    Preach it, Sister!!
    You are helping new people in the business not to make the mistakes that we in the business have made.

    Came here for event design tips, left feeling empowered. Thank you for preaching about boundaries with people who would walk past us when we’re at work and then try to cling when we’re thriving. I have met many in my life, but I definitely needed the reminder. Just starting my own event business and I feel extremely in line with your content and message. Thank you for sharing and doing the work that you do.

    I just watched the whole video and LOVE, Love, love your authenticity through all of your videos I've soaked up since the algorithm picked your event planning app video 2 weeks ago. But this right here was all the way live and in effect. It felt like we were having a sister-friend conversation. I've shared your page plus the event planner apps video with my team member (she'll be doing balloons and is learning that).
    Thank you for all of your wisdom. That South Dakota analogy was ringing real true!!

    TESTIMONY: I am a new subscriber. I don't know how I even got on your channel, but I can feel God's plan working for me. I have been glued to your content for 4 days now. I craft T-shirts and tumblers, etc. and had no plans of decorating events. I just decorated parties for my grandson and sister just by looking at your videos. Now I'm getting requests and to do events for people I don't even know and being referred by friends who thought I did an awesome job. Thank you for giving back and sharing your professionalism and knowledge.

    You and your gifts are PHENOMENAL! When you started preaching about the lack of integration in the “Event Planning World”, you hit ALL the nails on the head. I just saw this today, but I was over here talking to you like you were on the pulpit & I was waiting on the ushers w/the offering plate! I ❤️ your personality…keep shining Suga! We’re rooting for you & proud of you…keep doing the doggone thing!
