FLAME Entrepreneurial Training Testimonial
Another powerful outcome from our Women's FLAME Entrepreneurial Training has already emerged!
After years of dreaming but never starting, Carla a participant launched her first business just months after completing our program. She now operates a food stand every Friday and Saturday at a local plaza, with customers already becoming regulars and word spreading through her community.
What Made the Difference:
It wasn't just the business training (though that helped). The breakthrough came from being surrounded by other women entrepreneurs who looked like her, faced similar challenges, and were building businesses in her own community.
Seeing them succeed, not just dreaming about it, changed everything. If they could do it, she could too.
The training gave her tools. The community gave her courage. The mentorship provided direction. Her peers provided proof.
Three months later, here’s what changed:
Economic impact: New income stream for her family
Community impact: Local plaza gaining affordable food and increased foot traffic and vibrancy
Social impact: Other women inspired and considering their own ventures
Personal impact: From self-doubt to business owner in 3 months
She's not just selling food. She's modeling possibility. Every weekend, her stand becomes a beacon that says: Dreams can become reality. Change is possible here
