How it started
In 2018, I was honored to participate in a youth empowerment event in Brooklyn, New York. As the host, I took the opportunity to share my journey, aiming to inspire the young women in attendance. The impact of my story became evident as numerous girls approached me after the event, expressing their heartfelt gratitude. Witnessing my positive influence on these young minds, inspiring them to pursue their dreams and embrace the boundless possibilities before them, was truly humbling.
During the event, several individuals approached me with the suggestion of pursuing a career as a motivational speaker. I initially found this idea amusing, as the thought had never crossed my mind. I had never contemplated the prospect of establishing my own business. However, as fate would have it while traveling on a plane that following summer, I found myself inspired. During this flight, I conceptualized my brand logo, solidified my purpose, and identified my target audience: ME- Empowerment, Motivate, Education, Empower. With a steadfast mission to motivate young individuals to unleash their true potential and strive for personal growth, I embarked on a transformative journey. Now, after four years of dedicated effort and unwavering commitment, I am proud to reflect on the profound impact I have made in the lives of countless youths.
As an individual, I have undergone personal growth and transformation, which has inspired me to rebrand my business and redefine its purpose as The Soul Of ME. The Soul Of ME represents a profound connection with one's inner self and the pursuit of self-improvement.
