Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

I'm inspired by the children and families I write for. Writing bilingual books about kindness, diversity, and empathy allows me to contribute to a better, kinder world. Creating positive literature for children to emulate, communicate, and care for one another is both a privilege and a responsibility. Knowing that my stories may help shape compassionate individuals motivates me to continue this meaningful work with gratitude and dedication.

How do you stay motivated?

I stay motivated by celebrating small achievements and drawing strength from the encouragement I receive from those who believe in my journey. Recognizing the progress I make with each step keeps me focused. Building meaningful connections and networking with like-minded individuals also fuels my drive, reminding me of the collective impact we can have. Engaging with others who share similar goals and values helps me stay aligned with my mission.

What would you do with the $25,000?

With $25,000, I would invest in expanding my business by creating more bilingual books, eBooks, and audiobooks. Additionally, I would develop cartoon animations based on my stories for streaming platforms to reach a broader audience. This investment would help engage more families and children, promoting kindness, diversity, and empathy through stortelling. I would also allocate part of the funds for educational outreach collaborating with early childhood education programs.
