Mo, we’re thrilled to have you with us today. Before we jump into your intro and the heart of the interview, let’s start with a bit of an ice breaker: Have any recent moments made you laugh or feel proud?
Recent moments that have made me feel proud would be watching my current clients flourish. I love giving brands and business owners the chance to see themselves for the total bosses that they are.

Okay, so here’s a deep one: Who taught you the most about work?
My dad. His work ethic was unmatched. He always had friendships that he would grow from. He watched other people’s work ethics and grew from that. He was the definition of hustle. He was constantly teaching himself to do new things. Once he somewhat mastered a thing, it became some type of passive income.

I’m that same way. I teach myself to do graphics and basic logos because it helps with my PR and marketing journey. It allows me the chance to not always have to rely on someone else to get things done.

Was there ever a time you almost gave up?
There were several moments I almost gave up. In my most recent storm I was dealing with a lot of personal things. When you’re dealing with personal issues and you still have to be on camera and smile or show up for others, it can feel overwhelming. Although you don’t want to “give up”, you’re filled with so many thoughts of pressure, stress and more.

The social media world didn’t see what I was dealing with behind the scenes. Because social media is a huge part of my own personal brand, I’ve had thoughts of deleting it because people watch what you post, what you do, who you’re around, and they pass judgement on what they think your life is. They prey on you and they manipulate you and use you. They will do whatever to be in the spotlight and that can be disheartening at times.

Experiences like that make you want to give up because you start feeling as though everything and everyone around you is superficial and it makes it difficult to navigate both personally and professionally.

Alright, so if you are open to it, let’s explore some philosophical questions that touch on your values and worldview. Is the public version of you the real you?
Although there’s someone out there that who will try to slander my character, I would say yes. Online I’m really about my work, I’m like that in real life as well.

I’m human, I’m not without flaws. I experience the same things others do. There are people I adore and people I dislike as well.

I like to have a good time and that’s reflected on my page, but honestly if I’m “out” I’m working. My real life self likes to be home, in the bed watching true crime stories.

Before we go, we’d love to hear your thoughts on some longer-run, legacy type questions. What is the story you hope people tell about you when you’re gone?
I hope they reflect on my work ethic and discuss how I really go hard for the people I believe in, I hope they reflect on my excellent customer service skills and my support for others. I hope that I was able to make some type of positive impact on all who’s presence I’ve been in.
