#ThankfulThursday - Giving thanks for the past, present and future!

Hi! Today launches #ThankfulThursday, a series of weekly shout outs to those who have and continue to support VoliteINC. Credit for the idea to do this goes to Mitch Uzunoglu.

There is a well known African Proverb that says, "It takes a village to raise a child" and I believe that it takes genuine support from family and friends to start a business. There have been MANY people along the way that have supported VoliteINC. and I remember every single one of you! My goal this week is to start out by featuring someone who has been there since the VERY beginning! ;)

DISCLAIMER: These #ThankfulThursday posts are in no way, shape or form ranked or prioritized, so if you're not featured here right away, that doesn't mean that you're not important. I've got a lot of gratitude to give, so please stay patient and your time to shine will come :) If there's something special you'd like to say about VoliteINC and/or if you'd specifically like to be featured, please let me know!

#ThankfulThursday - Edition #1: JoAnn aka Mom

My Mom has always been my biggest fan and my #1 supporter! I know that she will always be by my side to lend a helping hand, to offer advice and most of all just to listen. I truly consider her my best friend and she is a great role model that has shown me what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur. She has run multiple businesses over the past 30+ years and started her own day care out of our home when my Sister and I were babies. My Mom has taught me the importance of how to balance working hard, while managing a family and I am forever grateful for the example she has set. She is definitely the reason why I have an innate urge to create and run my own business! Thanks, Mom! <3
