Do you remember a time someone truly listened to you?
The last time someone truly listened to me was a group of your men and women. I was speak at a young company about you can be anything you want to be with hard work and dedication.

So a lot of these questions go deep, but if you are open to it, we’ve got a few more questions that we’d love to get your take on. What would your closest friends say really matters to you?
My grandmother because she love me so much and I love her she raised me to be the best version of me. She help me open my 1st business a janitor company at 23 she was so proud of me she was everything to me.
