Today we’d like to introduce you to Grace McClain
Hi Grace, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I grew up in Florida, but since 2014, Atlanta has been home—a city that has shaped my entrepreneurial vision and drive. I got my start in digital marketing—a field that’s equal parts creativity and hard work. From the outside, it might seem glamorous, but in reality, it requires discipline across multiple areas—graphic design, copywriting, analytics, and more. I loved the challenge of it, but over time, I realized I wanted to create something of my own.
That realization led me to New Millennia™, a brand I had been building quietly for years. The turning point? Seeing the lack of loyalty in corporate America to its employees. I knew it was time to step out and launch my brand boldly. But more than that, I could hear God reminding me—I always quote Deuteronomy 1:11, but now it was time to actually walk in faith so He could make it happen.
New Millennia™ is more than fashion. It’s a statement of strength, joy, and boldness—built on the undeniable influence of Black American culture, which has always been at the center of American culture. Beyond that, my vision extends to New Millennia Academy™, an initiative dedicated to helping foster youth transition into adulthood with education, support, and resources. This mission is deeply personal to me, inspired by my mother, Beulah Farquharson, whose activism in our Central Florida community focused on uplifting and supporting those in need. Watching her advocate for others showed me the power of giving back and ensuring that no young adult has to navigate the world alone.
As a wife and mother to a lively 3-year-old boy, people often ask how I balance it all. The truth? There is no perfect balance. But my family is my priority, and building this business is for them. Challenges? Plenty. Getting the word out on a tight budget has been tough, but I know this will be part of my biggest testimony—how faith carried me through.
My journey is still unfolding, but if there’s one thing I know for sure, it’s this: We don’t just exist in the world—we shape it.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
The biggest challenge comes with expanding New Millennia™ beyond Atlanta and into all 50 states. Scaling a brand nationwide means breaking into new markets, reaching new audiences, and ensuring that the message of strength, joy, and boldness resonates everywhere. It’s a challenge, but one I’m excited to take on—because if there’s one thing I know, it’s that our culture, our impact, and our influence are limitless.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
For years, I worked in digital marketing, helping brands grow through strategy, content, and analytics. I was deep in the corporate world—agencies, car dealerships, media companies—learning the ins and outs of building visibility and engagement. But now, I’m stepping into my super creative era, which inspired my New Millennia™ motto: “A new era. A new you.”
I’m leaning fully into the visionary, creative side of what I do because I’m determined to bring all my ideas to life. But this season isn’t just about me—it’s about helping others realize their dreams too. That’s why, in the “About” section of my website, I invite people to reach out if they have a dream that needs digital support. Whether it’s branding, content, or strategy, I want to help others step into their own New Millennia™ and bring their visions to life.
Is there anything else you’d like to share with our readers?
My dad, Earl Farquharson, always says, “No man is an island” (originally by John Donne), and I believe that wholeheartedly. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to launch that business, switch careers, or pursue your creative vision—this is your sign to go for it. There’s no perfect timing, just faith, strategy, and the courage to start. And if you need support along the way, know that you’re not alone. New Millennia™ is about faith, bold action, and stepping into new opportunities with confidence.
