Keith Stewart
I moved to Garland 40 years ago to serve as an associate pastor in a small south Garland church. Shortly after arriving, the main pastor at that church resigned and the church asked me to be their new pastor. I was 24 years old. The youngest pastor they had ever had. It was an old, traditional church that was dying. Read more>>
Eboni Steward
True Chosen didn’t start as a clothing brand, it started as a healing journey. For most of my life, I carried what I later learned was an orphan spirit: feeling unseen, unchosen, over-responsible, and constantly striving to prove my worth. Even as an educated, high-achieving woman, I was still unhealed. I looked strong on the outside, but internally I was surviving, not whole. Read more>>
Alona Deeke
Hi, I’m Alona — the founder of Alona Travels. For more than 15 years, I built my career in project management, where organization, planning, and attention to detail were everything.

Brandon Pedro
PCoCo Dog Grooming started as more than a business it started as a purpose. I come from a family of immigrants who taught me that hard work, faith, and community are everything.

My story is essentially a love letter to the arts, written from two different perspectives. I’ve been capturing images since I was a child, but my story was truly shaped in the spotlight.

Tanaya Sanders
My husband and business partner attended undergrad and dental school together. After graduation, we returned to my home state of Texas and worked for various companies as associate dentist.

Lead Wave Dynamics started from a simple observation: many great businesses struggle to grow online not because they lack quality, but because they lack clear systems for marketing and follow-up.

Wilding started from a feeling we couldn’t shake. People were traveling to rest & reset, but arriving overstimulated, overscheduled, and leaving still exhausted.
