This year has been a transformative journey filled with rewarding achievements. I was honored to receive awards from Senator Joe Baca Jr. and Senator Emeritus Eloise Gomez Reyes, including a nomination for Woman of the Year 2024. My business, Yummy Snacks Treats and Goodies, has grown in both reach and impact, earning a finalist position in the Spirit of Entrepreneur Awards for San Bernardino. I also proudly represented our community by participating in Carla Hall's Top Chef competition. Through my role at Young Visionaries Youth Leadership Academy, I’ve continued to empower youth, creating programs like workshops, intervention initiatives, and conferences to support and inspire the next generation.

@Yummysnacks this is amazing, congrats on all of your success this year!

This is so awesome!  I hope you get the opportunity to share your talents as a speaker and tell people how you achieved that!!  I'm a member of two different national organizations that are always looking for speakers for our conferences.  If you have any experience speaking and want to share, let me know!  Congrats on all that you've accomplished!

Since we started our business, we've had a dream of adding more well being to the  beauty, personal + self care space and creating a community around it. This year, we officially launched our Community in Well Being program, making Well Being accessible to those who face barriers and comfortable for those who don't know where to start.

[maxpete]

So glad to hear!

[CareyJo]

It feels so good when we achieve those successes!!  Congrats!!

Hey everyone. I hope all is well. Unfortunately our business has taken a major loss this year due to the economy. We are hoping the future of 2025 hold a much greater success for us as we are still holding on.

[maxpete]

Sorry to hear that, and hope things can turn around for you too! What are some goals + ideas you would love to implement in the new year?

[CareyJo]

Sorry to hear that!  Hoping next year will be better for you.  I know you said it's because of the economy, but hopefully that will change drastically now.  If there's anything that any of us in the community here can do to help you, don't be afraid to ask!

This year our business is fully supporting itself and we are way ahead on purchasing for 2025 already. Looking forward for 2025

[maxpete]

That is amazing to hear!

[CareyJo]

After over 2 decades of study, 8 years of research, 2 years of writing, and 6 months of rehearsals, I brought my very first musical to the stage. I single handedly wrote the book, lyrics, and music, directed the show, produced the show, created the costumes, props, and set, managed the front of house, ran the marketing campaign, and I am now editing the filmed proshot, which will be released on my for streaming early next spring! It's literally been my life's dream and I finally accomplished it, and I'm so happy to finally share my music with the world. If you want to learn more about the show, you can find me here: @cashcomposer 🙂

[maxpete]

[CareyJo]

That is so fantastic!!!  Yay!!  What an awesome dream come true!!
