I always get paid for speaking
I would share the story of how I overcame years of domestic violence and found myself and all that I can gift to the world through a journey of education and personal empowerment.
I am the founder of my business. Throughout my years in upper-level education, I realized that I could build something that I could be proud of. I wanted to incorporate and intertwine education, personal transformation, leadership, individuality, and wisdom into my business and the lives of those I serve.
