Glam CEO: Cherri Dallas

What inspired you to become a CEO?

I was inspired to become a CEO after serving 8 years in the United States Army. Being under such strict rules, discipline at another level and during an active War The Gulf war.  The military conditioned me to know that I could do anything I put my mind to.  So I worked a job and gigs at the same time to support my being able to do what I loved which overall is providing next level service in any area I choose.

If you could share business advice with yourself 10 years ago, what would you say?

First, I would want to go back about 20 years, I worked in the Real Estate Industry and made a lot of money and I blew a lot of money.  I would have told my younger self to invest in recession proof areas.  I would have started taking advantage of being a Veteran and going after contracts specifically for my being a Woman Owned Minority Veteran Business.   

How do you feel self-love & confidence impact one's journey as a CEO?

Self-love & confidence impacts my journey as a CEO in a powerful way.  My confidence allows me to keep striving even if things don't go as planned.  My self-love does not allow me to be down because I may not be where I thought I should be or would have wanted to be today.  I absolutely love who I am, the woman I have evolved into and the Grace God continues to bestow upon me in my good, bad or indifferent HE loves me!  Self-love and confidence reminds me daily to be my biggest fan no matter what.   

What are you looking forward to most for the remainder of 2020?

I am expecting God to reveal the coordinates for all His promises He has spoken over my life.  I look forward to trusting every word He has spoken and pray that I continue to yield my will to His.  I learned to change what I see by changing how I see it.  I see this shut down as an opportunity to recalibrate and truly be intentional to live your best life one day at a time rather than focusing on the distractions.  Being grateful and remaining prayerful that things will turn out for our good.
