For as long as I can remember, I have been in the business of people. I am a self-professed people lover. I enjoy learning, watching and growing by being around others. My love for people comes from the three things that drive me: God, my family and helping others succeed. As a wife, a mother, media personality, entrepreneur and author, I know how easy it can be to lose track and focus, including ourselves and our self-worth. My question to you is this... How can I help get you excited about life, lift you up to your fullest potential and to get you excited about your next journey?

Do You Know How to Lose? The Art of Losing With Grace
COMING WINTER OF 2024
Do You Know How to Lose? The Art of Losing with Grace is a children's, board book intended for preschool and young children. This charming, rhyming story is an easy-read tale that follows the characters Art and Grace as they learn that you never, truly lose. Instead, you learn and can thrive from the lessons learned in not winning. The board book is perfect for little hands and developing fine motor skills. The lessons learned throughout will help young readers associate with the characters and have their "winning attitudes" translate into their own lives.
These characters will enjoy many adventures, while learning lessons in a series of future releases. Stay tuned for more release dates!
