A Purpose Driven Wife and Entrepreneur
I had the wonderful opportunity to be featured on a podcast, I LOVE to listen to about Kingdom Entrepreneurs. The Founder Shae Bynes was actually interviewed in Part 1 & 2 of Sex with your spouse is worship to God. I am VERY passionate about God, Moms, Wives, entrepreneurs and everyone in between, walking out their purpose and thriving in every area of their life. Experiencing the abundant living God intended. I realized that during the worst time in my life, when my husband spoke those words to me, God wants me to be successful more than I did, but He has a way that was already planned out for me to walk (Psalm 139:16).

Celebrating the failures and successes of 2015
When I do a self check and look back at not only my successes, in what I did well, but I like to look at my growth as a person, in my marriage, my business, my family, etc. and really learn from my mistakes.

P048: Freedom as an Entrepreneur
Definition: FREEDOM– the power or right to act, think or speak without restraint or hindrance. Sometimes I come across people who like the idea of being an entrepreneur but don’t know the amount of work that goes with it.
