We had the good fortune of connecting with Kiera Johnson and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Kiera, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
My thought process for achieving my entrepreneurial and generational wealth goals is marked by resolute determination. I have maintained unwavering faith in my vision and dreams. I am motivated by a long-term perspective, understanding that building wealth and realizing your dreams is a journey, not a sprint. My approach involves careful planning and risk management, while remaining adaptable to the challenges that consistently comes my way. The idea of leaving a lasting legacy for future generations serves as a powerful driving force, and you draw strength from a support network to overcome obstacles. Your thought process embodies resilience and a relentless pursuit of your goals, inspiring others to follow their own path towards success and legacy-building.
