Deja Riley

 Deja is first a vibrant human comprised of many facets; wife, sister, friend, creative, mover, motivator, activator, source of inspiration and most important, authentically herself.

 

As a lululemon Global Ambassador and trainer for lululemon Studio, you can find her leading live classes or headlining campaigns on behalf of the activewear brand.  

 

She began her career as a dancer, performing with Britney Spears, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, J.Lo, and Beyoncé and has been no stranger to the entertainment industry as the daughter of New Jack Swing pioneer, Teddy Riley. 

 

Her latest chapter as a podcast host is only the beginning.  Deja knows there are stories to be told and is ready to use her voice, experiences and optimistic outlook to bring these stories forward.  She encourages her listeners and anyone following her journey to “Be a light & spread love where you go.”
