My definition of a powerful businesswoman is a purpose driven woman. She is a very passionate, fearless and resilient woman of substance. A woman that is self-motivated, self-disciplined, and knows how to shut down the fun if and when necessary. She knows how to get focused and eliminate distractions. A powerful businesswoman is willing to work hard and smash every goal, without degrading herself or compromising her morals or values  1. What is your definition of a powerful businesswoman?

 1. What is your definition of a powerful businesswoman?
A woman that is unapologetic in her evolving. A woman that knows her worth and never waivers. A woman that understands adversity comes to make her a better woman. A woman that commands the room before you opens her mouth to speak. A woman that knows that in order to be a powerful businesswoman she must wake up everyday and accept the challenge and the hard work that comes with becoming a Successful Businesswoman.  1. Introduce yourself and profession to our reading audience.
My name is Kelli M. Williams and I'm a published author, a purpose discovery life coach and founder of Entrepreneur Platform Magazine, LLC. I help individuals discover their purpose in life, who they are and why they are here and. I then teach them how to monetize their inherent gifts, talents and skills by turning them into products and services that serve humanity. My intent is to enable each person I have the privilege of working with to live a purpose-full life. True happiness has nothing to do with how much money one makes or has, nor is it found in a position or title. True happiness in life comes from knowing what you were born to do and DOING IT! Doing what you were born to do in-turn creates wealth.  Introduce yourself and profession to our readers:
My name is Kenise Etwaru and I've worked in Human Resources for over 15 years and never regretted a single day of it. "Choose a job you love and you'll never have to work a day in your life".  Introduce yourself and profession to our readers: My name is Tanya Wilson and I am an author and a life advocate seeking to contribute through my life testimonies, encouragement for those I come in contact with. I have more than 25 years of experience in the entertainment industry which I use to support indie artist of today. My goal in that arm of my business is to develop artist in their craft and in their lives with the result of a total well rounded talent. Take2 is my lifetime mission. I seek to encourage all people to “not stop where it happened.” Meaning regardless of what has happened in your life, there is still life and life worth living reaching your greatest goal and potential. Don’t become stuck in the muck and mire of your devastation. What inspired you to pursue this area of interest?
I have always known in my spirit, even as a young girl that I had something to say to the masses. Of course life defined and refined what that message was. Once I realized that I was the product of “not letting ‘it’ stop me,” whatever the it’s of my life were, no matter how devastating, I knew that was the message I was born to deliver. I do that currently through my writing of books, television, podcasts and speaking engagements. What advice would you share with those interested in a similar pursuit? Make the decision to move. I have met so many people that continue to articulate what they want to do, but they never do it. They allow fear, negative self-talk, and lack of experience to keep them stuck. Become unapologetically determined to walk in your goals and dreams. Your best life is waiting for you to arrive. Discuss a professional challenge and how you overcame it: The word no. I have always been clear on what I wanted for myself and how I thought I should arrive at that place. Dealing with the word no, or discovering that not everyone see’s things as you see them or agrees, is something that I had to learn to embrace rather than reject. I learned to use feedback, positive or challenging to push me to my greatest potential. What is next for your brand/business in 2019? In my Take2 brand, I will continue to communicate and encourage the masses “not to stop where it happened!” That will be accomplished through books, television, speaking engagements and podcasts. Under my 360you Entertainment brand, I will continue to support independent artists across all genres to become their best production and representation of who they are.

My definition of a successful business woman is one that has prayer, power and purpose over her life. Whatever industry or atmosphere is chosen as your career, exemplify it with a sense of focus and determination. We all weigh success by our own scale so where some may see success as entering into a new tax bracket; others may determine it by how many lives they impact. I choose to determine success for my company by growth and leaving an amazing legacy for my children and grandchildren.  What is your definition of a powerful businesswoman?
A powerful businesswoman knows her worth and is willing to put in the necessary hard work and dedication to accomplish any goal she sets. She also understands the importance of self-care and has it scheduled in her planner to make sure she’s taking care of herself first, so she can have the focus and drive to handle everything else. How have you used your platform/passion to inspire women entrepreneurs? As a Certified Life Coach and Speaker that primarily works with women entrepreneurs, I’m always instilling into them the importance of truly understand their worth, how vital self-care is and helping them to find their purpose. I have a big bubbly personality so I am everyone’s cheerleader as well to help them dream bigger and understand that anything is possible.  1. What is your definition of a powerful businesswoman?
My definition of a powerful business woman is a woman that is transparent with her losses but able you be consistent in her own growth and development. She also is recognizes when she can offer her experiences with others.  What inspired you to pursue this area of interest?
As a woman who has experienced various traumas i often felt alone, unheard and isolated with no help. Therefore, i decided to create this book as a way to be heard, to share with others how i made it through, to let others know they are not alone but most importantly help guide individuals in a funny but tough love way to their healing experience. When you experience trauma you loose your voice therefore healing allows you to find your voice as well as yourself. What is one thing you know now that you wish you knew when starting your professional journey? I created my business and published my book in 2016. One thing I know now is to have book edited by more than one editor. What is next for you in 2019? In 2019 I would like to grow my business by having more opportunities to do speaking engagements, conferences, vendor events and making sure my book is read by more women who have experienced trauma so that they may begin the process of true healing.

What is your definition of a powerful businesswoman?
A powerful businesswoman is a woman who has identified with their purpose and Why? They are set out on a mission to conquer there area of expertise, living life to the fullest potential and growth. 2. How have you used your platform/passion to inspire women entrepreneurs? In my platform as being an event planner and IT Project Manager. I encourage women to take the risks, to go for the big proposals and opportunities. Every step is a learning opportunity to grow your skill set and business whether it be people, process, or profits.  What is your definition of a powerful businesswoman? My definition of a powerful businesswoman is that of a fiercely driven, hardworking, passionate and focussed individual who understands the nuances of challenge and balance. She anticipates opportunities before they even arise and she has an internal blueprint to her plans etched on her soul. She takes risks, learns from her mistakes and adopts the Maya Angelou adage of " Success is liking yourself, liking what you do and liking how you do it!" How have you used your platform/passion to inspire women entrepreneurs?
I use my various media platforms of blogging, radio, DJing and mentoring as a way to inspire other female entrepreneurs, particularly in my field of music and entertainment. I have managed my company " Ms Hennessey Entertainment Pty Ltd for over 20 years singularly and in a very male orientated industry of Hip Hop, I have weathered the storms of sexism, feminism, jealousy, haterade, agesim you name it. Starting out as one of only a small few female hip hop radio DJs in Sydney I believe my destiny was already carved out for me way back when and everything I have done from then to now has paved the way for the next generation to follow. My radio career has launched every other facet of my skillset and I have been blessed to be able to reach and inspire others through my weekly radio show called The Blueprint Hip Hop Sou Show broadcast on Australia's only indigineous black radio station (Koori Radio 93.7FM), to playing at some of Australia's premier nightspots and functions every week booked as an event / corporate DJ. As a writer I have been blessed to reach and inspire many through the informative and candid conversations and interviews I capture on my internationally celebrated blog page www.mshennesseyspeaksblog.com and finally but most importantly, having become an International Bestselling Author of my first book " How To Live For Love & Hip Hop", I believe my platform for encouragement and inspiration to other female entrepreneurs would definitely be felt through these platforms I work off daily. What advice would share, as it relates to women operating fully in their power & purpose? The advice I wished I had received when I was in the throngs of my early journey was to not allow people to sway you from your purpose. Not your friends ( or so called as you will discover just how many stay true after you elevate), not your family, not anyone. Remember that not everyone sees or accepts your talent and skill the way you would like and that is okay, it is not their journey or dream but yours and the path is for your footsteps only. Don't be afraid to accept help if needed and not everything you do will be monetarily rewarded, which can throw you off sometimes. These rewards are those that you will learn and grow from and are ones, either good or bad, that will make you into the badass Business Queen you are set to become. What is next for you in 2019? I am really excited for 2019 and what I have in the pipeline for Ms Hennessey Entertainment. I am branching out into the world of YouTube with my own channel finally ( Ms Hennessey TV), entertaining a new Podcast channel focusing on the issues that women of ALL walks of life, color and culture endure globally and celebrating the warriors in us all and my biggest project and the one that is making my heart sore is finally embarking on my dream of becoming a motivational speaker to schools and organizations tackling the epidemic of bullying amongst our youth both here is Australia and globally. As a survivor of severe teenage bullying, I know first hand the traumatic scars that are left well after the attacks stop and it has been a heartmatters project of mine to share my story of bullying, how I turned being a victim into a survivor and how the power of the written word helped me overcome the anxiety that crippled me for years, eventuating in me becoming an author. I have written a program using the tools of writing and the positivity of hip hops message that I hope will inspire, encourage and teach people to think abut the words they put into action. And of course raising my two beautiful sons into good men, one day at a time. How can readers connect with you online?

What is your definition of a powerful businesswoman?
A Powerful Businesswoman is one who knows how to balance her feminine and masculine energy. The feminine energy is the nurturer, giver, and the intuitive…the masculine side is the executor and powerhouse. When a woman learns how to master these energies, she becomes UNSTOPPABLE in life and business! 2. How have you used your platform/passion to inspire women entrepreneurs?

Introduce yourself and profession to our readers:
Gentamu (Jen Jen) McKinney (Pronounced: Gin-ta -moo) Meaning: Gentle and sweet; one who brings life, joy, and laughter into the world Being the daughter of the late Black Panther member and civil rights activist Gene Allen McKinney, I was born into politics and public service whether I liked it or not. Although I was shy and soft-spoken, I began to follow my father’s footsteps and I let my voice be heard to make a change in the community.  1. What is your definition of a powerful businesswoman?
My definition of powerful businesswoman is a combination of relentless faith, personal drive and ambition. The key to walking in relentless faith is to refuse to entertain unbelief. Faith will not work when you have doubt in your heart. You must stand firm on the promises from God's Word and reject any thoughts, suggestions, or inclinations that go against what you believe. When negative thoughts come override them with the Word of God. Personal drive is necessary because it is often the starting point of motivation. This drive helps you to focus on specific goals you wish to achieve and improve. Lastly ambition, having a strong desire to do or achieve something, typically requiring determination and hard work. These attributes are what I believe makes a powerful businesswoman. 2. Tell us about your business/brand: The first Black woman-owned juice company in Whole Foods 365.
