1 .Who or what inspired you to start your speaking coaching business?

Growing up in Orangeburg, South Carolina, I was fortunate to be surrounded by strong, inspiring women who always lifted each other up. My journey through Claflin University and the Medical University of South Carolina was shaped by mentors who encouraged me to find my voice and use it powerfully. The pivotal moment, however, was seeing the transformative impact of effective communication in my own career. As a pharmacist manager, I witnessed firsthand how clear, confident communication could change lives. This, combined with my passion for modeling and mentoring, led me to create a speaker coaching business. I wanted to help others find their voice, share their stories, and inspire change in their own lives and communities.

2. What advice do you have for women going through challenges?

To all the incredible women facing challenges, I want you to know that you are stronger than you realize. Remember that every obstacle is an opportunity for growth. Surround yourself with a supportive network—friends, family, mentors—who uplift you and remind you of your worth. Don't be afraid to seek help and take breaks when needed. Embrace self-care as an essential part of your journey. Most importantly, believe in yourself and your abilities. You have the power to overcome anything and emerge even stronger.

3. How do you manage your work-life balance?

Balancing a career, multiple businesses, and personal interests can be a juggling act, but it's one that I approach with intention. I prioritize by setting clear boundaries and making time for what truly matters. For me, this means carving out moments for family and friends, indulging in my passions like modeling and traveling, and maintaining my health and well-being. I also delegate tasks and seek support when needed, recognizing that I don't have to do it all alone. It's about finding harmony and being present in each moment, whether it's at work or at home.

4. What motivates you when you are faced with adversity?

Adversity has a way of revealing our true strength and resilience. In challenging times, I draw motivation from my faith, my family, and the desire to make a positive impact. I remind myself of the people who look up to me and the communities I serve. Reflecting on my past achievements and the hurdles I've already overcome gives me the courage to face new challenges head-on. Additionally, I find inspiration in the stories of others who have triumphed over adversity. Their journeys remind me that perseverance and a positive mindset can lead to incredible outcomes.

5. What do you hope to accomplish in the near future?

In the near future, I aim to expand my speaker coaching business, reaching more individuals who aspire to find and amplify their voices. I want to develop comprehensive programs that not only teach public speaking but also foster personal growth and confidence. Additionally, I plan to continue growing my t-shirt and apparel line, blending my entrepreneurial spirit with my passion for fashion. I also personally desire to get married and have children as well as continue to travel internationally as much as possible. Ultimately, my goal is to inspire and empower as many people as possible, helping them to achieve their dreams and make a lasting impact on their communities.

6. What is your take on woman-to-woman inspiration?

Woman-to-woman inspiration is a powerful and essential force. When women support and uplift one another, it creates a ripple effect that extends far beyond individual achievements. I believe that we, as women, have a unique ability to understand each other's challenges and triumphs, and this shared understanding fosters a deep sense of connection and empowerment.

Inspiring each other means sharing our stories, celebrating our successes, and offering a helping hand during tough times. It's about creating spaces where we can be authentic, vulnerable, and unapologetically ambitious. When one woman rises, she paves the way for others to follow, breaking down barriers and shattering glass ceilings.

I've seen firsthand the incredible impact of women inspiring women, from the mentors who guided me to the communities I've been privileged to be a part of. It's a reminder that our collective strength is immense and that together, we can achieve remarkable things. By lifting each other up, we not only transform our own lives but also contribute to a more inclusive and equitable world.
