If you could describe yourself in one word, what would that be and why?
Conduit: My heart is to be a conduit of love, using my skill set, experiences, and wisdom to encourage others to live soul-aligned, thriving from the inside out.
What is your favorite inspirational quote or best piece of advice given to you?
Align with the divine, and you will live your life and purpose.
In honor of Women's History Month, can you spotlight a woman from either your life, history or your community who has personally inspired you?
My dear friend Jolene Brown has risen above the most tragic circumstances to become a thriving real estate agent. Mind you, when she started her journey as a single mom in her 40s, she did not even have a high school diploma.
She is a courageous, talented, charismatic, strong, ever-evolving powerhouse. It has been an honor to mentor her over the years and call her my sister friend.
As a woman community leader, how do you approach mentoring and supporting younger generations of women in your community to ensure a sustainable legacy of leadership and empowerment?
As a business owner, I have hired young women and mentored them, focusing on their entrepreneurial spirit. I participate in opportunities offered by the local school district to bring young people into my retail business for mentorship. I have helped several businesses launch in the community, using my storefront as the "launching pad."
My manager has been mentored by me and can now run the business on her own. She is my daughter, but as a young woman, she embraced the opportunity to thrive in the wellness industry. Currently, I have a prominent younger woman in my group coaching program, helping her gain greater alignment in body, mind, and spirit so she can thrive in her position.
Over the years, I have met with many young women to discuss business ideas and offer encouragement for their life and business ideas.
