What is Entrepreneur of Impact?
Learn MoreMy mother is my greatest inspiration in business. Watching her as a successful entrepreneur throughout my childhood taught me what it means to lead with resilience, determination, and purpose. Becoming her caregiver gave me a deeper understanding of following your vision and making an impact while you can. Her example continues to shape how I lead, serve others, and build meaningful work that supports my community.
How do you stay motivated?I stay motivated by focusing on the people my work serves and the mission behind it. Supporting therapists, expanding access to culturally competent care, and seeing the tangible impact on communities reminds me daily why I started. Especially during a time when so many are hurting emotionally. Knowing that my efforts support therapists and help clients access care reminds me daily why I do this and keeps me committed to creating lasting change.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would use the $25K to fund my suicide prevention documentary, expand my therapist directory and provide micro scholarships for therapy services. Investing in our marketing structure would increase visibility for underrepresented mental health professionals and create more tools to support their growth. This investment would help more clients access culturally responsive care while decreasing financial stressors for those who do not have access to insurance.
