Kimberli Davino-Wilson | Community & Networking Leader for Women | Savannah Travel Guide

Investing in a mindset coach. I was never one who believed in myself or held even an ounce of confidence. And sometimes, I still do struggle with it. Read more>>

Bryce Morrison | Co-‘founder Mom Water and Chief Dad Officer

Deciding to work with family and friends. Most business owners tell everyone never to mix family and business, but Jill & I looked at this in a different way. We knew we had something special with Mom Water and the people we trusted most happened to be our family and friends. I’m sure it may not work out for some folks, but for us it was the best decision we made. Our family and friends know us, trust us, and we inherently trust them. It has fostered a culture at Mom Water where we all view each other as family (whether related or not) today. It allows everyone to work for one another and continue to drive success. Mom Water has actually brought our families even closer. Read more>>

Brett Christenson | CEO Iron Goat Defense (Security Services)

The single most important decision we have made in starting our own business has been putting it in the hands of God. Everything good that has happened has come from the faith that He will provide. Everything we have from the contracts to employees have been by His blessing. We tried the usual methods of advertising, cold calling, Indeed, and Monster, but had no success with contracts or quality employees. Every time we prayed and released our worries to God, we instantly had a phone call for a new contract or email from a job applicant. Our employees fit our values of excellence, honor, and integrity. Additionally, our contracts have been with people or organizations who also have traditional values that care about people, families, and our country. Read more>>

Lauren Ann Tongco | Makeup Artist

The single most crucial decision that propelled me toward success, aside from choosing to work for myself, was undoubtedly the leap of faith I took to invest in my dreams and goals. Recognizing that makeup was a divine gift, I felt a profound calling to share this talent with others. With 14 years of experience in the makeup industry, the pivotal moment occurred when I made the bold decision to leave my secure corporate job after seven years and fully dedicate myself to pursuing makeup as a full-time career.
