In three words, describe the essence of your business.
Community, Growth, Impact.

What’s one unexpected lesson entrepreneurship has taught you?
That saying “no” is just as powerful as saying “yes.” Protecting my time and energy has been key to sustainable success.

Was there a defining moment when you knew this business was your path? Tell us about it.
Absolutely—when I saw the direct impact my work had on women’s lives. Whether it was helping a founder secure funding, find community, connecting a woman to a life-changing opportunity, or seeing someone walk in confidence because of my YES, I knew I was building something bigger than myself.

What’s a sacrifice you made that was harder than you expected?
Letting go of stability. Walking away from guaranteed income and a structured path was difficult, but trusting God on this journey has been the most rewarding part.

If you could go back and give your younger self one piece of advice before starting this journey, what would it be?
Trust God with the journey. He is opening doors for you, so you don’t have to force yourself into any room or compromise your values. If it’s for you, it will always be yours.

What’s something about your journey that most people don’t see or realize?
Community and delegation will save you on the days you feel like you can’t go any further. I am not self-made. I have immense support and wisdom around me that help me navigate the nuances and challenges that entrepreneurship often brings.

What fuels you on the tough days?
Jesus- I know who I belong to and who I am. No one can ever define me outside of that. Everything I have is through the kindness of God and the people He has placed in my path. Some days, I absolutely want to quit, but I remember—it’s bigger than me. Knowing that my work helps others push past their own barriers reminds me that this isn’t just about me—it’s about a larger movement.

What does success look like to you beyond the bottom line?
Creating a legacy by changing someone’s life. If my work continues to empower women, foster genuine connections, and create lasting change in communities, that is true success. I may not know every story, and I may not have deep relationships with every woman I help, but God knows them. That’s enough for me.

Who has been your biggest supporter or source of inspiration along the way?
My husband and my family—they are my Mount Rushmore. Their belief in me and this vision pours into me in ways that keep my head high when I need it most. They are the backbone of everything I do.

What’s one thing people can do today to better support women-owned businesses?
Be intentional with your dollars. Invest in, promote, and advocate for women-owned businesses—not just on special occasions, but as part of your everyday life. Women are layered and not a monolithic group. Diversify your support beyond your immediate sphere of influence. It can change the trajectory of a woman’s life.
