Cell To CEO

Learn how one single business mistake changed everything in my life and led me to a federal prison cell, being stripped of everything I worked hard to achieve. Go back with me to a dark time, a time when I thought everything was lost, but I refused to let my circumstances define me. I refused to give up.

Walk with me on my journey from Cell To CEO. In that cell, I spent countless hours reflecting on my life, my lies, my decisions, and my future. I made a promise to myself that I would use my experience to rebuild my life and create a successful business with a brighter vision.

In today’s fast paced world it’s easy to fall into the traps of failure,
I will share my story of resilience, determination and perseverance which led me to bounce back stronger than ever before. My journey from Cell To CEO was not an easy one but I am a living example of what it means to overcome adversity. Learn from my experiences and be empowered to take on whatever challenges life throws your way.

Stop Playing and Get Your Shiii Together!

Do you lack success? Is the world against you? Are you tired of feeling stuck? Do you know the power of taking ownership of your actions and decisions?

Well…If you truly wish to achieve your dreams and live your best life, you must stop playing and get your Shiii together!
You must be confident in your abilities to make positive changes and empathetic towards your past failures. I empower you to take control of your life and embrace self accountability.

In life we all go through phases where we procrastinate, make excuses, and avoid taking responsibility for our actions. Allow me to help you understand the benefits of holding ourselves accountable and developing a better understanding of our selves in the process.
From goal setting to self reflection, we will deep dive into practical steps you can take to embrace self accountability. I will help you take action and identify simple yet effective ways to break free from the cycle of procrastination and self- sabotage.

Choose L.I.F.E. (Live in Fierceness Everyday)

I will stand before you as a grieving mother who is managing the pain and sorrow of the tragic loss of my 18 year old son Brison Hunter-Chamberlain. I will discuss the power of choosing life despite the most unbearable circumstances. Knowing the difficulties first hand on processing grief, depression and anxiety & Understanding how living with trauma can seem impossible, but that choosing life is possible. I will talk about the importance of empowering yourself to live everyday with fierceness. I will discuss what it means to make a conscious decision everyday to find joy, hope, and meaning in your life, despite the challenges you may face.

I want to inspire audiences to choose to believe that there is still a purpose for your life and that you can make a difference in the world if you choose LIFE. I want people to know it’s okay to grieve, to feel sad, and to seek help. I want to turn my tragedy into something positive and meaningful. I want to Choose L.I.F.E.

Finding Fierceness Through Failure

Looking to tap into your fierceness and take on life with an unbreakable spirit? Allow me to guide you through the process of developing a resilient and determined mindset, turning your failures into pillars of strength and growth. We’ve all experienced failures in life whether it is a career setback, a personal disappointment, or a missed opportunity. But what separates the fierce from the defeated is the ability to bounce back from these setbacks and use them as fuel for future success.

You will learn strategies for cultivating resilience and self-compassion, so that no matter what obstacles come your way, you wont be knocked off course. We will explore the power of reframing failure as an opportunity for growth, and how this mindset shift can empower you to take on new challenges with confidence. I will share personal experiences to help you relate to the concepts and offer actionable advice to move forward. Discover how to turn your failures into your greatest strengths.

FED Life To Legit Business Life

Be inspired by my journey from operating a multi million dollar criminal enterprise to a life of legitimate business entrepreneurship. I will discuss the specific business mistakes I made that ultimately led to my downfall and incarceration in federal prison.

My key message will be the importance of doing business with honesty and integrity even when no one is looking. I will share my thoughts on how following best practices and good workplace ethics is critical in running a successful business. Rules and regulations are not obstacles to success but rather crucial guidelines that can help a business owner stay on the right track and avoid serious consequences.
