You Matter Agency Leadership

---

It’s been a long journey learning to believe in myself. My childhood and early adulthood were filled with challenges—being manipulated, picked on, and growing up without a strong support system. For years, I doubted my abilities and put my dreams on hold.

Everything began to change when I met my wife, Rebecca. She always told me I had it in me to accomplish great things, even when I couldn’t see it for myself. One day, she encouraged me to go after my high school diploma. I still wasn’t sure I could do it, but I took the test anyway—and I passed. That moment became the first step in my education journey.

At 37, I earned my GED. At 40, I earned my bachelor’s degree. And at 44, I completed my master’s degree. Along the way, I learned how powerful it is to have people who believe in you—and how much changes when you start believing in yourself.

This is why we built You Matter Agency: to create a safe, encouraging space where people can feel comfortable being themselves and chasing their dreams. We remind our hosts and creators that their voices matter, and we urge them to speak up if they ever feel uncomfortable or face bullying. Whether online or in the real world, never give up—it’s never too late to accomplish your dreams.

Special Thank You
To my wife, Rebecca—my partner of 21 years—for always supporting me in every idea and journey I’ve taken. You’ve been my rock through it all. I love you.

And to Shelby—thank you for believing in this vision from the very beginning. You’ve been a motivator, a grounding force, and a true friend. You rock.

 I strive to do the best I can, not only for myself but for my family. I have been a stay at home mom for about 7 years and I always felt judged for that. I felt like I couldn't spend my husbands money even though its "our" money. I felt so many mixed emotions, that I had to bottle them down. I started to do Tiktok about a year ago, from making content to doing the Tiktok shop. I started to see money coming in but I was getting judge and hearing chatter that "I guess thats what stay at home moms do" or "they really don't pay out much". That pushed me to keep going and I have and I am exceeding. 

I started working a Tiktok agency with a good friend that I met on the app, Brandon. Brandon and I have started from ground zero many times with this agency and now we're growing faster than ever and I couldn't be anymore estatic where we are. I give all thanks to Mr. Brandon for taking a chance on me when he asked me to run the agency with him, we make a great team and with that there is no stopping us now. 

Never let the negativity bring you down, make it your motivation. Don't push yourself because of what others say about you, push yourself because you know you can complish the task at hand.

 My husband Mario of 8 years has always been my biggest motivation. He's helped paid my way through school when we first started dating 13 years ago to now cheering me on with the growth of this agency I help run.
