TESTIMONIALS

Life for most people is a journey of self-discovery – finding out who we are, what we’re best at, and how we can make a difference in this world.

Oprah Winfrey

Person 1

first billionaire black American woman

Through her talk shows and books, she has drawn attention to the many challenges facing American women. Overcoming many obstacles, she became a role model for black American women.

Stephen King

the twisted writer

Person 2

Unbelievably, King’s first novel was rejected a total of 30 times before a firm would publish it. He even threw the book (Carrie) in the bin, giving up.

Luckily for us, his wife fished it out of the bin and the rest is history.

J.K. Rowling

creator of the Harry Potter empire valued at $15 billion

Person 3

She married, suffered abuse, had a daughter, then divorced her husband. She lost her mom to MS and had to put herself on welfare just to get by.

What’s more, the first Harry Potter book was also rejected by all of the major British publishing houses. Once one finally said yes, the franchise took off immediately.
