  Speaker 2: a little bit more about what you're offering here to people.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: How are you helping them out?
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: So I have a purpose-driven brand that is created to empower, inspire,
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: and uplift. My desire is to connect people through books, media, prayer, collaboration,
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: community service. I provide author services, publishing support, book promotions.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: I do inspirational speaking, empowerment events, community outreach. Most of
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: my things are spiritual-based because of my walk, because of
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: the things that I have endured and encountered. I am
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: a domestic violence survivor. I was shot point-blank range with
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: a sawed-off shotgun. I live to tell about it. So
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: I utilize my platform to be able to do the
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: same for others. My whole mission is to help people
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: recognize that they have a voice no matter what. They
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: have a story and that they have an assignment and
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: that all of that matters. And I do it through books, prayer, interviews,
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: podcasts and magazines, every outlet that God has allowed me
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: to utilize through my gifts and talents. Okay, excellent.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Well, when did you get started doing this coaching like this?
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: I started around 2016. I really went full force around
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: 2020 during the pandemic.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: Gotcha. So have you always kind of had a desire
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: here to want to help people this way?
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: In 2014, it really came forth after being... in a
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: domestic violence incident, and given a second chance at life.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: I wanted to let other people know that they still
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: had purpose, and that's what really pushed me forward. It
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: lit a fire under me.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Of course. So when you're working with people, where do
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: you kind of start with them? I'm sure everyone has
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: a different story here.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: So it depends on what avenue and which outlet they
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: come to me through because I have several different platforms.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: I do podcasting. I have a magazine. I go out
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: and I do public speaking. So depending on which approach
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: they approach me, I have helped individuals start podcasting. I've
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: even helped individuals self-publish books. So I meet them where
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: they are. and I try to encourage them wherever they are.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: So if they come to me with a desire to
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: utilize their speaking abilities, I try to help them create
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: their own podcast or try to put them on platforms
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: that will allow them to get out and utilize their
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: speaking abilities in events, public speaking events and things of
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: that nature.
• 3:52
