Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My inspiration in business comes from within it’s a vision I refused to ignore. Being a mother strengthened that drive and gave my purpose deeper meaning. I didn’t wait for the perfect moment or outside validation I created my own path. I’m inspired by the impact I’m building, creating a brand that empowers women to feel confident, elegant, and unapologetically themselves.

How do you stay motivated?

My motivation begins with being a mother it’s the foundation of everything I do and the reason I refuse to give up. Entrepreneurship comes with challenges, but my purpose and passion keep me focused on building a brand that empowers women to feel confident, elegant, and unapologetically themselves. Knowing I’m creating something meaningful that can inspire others drives me to show up every day and give my best.

What would you do with the $25,000?

If awarded $25,000, I would invest in scaling Elegant Luxe Co by expanding inventory, launching new collections, and strengthening marketing through content and brand visibility. This would allow me to reach more women and grow a brand rooted in confidence and elegance. This isn’t just business for me it’s about helping women feel powerful, polished, and unapologetically themselves.
