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

Hi Qiana, do you have a favorite quote or affirmation?
My favorite quote or affirmation comes from Megan Thee Stallion “I’m that bitch, been that bitch and will forever be that bitch” and this resonates with me so much because this is a genuine feeling I carry with myself everyday. There was once a time I was so insecure but pretending to be confident and that affirmation does not hit the same as it does now, because that confidence is genuine now. Some people look at that word as derogatory but not me, its very liberating and freeing to me personally. In my career field as a personal trainer, its all about how you carry yourself, what type of energy you bring and exuding this affirmation attracts the type of women I love to uplift.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
What sets me apart from others besides my drive is my genuine passion and enjoyment in what I do. The type of energy and motivation I bring to social media, even the best creators could not replicate because it’s mine. What am I most proud of? THAT I AM HERE. It doesn’t matter how small Visual Que Fitness might seem to other people, I said that I wanted to change lives and here I am, changing lives. How did Visual Que Fitness start to ring bells in Dallas? I have been putting in that work on social media! Constantly being on your phone or computer screen, posting my workouts, and showing off client results to keep my name in rotation. Starting a fitness business was not easy at all. Sometimes it can be discouraging to have some really big fitness names out here and feeling like you don’t or can’t measure up, but that’s why I keep pushing. I’ve learned along the way that your audience will find you. Your supporters will find you. Your clients will find you as long as you are being yourself and providing information they need.

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.
If Taylor was here in town, the very first thing we would be doing is hitting the gym! lol Planet Fitness is a personal favorite of mine. And yes planet fitness is a REAL GYM. After the gym, if we aren’t in the mood for Chipotle, Pollo Regio or McAlister Deli after a great lift, we’re going to my favourite brunch spot, which is First Watch and Awake. My best friend loves a good museum so we would definitely go to the Dallas museum of Art. We would then go to the Dallas botanical garden because my best friends loves a good picture opportunity. The Park lane outdoor shopping center is just a great area to walk around, people watch and get some shopping done so we would go there too. We’d find a spot at the Main Street garden park for some journaling, yoga and fitness content. If we have made it to Friday, we’re going to get cute and hit up Cafe 214 for some drinks and really good music.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My shoutout goes to my husband, the amazing and debonair Robert Nathaniel Abrams III & my best friend, Taylor Ragland. These two have been so amazing to me. My husband has pushed me to strive for every single dream I have ever wanted to reach and held my hand through it all. My best friend Taylor is such an inspiration to me that she pushes me to be better in my brand and in my craft because of all the work she’s puts into hers! I really want to thank the two of you for everything. There would not be a Visual Que Fitness without you two by my side. I love y’all!
