We asked our honorees how their Mom impacted their success:
The strength and resilience of my mother, an immigrant from Jamaica who single-handedly raised me in both Jamaica and Brooklyn, profoundly influenced my path. Her own battle with weight and unwavering faith ignited my passion for wellness and spirituality. Though her dream of furthering her education was challenged, she demonstrated that perseverance and dedication could overcome any obstacle, teaching me invaluable lessons that have been pivotal to my success.
