Introduction “If you think you can or if you think you can’t you are right.” –Henry Ford As you continue to read this book, you’ll soon realize that I’m not your typical success story or canned speaker. “I’m a business maaaan,” as influential rapper and entrepreneur Jay-Z would say. I just happen to be a woman. What makes me unique is that I’ve been blessed with not only a unique name, but also the gift of speech and an uncanny sense of business that has afforded me an amazing life. The fact is that I’m a long way from perfect and a very long way from reaching my full potential in life, but I have a very fulfilling career as an entrepreneur, dentist and my most rewarding role as a mother of three and a spouse for almost 15 years now. God has blessed my family and me tremendously. I have an amazing home, cars and all the things that one can envision coming with a life of financial success. I could have truly been content with the place I am in life, but there is something in my spirit that made me want to do more. I believe that I’ve been called to share my story. I believe the reason is to inspire others, not just with books but also with messages, seminars and training sessions that originate from someone who isn’t the usual suspect. Sure, I’m successful, but the only way I know how to tell it is straight. I speak it how I see it, and I’ve realized that while some may not be able to receive it, many more want to hear it. I know that if I can make it, anyone can. This book is about some of my experiences as a successful dentist and as a businesswoman. It’s about my mindset and what lessons I learned along my journey. I believe I can help others overcome the hurdles that may line their path to success. I hope it inspires you to be all you can be. As I’ve come to learn, the sky is just the beginning.
