing, just waking up and appreciating the gift of another day that God has given me. Having a sense of inner peace truly softens my soul and allows me to experience happiness in its purest form.
