Being over 40 brings a profound sense of maturity and gratitude that enriches every aspect of life. At this stage, I cherish the respect I’ve cultivated for myself and others, which stands as a testament to the experiences I’ve navigated. This respect forms the foundation from which I lead my team, guiding them with a commitment to positivity and professionalism. Additionally, my journey has equipped me with invaluable insights that I eagerly share with other entrepreneurs.
How do you stay fabulous?I stay fabulous by maintaining a sharp focus and consistency in all that I undertake, which fuels my drive and success. My positivity not only uplifts my spirit but also serves as encouragement for those around me. I believe in the power of shared success and motivate others by showing that if I can achieve my dreams, they can too. This approach not only enriches my life but also creates a supportive community where everyone feels empowered to reach their full potential.
What would you do with the $40,000?With $40,000, I would expand The Braid Gallery by developing our mobile app and launching a mobile salon, enabling us to reach more customers efficiently. We would also hire additional staff and enhance training programs to maintain excellence. This funding would support community initiatives like the backpack giveaway, safe Halloween candy distribution, Toys For Tots, and providing hair services for homeless and foster children, significantly impacting our community.
