Seasoned L.A. Musician and Songwriter Kathleen Palma Farless Shares Her True Inspiring Story

Kathleen Palma Farless is a seasoned musician and a very successful songwriter from Manila, Philippines, who has now called Los Angeles home for over twenty-two years. Also, a registered nurse, a frontliner during the past surge, and still navigating her way during this pandemic, the LA-based independent singer-songwriter is a stronger person, a more relatable individual who cherishes life more than ever. 

The Filipino-American artist embraces her vulnerability as a creative artist. Kathleen Farless is uninhibited as she comes back to music this year. Her latest single, “Just a Friend,” was released last January and did not disappoint. Now, her fans are waiting for her upcoming EP.

Voyage LA Magazine has featured the trailblazer as one of the most inspiring stories in Los Angeles. Kathleen has been described as gifted with “powerful, sweet vocals at once tender, yet inspiringly confident.” More than a musician, producer, creative director, and healthcare provider, some of her credits include being a special guest performer for Miss Philippines USA and getting interviewed by news presenter Cher Calvin of KTLA. She also got a feature as a nurse and singer-songwriter in the Ad Campaign for Careisma Scrubs by Sofia Vergara. Another featured and interviewed by a respected Journalist: Jannelle So-Perkins for SoJannelle TV, promoting her powerful single “Who I Am” in 2019.

In 2020, she was part of a PSA Commercial Campaign for Essential Workers as a nurse. Last year in October, she booked a commercial as an actor and model with NDA for Asian Market. Recently landed on the cover for PUMP Magazine Editor’s Choice Artist Edition, where she graced her fashion style as a musical artist. 

The archetypal “hard-working woman” performer, Kathleen truly puts the “independent” in independent artist. Finally, they have seen a real, honest and bold artist who has found her voice, mastered it and, happily for everyone, she shared it with the world.

“Not everyone knows that I am a registered nurse,” Recalls Farless. “I think only a few people really understand the duties involved in the nursing profession, especially in the intensive care setting. Also, the mental and physical stress the healthcare professionals endured during the lockdown and the first wave of the COVID-19 surge is beyond imaginable. Still, we were all resilient, and I believe most of us have almost recovered since the COVID-19 cases in the hospital are steadily going down for now.”

​​

The devastating effect of the pandemic left her crippled in the beginning. She got deprived of her routines in music, her collaboration with other musicians and her interactions with her fans and her friends went away. She remained optimistic, though, the attitude she always has in her. “I did enormous self-care, pulled myself back up again. But, that being said, my love and passion for music is truly validated on a higher level, that unique characteristic, that voice inside of me dictating to connect with all kinds of people through music genuinely and other creative endeavors, just became deeper”, adds the brilliant singer and songwriter.

She wants to be the catalyst of bringing people together through music and hopefully promote positivity in their lives. What separates Kathleen Palma Farless from other artists is her perseverance and diligence. 

Sharing her  true story, as a nurse and as an artist is very inspiring.  She is living proof that it’s possible to do both. “I hope after they read this article they feel inspired and hopefully empowered to do what they love to do in life. Despite the negativity around this pandemic that destroyed many lives in the past, I hope we could all have the courage to turn around this adversity by staying strong, connected and choosing to be kinder to one another as we all move on.”

The process may be challenging,  but Farless has shown the right attitude,  that she’s more than willing to put in the necessary effort to work her way up  reaching more success  in the creative world, particularly in music.

Yalanda Barber-Sweeney Champions Arts and Culture Among Families with Children Through Her Non-Profit, Inspire Your Daughters and Sons

There’s nothing more important than family. Unfortunately, divorce and child abuse rates have skyrocketed in recent times. This worrying trend has inspired Yalanda Barber-Sweeney to establish her own non-profit organization called Inspire Your Daughters and Sons.

Inspire Your Daughters and Sons Inc., more commonly abbreviated as IYDAS, is a family and children advocacy non-profit organization centered around the “Four F Framework” of Faith, Family, Fun, and Finance. This very framework was created to support families with children in order to mend broken relationships, foster stronger bonds, and produce generational wealth while embracing the fun side of learning and self-expression.

“Our masterclasses, trainings, courses, and Facebook community are centered around this framework,” explained founder Yalanda Barber-Sweeney. Yalanda is the first-ever African American woman to create a female and male toy curated as African American foster care heroes, Princess Yaya and King James. In line with her goals and advocacies towards helping children, she immediately established IYDAS to curb the growing trends of divorce and child abuse. 

Nowadays, Yalanda uses her positive voice and her immense influence to inspire and give hope to families all across the United States. One of the latest programs of IYDAS is called the Kreative Master Minds. The program enables children in grades K -12 to discover their own voice and build their confidence through arts and culture, specifically through creative writing. 

Kreative Master Minds focuses on enrichment activities that promote mindfulness, self-esteem, identity, writing, and culture in the class. IYDAS also fosters an environment that exposes inner-city youth to strive to become writers and possibly future prolific authors. Furthermore, participants of the program will also be given the opportunity to learn the process of writing a children’s book, build confidence through finding their voice in creative writing, become pen pals with another youth in Africa, and have a completed published book.

With Yalanda Barber-Sweeny at the helm, IYDAS has been successfully building and strengthening family connections through arts and culture. The IYDAS advocacy remains genuine, strong, and pure as it lives within the hearts of its participants. The non-profit has cemented itself as one of the leading family and children advocacy centers in the industry. The organization’s programs not only teach the youth about creative writing but also teaches them how to monetize their passions and become a ‘kidpreneur.’

IYDAS also supports and assists other non-profits that have similar goals, teaching them how to publish books to build visibility and generate revenue in the ever-growing market. In the near future, Yalanda envisions IYDAS to build a school in Africa for families with children. She hopes to build housing for the people of Atlanta as well as an arts and culture studio with warehouse functionality. Yalanda is extremely passionate about her cause. She hopes to champion the visual arts in order to help children find their place in this world.

A Discussion with Kim Kochman about Strength, Compassion, and the Rewards of Seeing Your Work Bring Joy to Others

Kim Kochman has always been an animal lover, but having family members with severe allergies prevented her from her dream of dog ownership. After surviving a bout with breast cancer, she was determined to complete her family with a dog, but one that wouldn’t aggravate any respiratory issues. She found the Australian Labradoodle, non-shedding, allergy-friendly breed with a great temperament. As she fell more in love with her own pup, she realized how many other families were in the same boat as she had been and decided to create Manor Lake Australian Labradoodles to breed them herself. 

With determination and compassion, Kim has created a breeding program that is now well-recognized within the industry. Her puppies are so sought after, even celebrities have come to her for their family pets. Some of her puppies have grown up to become therapy dogs, as well. Many clients have adopted more than one dog from her. 

Tell us a little about your industry and why you chose to be a dog breeder?

For a long time, because we had allergies and asthma in my family, we had a dog-free home. We had always wanted a dog, but there were so few options. I was actually recovering from breast cancer when I started really researching different breeds, particularly looking for those that didn’t worsen respiratory issues. I found the Australian Labradoodle and fell in love. We had such a great experience that we wanted to allow other families the same joy. I’ve been breeding for about eighteen years now. 

Why did you decide to create your own business?

I had been doing a lot of volunteer work around when we started the business. I have always found helping others and bringing people joy is something that motivated me. When I discovered the breed, it was like a spark for me. Puppies are something that brings everyone joy and the idea that I could help families who have been unable to have a dog before really seemed like the right road for me. 

What do you love most about your industry?

I love meeting our new families. It’s a rewarding relationship. Many of them stay in touch with us for several years. I’ve had clients come back for a second, third, fourth, and even fifth dog. We are known for providing dogs with fantastic temperaments. 

What does your typical day consist of?

I wake up very early to feed and water the dogs. I love playing with them in the morning. Throughout the day, I review applications and run the office. I also make sure the dogs are being walked and generally taken care of. 

What keeps you motivated?

Honestly, my business is a labor of love. It’s not just about providing great dogs to people—it’s about creating families, really. There are so many people that think they can’t own a dog because of allergies or another medical issue they have, yet they are true dog lovers. Educating people that there is a breed that they can bring into their home is a wonderful feeling. Seeing how much joy they have when they come to pick up their puppy is something I can’t really describe. 

How do you motivate others?

I lead by example. I don’t ask anyone to do something I wouldn’t do myself. Whether it’s cleaning up after the dogs or getting outside and playing with them, I motivate others with my own behaviors. I try to be strong and decisive and I encourage that in others, as well. I also do what I can to keep the work day fun.

How has your company grown from its early days until now?

We have always had a lot of family involvement in the company. My kids have really enjoyed getting out there and helping with the dogs whenever they can. I have extended family that helps out a lot, too. We started out as a small, local company. We are internationally recognized as breeders for Australian Labradoodles. We’ve helped others establish their own breeding programs in many different countries over the years. 

How do you maintain a solid work-life balance?

I try to take weekends off and go boating or fishing, something physical that is away from the office. Of course, we always take dogs with us, so I guess that’s not fully separating the two, but it’s a great way to detach and unwind from the work week itself. Within the next several years, I hope to step back a bit and let some of the extended family take a more active role in the company. 

What traits do you possess that make you a successful leader?

I have always been a strong woman. I believe in myself. I know that I can accomplish anything I put my mind to. I set goals and make them a reality. If someone says it can’t be done, I’m compelled to prove them wrong. I’m driven, and I believe that has helped the people who work with and for me to become strong, as well. 

What would you consider your biggest accomplishment?

The different ways we are able to give back. Lots of our dogs do therapy work in hospitals and schools. They can be specially trained to help with PTSD, narcolepsy, high blood pressure, seizure alert, and other alert-necessary medical conditions. We love to give back when we can. For instance, this year, we donated one of our dogs to an approved applicant that is surviving breast cancer. We also paid for ‘Summer Cheer Camp’ for an employee’s niece, sponsored an employee’s pig in 4H, and bought a surfboard for an employee’s daughter so that she could compete and attend after school surf class. Additionally, we intend to donate one of our puppies to a local school auction that’s coming up in the near future.

Coupon Scams – Can They Have a Detrimental Impact on Entrepreneurs?

Coupons can help fetch your business small incremental sales. However, if misused, they can impact your goodwill and finances significantly. That’s why it is crucial to understand the various fraudulent practices related to coupons.

Numerous tactics are in play by the retailers to counter the rise of coupon frauds. So how did it start, and how can you identify the coupon frauds and take corrective measures against them?

How Did It All Start?

The increase in social interaction digitally has led to a change in our way of doing things. Nowadays, someone availing a benefit using a coupon while shopping instantly shares it with their social circles. It is worth mentioning that coupons are usually for a single person’s use.

The proliferation of this happiness bubble is attracting fraudsters into the game to find out numerous ways to con people. They are altering the details of the coupon, including its validity, usage terms, and deals. A critical aspect that needs to be in the limelight is that businesses suffer losses due to such practices.

Numerous layers of a coupon transaction lead to further complications. The increased number of victims is proof of the rising fraudulent practices in this area. Businesses often seek partners who can help avoid incurring such losses. Taking this daunting task is not easy, and entities are rising to the occasion.

For instance, you can seek help from a payback company to put up a case and get your money back. Such a company will have an expert team that has helped recover millions of dollars.

Current Scenario

There has been a rampant growth of online frauds in recent times. However, most businesses ignore them as there is no significant impact on their bottom line.

Negligence from each person in the ecosystem only aggravates the proliferation of fraud. The small contribution of each fraudulent activity ultimately leads to a large corpus of losses to the tune of $ 300-$ 600 million annually.

Impact of Fake Coupons on Business

Coupons are a promotional tool that a business uses to let their target audience know about a new offering or increase the reach of their existing offering. The rise in the adoption of coupons has led many companies to offer bulk coupon creation options for businesses. When you opt for such a service without due diligence, the chances are you do more harm than good.

This approach allows the fraudsters to get an idea of your coupon manufacturing sequence and create them as per their requirement. When your target audience uses such a fake coupon, it only contributes to the rise in agony and creates a negative impression for the brand.

The ultimate impact of such a condition is the loss of goodwill for the brand. It, in turn, will hit your top line, and you will have significant losses due to such practices.

Prevention of Coupon Frauds

The customers will have to be vigilant while opting for a particular coupon. However, as a business, you must put proper mechanisms and checks to ensure the identification of frauds whenever they happen. Your investment in security systems and validation mechanisms can help improve customer experience and reduce negativity.

If you can create our final where only the intended users can redeem the coupons, you will see an uptick in your brand loyalty and sales. Generating unique numbers that a system can track and trigger an alarm when fake codes get punched can do the job for you.

Putting Riders

Many businesses are putting riders in place to cut down the impact of such fraudulent practices on their operations. These practices can include but are not limited to:

  • Quantifying the validity for a coupon campaign
  • Deactivating any old coupons which were in use earlier
  • Validating each coupon via a unique code of which the system is already aware
  • Controlling the distribution channels
  • Promoting fair use of coupons by the target audience to reduce misuse risks
  • Educating the customer about the fraudulent practices in existence so that there is an increased awareness among them
  • Conducting audits in the market to identify the fraudulent practices in circulation

Therefore, a retailer or brand must implement ways to curtail the rising fraudulent practices with coupons. Some fraudsters use any loophole in the system, and customers willingly sharing their coupon codes can only aid them.

Businesses should note that coupons are a tool to increase sales and boost your brand reach. However, failing to have a proper strategy in place will only lead to significant losses without realizing any actual benefits for the business.

How Joshua Finley Changed His Life By Helping Others to Share Theirs

A few short years ago, Joshua Finley was earning $2,000/mo managing an ice cream shop that he had launched with a friend. He always wanted to do something as an entrepreneur, but he wasn’t sure what exactly it looked like. After giving up his share in the shop due to conflicting business ideas, he stumbled across writing. Over the last two years, he has completed revamped his career as a professional ghostwriter and book publisher. Officially launching his company, Domor Books, in January 2022, he generated over 5 figures in revenue in the first month of business. How he has achieved this is a combination of patience, relationships, and work ethic for him and his young family.

Entrepreneurship has always been Finley’s goal in life. “Since I was young, I would pitch business ideas to my dad. I just wanted to build something to help people.” Although, he put his entrepreneurial tendencies aside for four years of college, he always knew it was something he would return to as soon as he saw an opportunity. In 2019, after a short stint in management with Taco Bell and Enterprise  Rent-A-Car, an opportunity presented itself.

“A friend of mine mentioned opening a shop together and we went for it.” Because he had next to no cash saved up, Finley agreed to form a partnership based on sweat equity. He would work for a 50% percent stake in the company. Unfortunately, things changed. After a disagreement on business practices, he ended up losing everything in the company – over a year of work and he had nothing to show for it. With his first son, and his wife to take care off, he had no time to slow down. “I was able to work out an agreement to keep working at the shop, but I started looking for something else. That’s when I stumbled into writing.”

In what he believes was a “God thing,” he was able to start writing on the side for an influencer he met on Instagram, that was the turning point in his life. After a few months of working with this influencer, he met another businessman that needed his help. In a matter of a few months, he was interviewing people for new articles and editing books. Quickly, he realized two things. “I realized that I liked sharing people’s stories and writing could make good money.”

Over the next few years, he has committed to helping others share their story and grow their brand through writing. His company has helped entrepreneurs, athletes, and other public figures to share their story through books, speeches and other writing. His favorite part of the journey has been the relationships he has formed. As a writer and publisher, you become very familiar with people’s stories and lives and that forms a strong connection. Although he is still growing, his goal is to become a giant in the industry. “I genuinely want to tell stories. People will latch on to that like Disney or Marvel.” You can follow and connect with Finley here.

Sony-Honda Electric Vehicle Company Announced

Photo: Sony

Two of Japan’s biggest companies, Sony and Honda, have confirmed their joint venture that makes and sells electric vehicles. It will be established later this year, with deliveries starting in 2025.

In a joint statement, the two revealed that details are still being finalized, and the venture will be set for regulatory approval.

They added, “The new company is expected to plan, design, develop, and sell the EVs, but not own and operate manufacturing facilities.” 

Honda will head the production at one of its factories, while Sony will lead a platform for mobility services. However, this was not elaborated in the statement.

Sony, known for its electronic gadgets and entertainment products, showed interest in the car industry with its first prototype vehicle revealed at the 2020 CES consumer tech trade show. In December 2020, the Vision-S 01, as the vehicle was called, was tested on public roads in Europe. 

The company’s interest in the car industry was raised to another level with the Honda joint venture and the reveal of a new sports utility vehicle concept.

“With our imaging and sensing, cloud, 5G and entertainment technologies combined with our content mastery, we believe Sony is well-positioned as a creative entertainment company to redefine mobility,” said Sony CEO Kenichiro Yoshida at CES in January.

On Friday, Honda CEO Toshihiro Mibe said that they believe the two companies will work well together.

“Although Sony and Honda are companies that share many historical and cultural similarities, our areas of technological expertise are very different.”

Mibe added, “Therefore, I believe this alliance, which brings together the strengths of our two companies, offers great possibilities.”

Illinois’ Top Aesthetic Destination Skinovatio Medical Spa’s Dedication to Excellence and Customer Care

Over the years, the beauty industry has become one of the most successful and fastest-rising industries in the world. Now more than ever, people recognize the value of investing in their physical appearance as it helps cultivate confidence and a positive outlook. As such, many people are looking for trusted brands that provide excellent products and services, such as Skinovatio Medical Spa.

Founded in 2015, the Illinois-based company is the first medical spa franchise in the area. Moreover, it has established its reputation as a premier beauty destination known for providing the most innovative and modern aesthetic services available in the industry today.

Most of their treatments are quick, non or minimally invasive, and virtually painless. These make it ideal for all types of people, most especially for those individuals who lead an active lifestyle that expect little to no downtime after the procedure.

On top of its exceptional offerings, its highly trained and competent medical practitioners and aesthetic specialists make the enterprise stand out. This dynamic team utilizes revolutionary technologies and proprietary therapies to help clients enhance their natural beauty.

The brand has become the go-to choice for many because of its excellent customer service, competitive prices, innovative and modern technologies. As a result, the business has grown immensely. Since its inception, the franchise now has several branches across the state located in Arlington Heights, Barrington, Gold Coast, Lincoln Park, Western Springs, and Ravenswood Manor.

Skinovatio Medical Spa is a 100% women-owned venture led by Kat Sallam and Aleksandra Waibel. The stellar reception and feedback from customers within just the first year of operations motivated the duo to expand the company. Before long, they saw a rapid increase in demand from delighted returning clients as well as their friends and family. 

But most importantly, after hearing so many horror stories from customers who had “in the basement” Botox experiences, they were inspired to provide patients with a safe and affordable environment. As a testament to their advocacy, the pair insightfully said, “We want to educate people and inform them that choosing the right facility for their procedures is very important. Cheap injections are not always good injections.”

They went on to add, “You can still receive your procedure out of cost, but it is very important to make sure that it is done by a highly trained injector or laser technician since the majority of these treatments carry the risk of long life side effects. This is not the case with Skinovatio Medical Spa since we are heavily focused on maintaining a highly trained and qualified staff.”

Thanks to its passion for excellence, the remarkable enterprise has become a leading authority in the beauty and aesthetics industry. Moving forward, it intends to grow the business and expand its reach. In the upcoming years, Skinovatio aspires to be the one and only Medical Spa that is available in each state in the US.

Journalist Kyle Stevens Brings New Energy to the Queens Gazette Newspaper

There’s a new figure within the Queens Gazette that readers cannot seem to get enough of—entertainment journalist Kyle Stevens. Ever since he joined the newspaper on October 21, 2021, readers can’t help but notice his topical local news stories and awe-inspiring photos. They especially took notice of his exceptional work when he covered New York Comic Con last year, where he had an exclusive interview with legendary All Elite Wrestling (AEW) broadcast announcer Tony Schiavone. 

“Being a born and raised New Yorker, I feel that it is my mission to tell the stories that are important to the community,” said Stevens. “There is something powerful and downright nostalgic about delivering quality articles through a physical newspaper with so much history behind it. It’s an honor and privilege to write stories and take photographs for the Queens Gazette.”

Kyle Stevens brings over a decade of experience and knowledge to the entertainment industry. Since joining the Queens Gazette, the newspaper with over 40 years of dedicated coverage, he has written about the closure of several Rite Aids, the Power Book II: Ghost red carpet premiere, and the effects of the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. He has also excelled as an executive digital media producer, creating extraordinary concepts for a variety of different corporations and start-ups. He also penned features on popular celebrities, including Nick Cannon, Steve Aoki, Michael Bublé, Lights, Kathryn Hahn, Sasha Banks, Alesso, and Stevie Nicks.

Among his current objectives after joining the Queens Gazette is to cover the stories that make readers smile, including the sights and sounds of music festivals that are slowly making a comeback as New York City opens itself up to more big events. “Queens has a special place in my heart. It’s my job to put a spotlight on a borough where cool things are happening,” said the entertainment journalist.

Kyle Stevens has been in the industry long enough to know that the competition can get incredibly fierce. Through all of the twists and turns, he has not sacrificed his integrity and authenticity. His quick turnaround time and proficiency in clearly communicating with sources makes him a leader in the newsroom. “I don’t lose my cool. I do it all with a nod and a smile. I also remember to say ‘thank you’ no matter what happens. I keep it positive,” Stevens laughed.

Over the years, he has become a dependable figure in the entertainment and news industries, someone who tells a story as it ought to be told. His reliability and dedication as a journalist have inspired people to entrust him with some of the biggest stories in showbiz. When it comes to well grounded reporting, sources always think of Stevens’ name, a privilege that not all entertainment reporters get to enjoy. 

In his own unassuming way, Kyle Stevens has always managed to stand out without trying. His lovable charm, smooth voice, dynamic on-camera presence, and natural charisma have drawn people to him, even the A-list stars in the entertainment industry. The big names in the business enjoy having heartfelt interviews with him because of his sincerity to tell their unique stories. In fact, Stevens recently became a star himself when he appeared in global commercial campaigns for Pepsi and Zenni Optical. Despite his current success, he has remained levelheaded, knowing that popularity is passing. What matters most to Stevens is the legacy he creates with the stories he tells.

From Camping to Glamping – Outdoor Vacations are for Everyone

Americans work very hard and we tend to put far more emphasis on productivity than we do on well being. In fact, in the average 80 year lifespan, an American will spend less than one year socializing, but 13.2 years working. It’s safe to say that our standards for work/life balance are pretty unequal at best. We tend to measure a person’s success on how much they accomplish rather than how happy or emotionally intelligent they are. 

While this model of work culture might seem to be good for business and therefore good for the economy, it does very little to build memories with family, keep our stress levels down, or to engender a general sense of connection with people and things that truly matter to us in the long run. 

Not only that, but the irony of being solely focused on work and productivity the vast majority of the time actually ensures that we are rarely ever functioning at our fullest potential. The sense of being overworked; the constant stress and strain, and the lack of time to just be, all adds up to being less productive and creative and effective than we could be if we were actually to take the time to tend to our inner and physical needs. 

All of this is fairly widely known and accepted, yet Americans are still so hesitant to unplug. In fact, although most companies will offer their employees 10 paid vacation days per year, less than half actually take those vacation days to unwind. Of those that do, less than half of them actually go on a real vacation on their days off work. 

Some reasons for this hesitancy are fear of being replaceable at work, budget concerns, worries about finding pet sitters, getting coverage for work, and then the stress of actually planning the vacation. 

Fortunately, the US is full of vacation spots that actually resolve the majority of concerns about going on vacation. Taking an outdoor vacation is one of the easiest things to plan and it can cost next to nothing. Not only that, but it’s easy to bring pets along, and it offers many more benefits than just taking ten days off of work. 

Just a few of the benefits of spending time outside are stress reduction, improved memory, better cognitive function, and enhanced overall well-being. Naturally, it’s great for the whole family to get out and explore nature as well. Singing or storytelling around a campfire, hiking, swimming, ziplining, or just learning about nature and trying new activities builds lasting memories, strengthens familial bonds, and helps build confidence in kids as they disconnect with tech and reconnect with the natural world. 

With about 14,000 privately owned campgrounds and RV parks, planning an outdoor vacation is often as easy as driving just a few miles down the road. Campers can plan to rough it a little more with wilderness campgrounds; they can plan a simple tent camping vacation, take an RV road trip, or even try “glamping” which combines the outdoors experience with all the amenities of a hotel. 

Whatever your budget or whatever your comfort level with the great outdoors, an outdoor vacation is easier than you think, and brings a multitude of benefits for every American. 

Innovative Senior Solutions, Paving the Way for the Massive Growth of the Senior Care Industry

Everybody wants to grow old, but what happens when you get there?

This is a conversation that Eshonda Blue and Jessica Wright, Founders of Innovative Senior Consultants, also known as ISC, hope to encourage. With over 20 years of experience as healthcare professionals, specializing in long-term care for the elderly, the sisters have dedicated their lives to the care and comfort of seniors citizens and disabled adults. “We truly strive to make a difference in not only the client’s lives, but in the family lives, the direct care staff, as well as the communities we serve,” the consultants shared.

The Georgia natives have been successful in their efforts, revitalizing distressed communities by purchasing and flipping 22 properties into fully furnished and inspection-ready senior care facilities. Over the next year, they plan to acquire 25 more properties to add to their portfolio of leasable senior care communities that mimic the comfort of being at home.

Safety and comfort are not luxuries, they are staples of the environments ISC create.

At the height of the pandemic, Eshonda Blue and Jessica Wright converted one of their facilities into a recovery home for Covid-19 patients. Under their leadership, the patients were able to safely recover and many choose to remain clients over the year. To date, none of their clients or staff members reported any new cases of the virus while living or working in the innovative senior care homes. Their attention to detail and cultivating staff passionate about serving seniors with the highest quality services to support their health, safety, and dignity set their businesses apart from nursing homes that experienced spikes in the Covid cases. 

Innovative Senior Consultants share their cutting-edge blueprint for success. 

Millions of adults are turning 65 every day. ISC knew they alone could not serve the wave of baby boomers who would all be reaching senior status by 2030. They had to compound their efforts by enlisting the help of competent and compassionate business-minded individuals and investors who were interested in fast-tracking their entry into the industry. In a statement, the CEOs shared, “We want to encourage entrepreneurs who are stalling, due to lack of finances or knowledge, how to enter the senior care industry and be profitable while providing quality service.” 

The consultation agency trains entrepreneurs, real estate investors, and healthcare professionals on starting, maintaining, and growing a profitable senior care business. As mentorship and leadership development played a major role in their early success, the innovative founders vowed to offer similar resources to their clients through offering Turnkey Personal Care Homes, an Accelerator Membership, and their Seniors Care Business Incubator program. The ongoing support and done-for-you options relieves a lot of the stress and anxiety that accompanies starting a new business. 

Innovative Senior Consultants’ Big Hairy Audacious Goals.

Innovative Senior Consultants’ goal in the next 20 years is to become a nationally recognized corporation, setting standards of innovative caregiving through comprehensive senior networks. They aim to reach every household across the country so seniors and disabled adults can comfortably enjoy their golden years.
