Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

Elon Musk is a major inspiration to me in business because of his willingness to challenge traditional industries and pursue ambitious ideas that others might consider impossible. Through companies like Tesla and SpaceX, he has shown that innovation, risk-taking, and persistence can lead to transformative change. His ability to think long-term, push technological boundaries, and remain resilient despite criticism motivates me to approach business with a bold vision and a commitment to succeed.

How do you stay motivated?

I keep myself driven by the communities I am apart of on X, my kids, and my spouse. I have endured trauma, loss, and have had to start over as an adult. These powerful experiences have driven me to success because I know I have people looking to me to see that I keep going and my family depending on me. I am building an empire. My ability to persevere is the key to my success.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Give my business the ability to scale and grow. It would be life changing to level up and continue the journey within my crypto community and coffee business. I want to go to coffee conventions to learn and travel to places I buy coffee from so I can also learn about their process and help educate myself.
