What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part of it all is seeing my daughter watch me win—knowing she’s learning that she can chase her dreams, work hard, and make things happen. She sees me juggle business, family, and life with determination and love, and that shows her she can do the same. Every late night, every challenge, every win—it’s all worth it because I’m not just building success for myself, I’m showing her what’s possible.

What is one memory of your kids that you will never forget?

There isn’t just one memory—every moment with McKenzie is special because we’re so close. But one of my fondest was taking her to Local 12 Studios for my first on-air production, showcasing Taste of Boujie to the public. Seeing the pride in her eyes as she watched me in action was unforgettable. It was a moment that reminded me why I do this—not just for my success, but to show her what’s possible when you believe in yourself and go after your dreams.

What would you do with $20,000?

With $20K, I could invest in McKenzie’s education, catch up on bills, and finally take a much-needed vacation and photo shoot—we haven’t had either in six years. She’s heading to high school soon, and I’ll need to cover what scholarships don’t. This would give us a chance to create new memories, capture where we are in this journey, and set her up for success while giving me some breathing room to keep building for our future.
