Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My inspiration is the Matriarch; BIPOC women birthing nations, leaning into their gifts, power, and natural essence. The ones building communities centered around sovereign, holistic living, safety, support, and autonomy. Being mindful of consumption through all of life's pleasures, especially those created in our hearts, where true abundance speaks.

How do you stay motivated?

I stay motivated by calling on those who came before me and exercising the gifts they blessed me with. I witnessed my Nana's mastery of her Alterations business; watching each pattern come to life taught me what completion looks like. I carry that vision through the entrepreneurship journey, which I not only chose but was born with, in the philosophy of Wombology. I am my grandmother's prodigy, and this work is my veneration of her.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would pour into every layer of me responsibly, feeding the pillars that keep me in flow. I have a clear business plan: invest in a high-yield savings account, fund my apothecary's current MVPs, pay myself first to honor my sacred temple, establish and legally protect my business presence, and celebrate the clients who made it possible. Building with sovereign, autonomous mastery. This is how I build the legacy I witnessed.
