Mitchelle, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. We’d love to have you retell us the story behind how you came up with the idea for your business, I think our audience would really enjoy hearing the backstory.
I have always had a business mindset, but I didn’t put it into action until 2021. During the Covid pandemic, I opened my Facebook page and started posting recipes. When I moved to Dallas, I discovered that the cottage food law allowed me to sell my pastries at the farmer’s market. That is how my adventure began.

Can you share a story from your journey that illustrates your resilience?
During my Guinness World Records marathon attempt, there was a particular moment that truly tested my resilience and determination. As I embarked on this incredible challenge, there were moments when doubt crept in, and the physical and mental strain of the feat weighed heavily on me.
After hours of continuous running, fatigue started to set in, and my body began to ache with every step. Doubt started to cloud my mind, whispering that perhaps it was time to give up, to call it a day and rest. The challenge seemed insurmountable, and the thought of continuing felt almost unbearable.
However, deep within me, a fire ignited – a flame of determination and resilience that refused to be extinguished. I knew that this was not just a test of physical endurance but a testament to my unwavering willpower and commitment to achieving my goal.
With each step, I pushed through the pain and exhaustion, drawing on my inner strength to keep moving forward. The cheers of the crowd, the support of my team, and the thought of the record within reach fueled my determination.
In that moment, I made a conscious decision to embrace the discomfort, to push past the limits of my endurance, and to defy the voice of doubt that sought to hold me back. I dug deep, drawing on every ounce of resilience within me, and continued to run, one step at a time.
As the hours passed and the finish line drew near, I realized that my resilience had carried me through the darkest moments of the marathon. I had faced adversity head-on, conquered my doubts, and emerged stronger and more determined than ever before.
In the end, crossing that finish line was not just a celebration of a Guinness World Record but a testament to the power of resilience, determination, and unwavering commitment to a goal. It was a reminder that in the face of adversity, with resilience as my guiding light, I could overcome any challenge that came my way.
