What is the Entrepreneur of Impact?
Learn MoreA lot of my business mind comes from my dad, and my ADHD :). I am inspired to continue to grow in business in order to continue to support well the community I live in.

How do you stay motivated?I stay motivated because I stay involved in the community. I have not so far removed myself from the people who matter most, & therefore I can continually stay abreast of the things that are most needed in order for people to truly heal & feel whole.

I would use the remainder to pay off business debts and invest some so the nonprofit is in a healthy place financially so we can begin to implement other things we need to grow, & support me for 1 month of maternity leave for when baby arrives.
