Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Valencia Gibbs. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Valencia , thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. What do you think it takes to be successful?

Having a direct focus of where you want to be in a certain time frame!!!

Valencia , love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

I am a master cosmetologist, licensed insurance agent, and a DV shelter life advocate here in Georgia.. I am always busy, but it is soo fulfilling and worth the work and effort!! I am a single parent of 2 children 20 & 16, I dedicated myself to giving them the life I never had.
I was homeless after Hurricane Katrina with a 1 yr old, we lived out of our car. I made a way out of no way to get back on my feet and create a new life for me and my child!

Any stories or insights that might help us understand how you’ve built such a strong reputation?

Refferals help build my reputation in this industry. I have health issues that have taken me out of work for months at a time, but my GOD and resilience has bought me back each and everytime!!!

We’d love to hear a story of resilience from your journey.

I had 2 back surgeries last year in May. In June I launched my natural product line to keep my business afloat during my down time..
