Donteacia Seymore's goal is to help a million people develop their ideas into products. In the midst of campaigning for local office in Florida, Donteacia realized she had an idea for a marketable product: a glove that holds your smartphone while working out. She dropped out of politics and instead devoted all her time and energy to developing her product. She eventually succeeded and, after selling the patent, went on to create a system to help other inventors build and patent their ideas. While she previously “followed all the rules,” she realized that she was better off throwing all those old, outdated rules about product development “into the trash bin.” As an African American woman, Donteacia helps others like her by setting an example and providing support, encouragement, and guidance to go after their dreams and make entrepreneurship a reality. Donteacia credits the help of Kickstarter campaigns and a business accelerator, which has helped her grow her business and take the next steps. Now let's get better together Actions to Try or Advice to Take A big takeaway from our conversation was that people worry too much about protecting their ideas. Work on developing your idea; worry about the patenting later. The truth is, many people can have the idea, but very few will actually execute it. Question the established rules when it comes to business-building. Innovation comes from looking at what's needed and what works, not what you're “supposed to do.” You don't have to go it alone. Seymore brought a lot of skills, experience and a positive mindset to the table, but she has found tremendous value in participating in a business accelerator. Her own business is there to help inventors and provides a step-by-step process to help them and well as encouragement and support. It's all about the journey. Seymoure has found that for some of her clients, even if they did not go on to sell their product, they found enormous satisfaction in getting it built.

She Leads Podcast: Leadership Empowerment for Women of Color
Welcome to She Leads Podcast Season 4, Episode 4! This episode of She Leads Podcast features Donteacia Seymore founder of Life Before the Tank. Donteacia is an Innovation Strategist, Inventor, and Public Speaker who leads her life like the Boss she is. To hear Donteacia's take on leadership, listen to her interview as she discusses the importance of knowing your why, being emotionally intelligent, and leading with compassion. Donteacia Seymore’s Bio Donteacia Seymore is an American inventor and award winning innovation strategist. As a product junkie, serial entrepreneur, and giver of lyfe, she is the founder of Life Before The Tank, a remote invention development firm where she works with aspiring inventors to build their inventions. With a renaissance approach to innovation, Donteacia is working to dispel the myth that tech is sexier than the exciting new products we encounter each day. As a writer, public speaker, and innovation enthusiast, Donteacia is inspiring a new generation of inventors to be bold and disruptive...and to do it on their own terms. She has coached hundreds of entrepreneurs and small business owners on strategy and development, helped over 100 inventors with their products and has helped them raise nearly $1M for their amazing ideas. Nicole Walker’s Interview Commentary I really enjoyed this interview with Donteacia and I hope you did as well! I agree with Donteacia’s viewpoint to focus more on the advantages of being a woman, as opposed to giving energy to the unleveled playing field we are in. The facts are indeed the facts, yet we do not have to give energy to the lack! We must embrace the advantages we have as women and use our femininity to work our God given magic! As Donteacia mentioned, women possess a charm that is unique and can be used to finesse the atmosphere. We must look at being a woman as an advantage, especially considering that the ecosystem for women is changing and there is so much access now!! I admire Donteacia’s dedication and determination to fix her anger issues by studying conflict resolution and learning emotional intelligence. Leaders accept personal imperfections and figure out ways to fix the problem. As Donteacia stated, it is important to “learn to resolve conflict in a way that is calm”. Being calm is indeed a superpower! Luckily, we all can attain it if we put in the work. I love how Donteacia decided to solve her problem by going to doctoral school, as I wholehearted believe in the value and importance of higher education. I am super appreciative of the book she shared with us, that will provide the same knowledge for a fraction of the cost. I can relate to Donteacia’s experiences being the older of several siblings, and having to take charge to help her household, as I experienced the same. Our upbringing definitely molds us for our future, whether we realize it or not. As an adult I often look back over my childhood experiences and am grateful for occurrences that I did not necessarily enjoy while growing up. Character building is not an easy process, yet it is essential to reach our peaks as individuals. A quote by Eleanor Roosevelt reads, “Character building begins in our infancy and continues until death”. Nicole Walker’s Takeaway of the Week Donteacia mentioned the importance of being compassionate with others to resolve conflict and build trust. Realizing that “it is not about you”, as Donteacia said, is essential to achieve this goal. It is so true that we are often quick to judge and cancel others, while not considering that people are either coming out of or going into something themselves. I will make it my business to listen more and reaction less. I will be more mindful of my responses, and use Donteacia’s advice to have some canned responses on hand for times when I cannot take the moment needed to simmer before speaking. I care about how I am impacting and interacting with others, so compassion is a must. A quote by Audrey Hepburn reads, “Nothing is more important than empathy for another human being’s suffering. Not career. Not wealth. Not intelligence. Certainly not status. We have to feel for one another if we’re going to survive with dignity”. Nicole Walker’s Leadership Challenge My leadership challenge for you would be to think about the one thing you can take away from this episode and adopt into your life. I know it’s hard to absorb too much information at one time and it’s even harder to try and implement too many changes at once. When I attend a training or listen to podcasts I aim to walk away with a least one thing that stuck out to me and one way that I can change as a result. I challenge you to do the same! If you decide to take me up on my challenge I would love to know about your key take way.
