"I can."

Those two, POWERFUL words represent a major turning point in the life of successful entrepreneur and author, Carrie Johnson. After struggling with addiction and requiring government assistance as a single mother, Carrie channeled the voice of her mother ("where there's a will there's a way.") and found her way.

Carrie started cleaning offices nights for extra money.  What started as a three-person cleaning service (Carrie, her sister and a girlfriend) grew to a $3.5 million company with 165 employees, servicing government and corporate clients in four New England states! After selling the business in 2002, Carrie focused her career on writing and teaching and currently is living a life she loves!

Join us as Carrie shares her INSPIRATIONAL story, focusing on her entrepreneurial journey from welfare to successful business owner; and, most recently, published author of the Muriel Mabley mystery series.

You can find her books, From the Pits to the Palace: One Woman's Journey to Self-realization Through Entrepreneurship, Hot Flash, and Cold Flash online.
