How long have you been in business?
30 years
Why did you go into Business?
God pressed on me and with the encouragement of my mother, Mary and father, Ernest constantly reminding me to create something of my own.
GOD'S FAVOR ON OUR CHILDREN
The children are returning to school. Watching the advertising and sales make me realize we need to start an advertising campaign for the Favor of God to protect our children and to give us courage to take back our schools. Children want to be and feel safe. They want to learn. They want to prosper. They want to be loved. They want us to have their backs. They want to be taught discipline and respect. They want to be good.
Sisters, we are the “village”. In discussions… Continue
We really enjoyed and got a lot out of your sharing. You, my sister are a jewel to the sisterhood!! I have connected with a few of the sisters from the event. The photos tell the story. I look forward to your return in January. Give your family my love and thanks for being you.
Enjoy God's day,
E

Thanks again. I appreciate all of your help, and enjoyed seeing you in Atlanta. I will be back in January.
Look forward to taking you to lunch. Tell your Mom I said, "Hi"
Hi Earnestine, No I am not in Atlanta. I have a sister who lives in Lawrenceville who I have not been able to visit yet, but when I do come that way I will make sure I look for you! Oh yes that red velvet cake, just one of the most popular cakes we make...that happens to be Michelle's favorite! Be blessed and I will talk with you soon.
Hi Ernestine, I just wanted to extend my condolences to you on the loss of your loved one. Remember that God is the greatest comforter there is and He will always be there for you. I pray your renewed strength and that each day will bring new joy to your life!
Hi Earnestine. glad that all is well with you. no, I am not on your list, email can get a bit overwhelming sometimes. Talk to you soon. Peace and blessings. Michelle

Thank you for allowing a platform of expression for the Home Girl, CEO.
You and your vision are both absolutely FABULOUS!
As far As my home based business, I haven't completely taking the plunge but, I'm 90% there!
Here's my thing:
I can no longer fall victim to a work place that has not set up ample respect for the single mom! My last job wanted me to work from 4pm-1am. In my opinion, they were telling me to forget about my family, and forget about having a life and let someone else raise your child!
To me, that's truly unacceptable as well as, on the other hand, motivating.
I can't continue to do the same thing and get the same results. I think they call that "insanity", right!
For me, that was a serious wake up call. So now, I'm working through this thing called "fear" and it's been a douzie! However, I plan to succeed at all cost.
I have too! I'm not giving myself any other option and you shouldn't either.
Always remember that we come from a background of strong survivors that would do anything for the price of freedom, even risk loosing their lives.
So , on that note, lets expect to succeed. Let's plan, organize, and execute! Let's be that person that we are waiting to show up! Let's do the do! Let's make a committment to hold each other accountable for success. I'll take the stand first.
