Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

I want to make a difference. It doesn't have to be big but if I can help someone make a choice they didn't know they had that makes life better for them, I'm on a good path. Specific to this industry, many do not know the benefits of cannabis beyond getting high but it has so many uses. Educating someone on their options so they can make an informed decision for themselves can make help them gain confidence and control in their life. If I can help, I would like to.

How do you stay motivated?

My kids keep me motivated. I want to to leave them something, where it be a business or just the knowledge that no matter how old (or young), if you have dream go for it. Either it works or it doesn't, but you won't know if you don't try. I don't need them to follow in my foot steps. I want them to not be afraid to create their own because society says they can't or shouldn't. As a black women in cannabis, I'm at a disadvantage and it's been a hard journey but I'm not here to be put into a box.

What would you do with the $25,000?

$25,000 is going straight into my business. I want to expand into free local delivery and various community events that expose people to the vastness of cannabis. I will need either a scooter or e-bike, a proper website that is easy to maintain and a space to have my dispensary along side a lounge space for events. My current space is limited.
