Hi Everyone, my name is Jamie R. Wright. I am a proud native of NE Oklahoma and currently live in Houston, Texas!
I am the mother of two adult daughters and I love traveling, reading, volunteering, and DFW Swingout Dancing.
I had the courage to follow my own dreams when I realized just how strong and resilient I was/am after overcoming homelessness as a result of domestic violence.
The biggest lesson I have learned being an entrepreneur is to intentionally work ‘on’ my business, not ‘in’ my business; learn to delegate/empower others.
What inspired me to start my own business is the opportunity to help myself and others create financial resources to provide for our families.
I identified a need in the market by attending business networking events and entrepreneur-based classes/seminars.
“I was victimized, however, I am ABSOLUTELY NOT a victim.” ~ Jamie R. Wright
Give yourself grace along the journey because you’ll absolutely need it to run the race!
