Happy February, Sound Sports Family!

Honoring Black History Month

As we celebrate Black History Month, I want to highlight the incredible impact of African American entrepreneurs in our communities. This month is a time to honor resilience, innovation, and the power of Black business ownership. As an entrepreneur, I am committed to fostering opportunities, creating spaces for growth, and supporting the next generation of leaders.

Speaking at the 6th Annual Black Owned Business Excellence Symposium

On February 1st, I had the privilege of being a speaker at the 6th Annual Black Owned Business Excellence Symposium. This event brought together entrepreneurs, thought leaders, and changemakers to discuss business strategies, community impact, and economic empowerment. It was an honor to share my journey and learn from so many inspiring individuals. "Together We Thrive".

To continue growing and improving Sound Sports Performance, I’ve been actively engaging with top professionals in the business and fitness industries:
Marketing calls with Abundant Marketing Collective – refining our outreach and branding
Business coaching with Business Impact NW – gaining new insights for business growth
Webinars with Mark Fisher (Business For Unicorns) & Stuart Brauer (WTF Gym Talk) – diving deeper into fitness business strategies
