What encouraging piece of advice would you give to your younger self?
I would’ve made a note to self to not be afraid of taking risks. Time moves so fast and had I’d known then the things I now know today I would’ve jumped a long time ago. But to my younger self, I want to say “thank you.” Thank you for all of the mishaps that you had in your younger years. Thank you for being rebellious and mischievous, thank you for deciding to live and not die. Because of you, I am who I am today.
Why is it important for more experienced Black women to reach back and help younger women of color?
I’ve learned through history how the female was always the least dominant compared to the male counterpart. Women should adhere to helping other women not only because of history but because at one point that woman without or lack of, was once them.
What three success habits do you incorporate into your daily routine to maintain your success, sanity and peace of mind?
Patience is my main component [and] knowing that success doesn’t come just because you want it or asked for it through prayer. But knowing that if I keep working towards whatever my heart desires it’s sure to come to pass. Passion is another key element that keeps my business thriving. Loving what you do on a daily basis is powerful, unlike just doing it because it’s a way to make ends meet. Prayer is a ritual for me before the start of my day, throughout my day and at the end of my day. Prayer changes things and faith will allow it to flourish.
