“One thing I want people to know about me as an entrepreneur is I’m a creator, who get it from her momma, who get it from her momma, who get it from her mommaaaaa! I value my business, what we represent, and all the work put into it. I have made and will make a bunch of mistakes, because I’m trying to figure it all out, but I’m learning to stay in my flow. It’s power versus force; my soul leads me, so what one may think of as a ‘risk’ was just something in divine alignment with me.”
