Interview by Shoutout Atlanta
We had the good fortune of connecting with LaKeisha King and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi LAKEISHA, looking back, what do you think was the most difficult decision you’ve had to make?
September 2016 I was 7 months pregnant, and I was working a full time manager’s position at Office Depot. I was having complications with my pregnancy. One day during work I was assisting a customer, and all of a sudden I blacked out. The next thing I remember was waking up on the floor surrounded by Paramedics. It was in that moment I had to decide what was more important. This job or my baby.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I have located some of the best spots in Texas that serve the authentic Mexican Food. We would definitely check out my favorite spots for the Mexican Food. Now every girl loves to shop, and of course we have to take a visit to the Galleria Mall. The Buffalo Bayou Park has been rated as one of the best spots to visit in Houston so that’s a spot we must go see. The Turkey Leg Hut has been branded as the BIG talk of the city, and my friend coming in from Mississippi I am sure that has to be added to our list of spots I take her to.
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My Mom Shelia King. My mom always made endless sacrifices for myself and my brother. Once I made the decision that I wanted to be a Business Owner I always told myself I will make her proud, and she would be well taken care of.
