Oh Nikka! {The Undercover Socialite}

I love the fresh and new, and meeting people who are living their dreams. By day I’m a business woman, a mother, a wife, and a friend. But, by night I metaphorically transform into Oh! Nikka…The Undercover Socialite; a Diva who’s all about what’s new and happening around town. If I had to describe myself what comes to mind is that 80’s commercial for Enjoli perfume where the jingles goes “I can bring home the bacon and fry it up in a pan…” Only, I’m no world renowned chef in some five star restaurant. I am simply a woman who has a passion for living life in style. So in my case “bacon” would be “the story”, and “frying it up in a pan” would be like “giving you the lowdown on what’s happening around town”. I know; I know….it’s not as catchy as the Enjoli ad, but you get the picture (I hope). Growing up in Humble Texas (a real place by the way) I remember getting all glammed up just after raiding my mom’s makeup and my aunts’ shoe collection and then parading around the house. At som

Empower Her Inc.

Kara Norman a Georgia native and 'Grady Baby'. She is happily married to her husband of 14 years and has two daughters ages 13 and 8. Anyone that knows Kara would say that empowerment should be her middle name! Kara's strong desire to empower the lives of girls and women started mostly as a young girl when she struggled with self-esteem. After quitting college due to a lack of confidence, Kara got married and started a family with her husband. After her two daughters were born, Kara went back to earn her bachelor's of science degree in psychology and graduated summa cum laude. During her studies, she chose to focus on women's issues. A seed was planted that not only fed her growing confidence, but eventually grew into her devotion to helping girls and women face today's myriad of challenges. All of these experiences have fueled Kara's passion to empower the lives of women and girls! By day she is a physician recruiter and is in the process of

From Pain To Purpose

Amber Lyons is an Ordained Pastor, who preaches and teaches the unadulterated gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Being a strong woman of faith and diligently serving in ministry to assist in birthing the visions and dreams of others, did not exempt her from living a secret life filled with years of abuse.

Amber emerged from that dark place in her life as a successful Survivor and Thriver with a Passion to help others suffering in silence. She is the Founder & CEO of From Pain To Purpose, which is an organization that provides Domestic Violence Awareness Advocate (DVAA) services within the community. From Pain To Purpose was originally birthed with the vision to aid and support domestic violence victims and children suffering in silence. However, it has since become so much more.
