We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Fouchina Kirkendoll a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Fouchina , thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Coming up with the idea is so exciting, but then comes the hard part – executing. Too often the media ignores the execution part and goes from idea to success, skipping over the nitty, gritty details of executing in the early days. We think that’s a disservice both to the entrepreneurs who built something amazing as well as the public who isn’t getting a realistic picture of what it takes to succeed. So, we’d really appreciate if you could open up about your execution story – how did you go from idea to execution?

Once a victim, now a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, I can recall the feelings of loneliness and confusion. After decades of suffering in silence, I decided to face it and to help others do the same. It was at that point that I started using the power of my voice to speak up, to speak out, and to encourage others to do the same. So, here I am today: once touched, NOW REDEEMED. Out of this experience is where Chronicles of a Favored Woman was birthed.

Fouchina , before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

I am Fouchina Kirkendoll, a two time Amazon best selleing author, certified coach practitioner, motivational innovator, mother of two, grandmother of one, and the CEO of Chronicles of a Favored Woman from Duluth, Georgia.

I invite you to join me as I take you through a journey of my Chronicles of a Favored Woman.

For I know the thoughts I think toward you, saith the Lord, thought of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” Jeremiah 29:11 NKJV

Chronicles of a Favored Woman will be charging into the year via impacting lives of others by utilizing three key elements: 1. Increasing awareness of the power of discovering and utilizing their voice 2. The power of forgiveness and 3. their responsibility to pay it forward – go back to help someone reach their fullest potential. It takes one spark to create a forest fire, and Chronicles of Favored Woman plans to be that spark to ignite that fire one soul, one life, one story at a time.

Can you share a story from your journey that illustrates your resilience?

We often hear about learning lessons – but just as important is unlearning lessons. Have you ever had to unlearn a lesson?

I’ve learned who and where I sought advice and guidance. I had to learn to surround myself around people and things that are headed in the direction I’m trying to go or where I desire to be. Example: You wouldn’t get advice from a police officer on trying to be a chef or advice on marriage advice from a person who has never been successfully married.

Seeking the advice from the wrong person or thing will only lead to a waste of your time and effort.
