Throughout my career, I have been influenced by many artists in the industry. Women like Patti Labelle, Gladys Knight, and Aretha Franklin. What I love and admire about them is that they encouraged a sister.

Just as new artists need education and motivation from vets in the business to make informed decisions in the “dog -eat -dog” world of music; our women need a boost when it comes to making healthy lifestyle choices. Now is the time to embrace new ideals regarding food, exercise, and healthcare. Make it your mission to pass the standard on to all women. We need information, influence, and incentive in our arsenal to be equipped to handle life threatening illnesses such as diabetes, heart disease and cancer.

God has a plan for all our lives and he uses every one of us to help one another. Simple kind words can be motivation for someone to change their life. “To whom much is given, much is required.”
