FROM THE
EDITOR'S DESK
Hello everyone,
Wow! The 3rd Annual WOW Event is here again. By the time you get this fabulous issue in your inbox, many of you will be sitting at the table enjoying an enjoyable event. I am anxiously excited about it and I believe it is going to be grand. This year is special because a few our participants from the STEP-UP Program will be in attendance. In fact, one of them was featured in our September issue and she is also going to be a vendor; isn’t that exciting? We have been waiting for this day and know it is here and in full blast too. I pray that it will be a day that will be remembered and talked about for many days, weeks and months to come. Because we have worked hard and prayed hard, we are looking forward to the manifestation. Of course, you will not be able to see pictures until the November 2018 issue.
Well let’s talk this October 2018 issue and why I think it is phenomenal. Our cover story is about a remarkable lady named Francine Houston and she takes you on her incredible journey from sickness to entrepreneurship. She is an extremely gifted artist and fashion designer. If you have had an opportunity to see our flyer and you liked

it, she designed it. She is also going to be a vendor at our WOW Event this year. But our featured article is going to be about her journey from Lupus to becoming a business owner. She did not allow this illness to stop her from pursuing her passion, pursuing her dream. You do not want to miss this inspiring story. You do not want to miss her fashions either. From what I saw, she is awesome!
In addition to Ms. Houston, we are still bringing you the best articles dealing with many topics. I told you it was a One stop shop. This magazine presents diversity and flavor for your reading pleasure and it is full of great information, and for you business owners, we have opportunities for you to advertise and get exposure. With well over one thousand subscribers and growing, I would urge you to take advantage of the opportunities to increase your customer base. And oh, by the way, this is the magazine’s anniversary too. We will be two years old on Friday October 19. Incidentally, it was two years ago at the WOW Event that we launched the digital magazine, Discovering You Magazine. That was one of the most exciting moments that I have ever experienced, and we have been committed to bringing you the best articles from our gifted and passionate writers every month. I invite you to take a moment out of your lives to experience what others have gleaned from this publication. Sit down relax in your favorite chair, get your favorite beverage, silence your cell phone and indulge for a time of inspiration, motivation and information as you Discover......Your Own Uniqueness!
Sincerely,
Tunishai Ford
