What Inspired You to Make This?
I want to inspire single moms to be able to make their own side hustles and income by giving them the skills to make their own beads and eventually become an advocate for them to help facilitate them getting the services they need to succeed and progress and get out of poverty. I myself am in the ghetto and have been the subject of abject poverty and homelessness and a broken family, my own children having been thrust into foster care twice due to false accusations from my abuser. I do not want women to go through the same years of pain and struggle I have had to endure, therefore I use art and creativity to shine a light on these issues.
