DR. CARMEN THOMAS Editor-in-Chief / Founder of Unstoppable Women's Empire
HOW I STARTED My passion for entrepreneurism started as a young girl in the late sixties as I would sit in my Grandmothers beauty shop watching and listening as she transformed women from the inside out! That was my aha moment as a young girl, and that was a defining moment that evolved into a quest I’ve been persistently, passionately, pursuing the process of identifying the path to purpose and destiny for over the last forty years of my life. For those of you who are reading this, I want you to understand that the final product you see in me went through challenges, opportunities, and several lessons learned. However, as a serial entrepreneur in the making from a lemon stand, babysitting, a newspaper girl, selling Kirby Vacuums, modeling lesson, selling fur coats and shoes for Hudson’s, leasing consultant, marketing consultant, selling & managing real estate, real estate investor, real estate company owner, author, self-publisher, legacy creator, leading organizations, owner of a for profit consultant/ coaching company, founder/exec.

Non-Profit Organization to empower women to start/accelerate and develop businesses by developing themselves personally and professionally by transforming their minds, shifting paradigms to see, and becoming who they were created to be on purpose and unapologetically is WHAT I DO and WHO I’ve BECOME! By the way, I forgot to mention the fact that I’m a woman of faith! I survived being almost a million dollars in debt without smelling like smoke! I’m married with a blended family of beautiful children and amazing gifted grandchildren. I could go on, on, and on about my story, but lets fast forward to today. I am extremely blessed to have a day career working as an Executive Leader for an amazing CEO and Colleagues. I oversee a nonprofit that supports women starting and growing businesses, and a women’s networking group. Follow me on my social media pages.

ATTORNEY TONI MOORE Each day offers a new opportunity to Rock Your Lane! Whether or not you are a businesswoman, a fantastic mompreneur, or a strategic subject matter expert at a business, something is unique about you that shines through when you own your power to live, love, and lead a life that reflects your dreams. Unfortunately, many women miss out on seeing themselves shine like a diamond in their lives because they heard to sit down, look pretty, play nice, go to school, marry rich and wait their turn. But where has that Urban Blueprint of Success gotten many of us?
Rock your lane of authority to become the wealthier woman of your dreams. If you're a coach, monetize your gift of coaching. If you're a singer, monetize your gift of singing. And if you're an athlete, monetize your athletic gift.

According to studies on women, wealth, equity, and financial services, women earn the majority of college degrees – associates, bachelor's, master's, or doctoral. Similarly, women are majority owners of 38% of businesses and control approximately 51%, or $14 trillion, of the personal wealth in the U.S. In 2026, women are expected to control 22 trillion dollars. Seemingly, women have succeeded at doing all of the things prescribed to us by old, rich men. However, when you dig deeper into those numbers, the overall financial picture of women is dim.
As a poster child of going from welfare to wealth, stuck to unstoppable, I want to share four keys to Rock Your Lane in Business. When you rock your lane of authority, you allow yourself to be who you choose to be. First, you must recognize that you
If you're the one creating the course, own your brilliance by protecting it with copyright registration. If you are building brand names that are loved, appreciated, and monetized, you need to protect what you bring to the table with a trademark certification. And if you're the go-to expert in your field, then you need to own your expertise by creating a limited liability company.
have a lane of authority that no one can take from you. I like to think of your lane as cultivated lessons you learned, natural and learned ability, needs of others that you can quickly solve, and your energy that matches your synergy. Now that you know how I define your lane of authority, let's go over the four ways you can rock your lane. First, you must recognize that you have the power to attain the wealth you want. When you cultivate your gifts and talents into a packaged product and brand, you give yourself the authority to bankroll the lifestyle you deserve and desire. Second, you must own the six inches in between your ears (your intellectual property) you change the trajectory of your destiny. In owning your brilliance, you don't allow others to nibble off of what you bring to the
Third, you must create the space to nurture yourself. We always see the statistics and hear the negativity, but you must affirm what you want. Negate the negativity by affirming that you matter. Lastly, permit yourself to be sovereign. Regardless of what people think you should be doing or how you should be showing up, permit yourself for your enoughness to be enough. Permit yourself to expand your brand no matter what it looked like before today. And permit yourself to become the wealthier woman of your dreams. If not you, who?

SHEILA DURDEN CEO/LEAD DESIGNER MARKETING | L&D | CUSTOMER SERVICE SDURDEN CREATIVES, LLC
November 2015 is the historical date when I ceased all part-time work and began to focus solely on building and developing my business, SDurden Creatives, LLC, which became my primary income source. Over the past 7 years, I have enjoyed the privilege of working with a variety of amazing small businesses, entrepreneurs and nonprofits who are doing wonderful work in their industries. Clients leverage my design skills and work ethic to create effective marketing and training materials, and a variety of customerfacing graphics and forms. In July 2020, my business branched out with a Customer Service Support Team and landed a contract with a fast growing makeup company. In November 2021, my business became a holding company of its first subsidiary brand, Utter Faith. All praise to God - my primary income source is now producing multiple income streams!

To begin, I would like to give all honor and glory to God who makes all things possible. In October 2019, Y-Vette Creative Jewelry launched with a website to feature my unique jewelry designs with a professional look and feel to this new business. Never did I believe this was possible for me, yet the historical dream of owning a business with my picture and name came alive. As family, friends, and customers began to see and purchase the one-of-a-kind designs, they also shared ideas to improve the site and ignite jewelry sales. In 2021,
I am truly blessed!
I committed to building an engaging and on-brand social media presence, which required me to seek out the skills of others. As I continue to advance, I am increasingly determined to continue learning and leveraging the knowledge and resources acquired.
Until next time…multiplied blessing to you!
Thank you to all who will support yvettecreativejewelry.com with purchases and follow me on Meta (Facebook and Instagram).

ingdom EnterPRAYneur's INVEST2SERVE What is crypto? Crypto refers to cryptography. Now, what is cryptography? It’s a method of securing communication or document through encrypting and decrypting in the presence of a third party with ill intent. This refers to a third party who wants to steal your data, money, or anything valuable. Cryptography uses a computational algorithm like SHA-256 which is a hashing algorithm bitcoin uses. Then this system uses a public key to identify the user identity and a private key to identify the user signature. In transaction cryptography, everything through this method and then stores the data in the blockchain
What is cryptocurrency? A cryptocurrency is a digital form of currency that is meant to be a form of exchange. Cryptocurrency is quite similar to a modern currency other than it has no phis Cal form. Also, Cryptocurrency does not focus on one bank or a central unit. It uses a public ledger to document users’ data. This comes with some advantages and disadvantages. In cryptocurrency, there is a limit to how many units can exist. For Bitcoin, the limit is 21 million. Due to this reason, the value of bitcoin fluctuates. Unlike other modern currency, you can not just create more of them.

As we moved from Black History Month to Women’s History Month, I began to reflect on the many historical contributions that women have made throughout the centuries of my life that I consider my heroes. We stand on the shoulders of these women that have paved the way for us. While women’s contributions to history are significant, many women were silenced, and their stories were never told. These women are brave, courageous, energetic, and have overcome hardships that should be celebrated. I call these women history makers because they took a stand during adversity. History makers may not always be recognized, but they pave the way for others and understand that to be great, the foundation must be built upon their faith in God. History makers are visionaries and burden breakers willing to change the status quo and set the trend for others. I am a history maker! - Angela

To be successful, you must know yourself and have unwavering faith that you can be successful. Do your homework, learn as much as possible about the industry you want to go into and step out. Test the waters and I can assure you God will navigate you while on your journey. I had many barriers yet it is was my foundation in believing God, trusting the process, and understanding that there would be peaks and valleys and that his spirit was there through them all. Most importantly Queens!! Look in the mirror daily and pump yourself up. You got this! -Lisa

It all began with a request from my daughter-in-law to make masks for my little grandsons. Those requests multiplied and increased my creativity in amazing ways! Not only did God open new doors of opportunity for my business to expand, my sales in 2020 exceeded my sales in 2019! I have thrived through this pandemic in ways beyond all that I could ask or think. I have learned more about God’s faithfulness and not to be afraid of change. I take such joy in providing my customers with quality masks embellished with crystals, their favorite sports team, superhero, scripture, personal name, or any other adornment they desire. God continues to prove he is my provider, and He works all things together for my good. (Romans 8:28)

God told me to read Hal Elrod’s
PRESIDENT/ SENIOR EVENT DESIGNER www.eleven11eventsgroup.com +1 517-886-0601
book Miracle Morning. In there is mentioned a lot of successful people who started their days very early. I was very motivated by this but my pillow was still calling my name. God kept tugging on my spirit to rise up and start my day with him in prayer. I finally obeyed the voice of God and began my day in prayer at 7 am. For me, that was early. God began ordering my steps, directing my paths, and giving me innovative ideas. I now get up at 5:15 am to start my days. I exercise and Inquire of Holy Spirit daily. God speaks to me prophetically and plans my days.
My Secret Sauce is rising early, praying and hearing from God on how to operate my business. I am finally walking in my God-given destiny! I have found my niche! I know without a shadow of a doubt that I am supposed to help people celebrate by designing beautiful spaces for them to enjoy their special day, their milestone event, or their celebration of life. By choosing Eleven 11 Events rest assured we will exceed your expectations. We make dreams come true! - Phebeit
