We had the good fortune of connecting with Candi Eduardo and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Candi, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
Who is my target audience? What can I offer them that is unique? coming up with a marketing strategy. What makes me stand out? I had to make sure the services that i offer was something that is needed in today’s Society. Who are my competitors? It takes alot of planning to make sure your not missing anything. Once you have all the answers then you can go forth. Always remember that you have leave room for a pivot in your business.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
I have a coaching business as well as an online store. What sets me apart from others I truly have the heart for people just as God has a heart for us and gives us chance after chance. I believe listening to someone with an open heart allows you to hear the true concern that lies beneath. We all have gone down a road that we really needed a non bias opinion about. I am extremely proud of my own growth in life. I am excited about what’s to come for my business because I want to really help others. No, It was not easy lol When you are walking by faith you have to understand that sometimes we go down a road we weren’t supposed to go down or we take a chance going down a road that may lead to disappointment. Every business owner need to understand that God is in control of everything and we need to first submit it to him so we are not confused or distracted. I overcame a lot of my obstacles through praying and fasting and trusting god. I’ve learned that no matter what it looks like that give to up on yourself because, only you can see the vision that god has given you and never let go of his hand. I am very silly, funny and I don’t take life for granted. My business is a representation of me. Unique

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Yikes, Ummm unfortunately I may live in DFW but, I don’t go out much. I have twins that are about to turn 5. I like to go out and eat and do things with the kids. Great Wolf Lodge, I heard there are alot of restaurants in Fort Worth I would love to go visit. I am here to learn and explore from others in that area. lol

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
First, I want to thank god for not leaving me in the midst of my darkness as well as thanking him for sending divine connections in my life to bringing me closer to him. I honestly wouldn’t know where I would be if it had not been for those kingdom connections. God knows who to send in your life to get you to your destiny. Thank you and I love each and everyone who has supported me along my journey especially my husband.
