My strength, love, and resilience make me a super mom—showing up daily, no matter what, and giving my child the best of me.
We would like to thank you for supporting Dez Durden in this year's Super Mom competition. Your participation allows us to aid Children's Miracle Network Hospitals in their commitment to save and improve the lives of as many children as possible.
The most rewarding part of being a mom is witnessing my children grow, learn, and become their own unique selves. Their laughter, love, and accomplishments fill me with pride, and seeing the world through their eyes reminds me of the beauty in everyday moments. The bond we share, built on love, trust, and shared experiences, makes every challenge worthwhile and brings an unmatched sense of fulfillment. It’s a constant journey of learning, loving, and growing together.
What is one memory of your kids that you will never forget?One memory I’ll never forget is having my daughter on stage with me—both of us smiling, healthy, and thriving. I chose to heal so I could be the best version of myself for her, and now I get to watch her shine while standing beside her. That moment reminded me why I started and how far we’ve come.
What would you do with $20,000?With $20,000, I’d invest in my platform When Roses Bloom to expand mental health resources, creative healing spaces, and community events. I’d also support my journey to Ms. Petite USA, using this opportunity to amplify voices, inspire healing, and show others—especially young girls like my daughter—that you can grow through anything and still bloom beautifully.
