What inspired you to write this story and contribute to the book?
My ‘why’ conversations inspired me to write this story. Why did God create me? Why do I do what I do? Why is entrepreneurship the path? Why am I the way that I am? These reflections inspired my contributions and my story.
“I hope that readers will gain insight into who they are, an opportunity to reflect on their own experiences – particularly their life and legacy – and inspiration to create something in life that will live even when they die.”
