Connect What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

For me, the most rewarding part of being a mom is seeing your children grow and thrive despite the challenges you’ve faced. Balancing work, entrepreneurship, school, and personal struggles hasn’t been easy, but watching mazia and Myla develop into their own unique selves makes everything worth it. I take pride in being able to provide for them, guide them, and create opportunities for their future. This journey has also made me stronger, more resilient, and more determined to break cycles

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

One of the most unforgettable memories was our trip to Disney. Seeing Myla and Mazia’s faces light up as they met their favorite characters and ran around full of excitement was priceless. Their father, being the best dad, made sure they had the time of their lives, joining in on the fun and making them laugh the whole time. Watching them experience the magic, the rides, and the fireworks together reminded me why these moments matter—creating memories they’ll cherish forever.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I had $20,000, I’d put it straight into my businesses and leveling up. Dream Bae Collection would get a full launch—better products, packaging, and real marketing to get it out there. I’d invest in NY-LA Management too, my financial literacy program. Probably put some towards finishing school and getting more certified. And of course, my babies—whether it’s a trip, savings, or just making sure they have everything they need. No matter what, I’d make it work for my future.
