How did you become successful in your field?

Actually, my success story is unique and pioneering. I started off my journey as a model and video vixen. In fact, that’s what most of the world knew me as for many years. One day I lost my house, my business, and my car in a city-wide flood that hit New Orleans. I had a rude awakening when I learned, the hard way, that all of the objectification I was allowing didn’t save me from the traumatic events I faced.

Sure, I had hundreds of thousands of followers and fans but that didn’t translate to dollars or respect. I decided to evolve and modify my brand so that I could teach others how to level up after facing traumatizing life events, like I had. Next, I bought a franchise with Novae Money and together we created a brand called,  “Professor Honey’s Credit and Lending.” Our company helps people all over the nation transform their lives. Our success comes from all of the people we serve.

What stresses or obstacles do you have to deal with in your profession?

Educating people about the power of credit is daunting, sometimes. Most of the people impacted most by societal oppression are also those who typically lack the financial literacy needed to change their lives and the lives of their children or families. As a result, many don’t take advantage of the opportunities that are right before them. This can get very frustrating sometimes-especially because we know we can help them.
