Angela: To be able to fully subsidize our home with my income alone.
HC: Most difficult obstacle you had to overcome to do what you love?
Angela: Starting my own business despite negative reactions. The 1st year is the roughest.
HC: Advice to others who might find themselves in similar situations?
Angela: Never ever listen to others who put your ideas down. Completely throw yourself into your work. In the end, it’s your name not theirs.
HC: What’s the most rewarding aspect of your professional life?
Angela: A Paycheck!
HC: How do you balance family and work?
Angela: I really don’t have an answer to this because some days I think I work too much and other days I am dying to get online. It varies from day to day, but you will know when its time to step back and take a breath. Everyone has their own clock.
HC: What motivates you to work harder?
Angela: Just wanting to be the best at it. I love my site, my team is amazing, and social media is a drug to me lol. It’s just FUN.
HC: Tell us about a role model in your life?
Angela: I would say my husband. He’s just a stronger person mentally than me. I don’t know how he has such will power to do what he does every day.
HC: Tell me about a role model who you have yet to meet?
Angela: One day I swear I will meet the ladies of 5 Minutes for Mom and I have never met the ladies on our team! We are going on 3 years with just phone calls and emails haa.
