  • Keep Learning. Keep Growing.

    Hey y'all!!

    On this episode, I am talking about the benefits of continued education. Did you get your license and feel like you've arrived? LOL! Or are you a professional who knows the importance of attending classes and growing as a professional? I hope the latter. 


    Enjoy!

  • LEAP of Faith

    Hey y'all! 

    I am beyond excited to be joined my sister in many ways, Michele Holmes this episode. We both know what it means to take that LAEP OF FAITH to leave one career to pursue something else we are passionate about. In the words of Michele, "being an educator wasn't all roses & sunshine, but neither is entrepreneurship." 


    Michele Holmes 

    At the heart of Skye Confections is educator and award winning cake artist, Michele Holmes. Growing up in Atlanta, Georgia, the time spent with her grandmother at the family soul-food restaurant and home kitchen sparked an interest in baking. While initially pursuing a career in education, Michele continued to be drawn to baking. Since 2011, this self-taught baker/decorator and aspiring bakery boutique owner has perfected a variety of techniques with her fresh homemade cakes as the foundation.   

    For many years Michele balanced a career as an "educator by day, baker by night", however, the pandemic encouraged a pivot. After 10 years, she officially transitioned out of public education. She has now combined her love for cake and education by solely operating Skye Confections LLC as an online bakery and Skye Confections Academy for virtual Cakin’ classes. Michele’s passion for excellence is evident as she strives to create modern desserts which taste just as good as they look and develops classes to help youth and adults learn to do the same. 

    Skye Confections is a business with a heart for people. In addition to planting seeds in the next generation of bakers and cake decorators, Skye Confections has partnered with Icing Smiles, a non-profit organization that provides custom celebration cakes to children impacted by a critical illness since 2015. We believe every person has at least one reason to celebrate and deserves a quality cake. If you are celebrating within the Metro Atlanta area, Skye Confections would LOVE to sweeten your day with a quality PIECE of CAKE!

  • Professionalism & Networking: Yes, it's important!

    Hey y'all!

    In this episode, I am joined by Helen, a Licensed Esthetician and Beauty-preneur based in the Atlanta, Georgia area, to discuss professionalism and networking.

    From an early age, Helen understood the value of the statement, “Looking Good and feeling great”. She also believed the key to this begins with not only knowing yourself, but more importantly, loving yourself. As a licensed skin care and makeup professional, she values the power of having a signature style and clean image while leaving a strong lasting impression. "Every face has a beautiful story to tell and with the right products and techniques that story can cultivate endless opportunities.”  

    Helen has been featured in Hope Magazine for Women, Pagentry & Promtime magazines and IBS success Magazine. She has worked on Orlando Fashion Week, Miami Swim Week, The Season (Film) and countless other productions, photoshoots, pageants and workshops as a makeup artist and licensed skin care professional.  Helen is a graduate of Bethune-Cookman University with a B.S. in Biology and currently in pursuit of her Masters in Cosmetic Science from the University of Cincinnati.
