When you think of your favorite foods, are you a sweet person...or do you crave salty treats! Whichever you chose, this episode is bringing you both!

In this episode, I have the opportunity to speak with the wonderful Fatmah Muhammad Williams who is changing the world with her dough. This is not a euphemism for money but ACTUAL DOUGH! Fatmah has mastered the award winning dessert knafeh. Per her website, Knafeh Queens, they layer buttery knafeh dough with mouthwatering sweet and salty cheese filling that is drenched in syrup for a decadent dessert that's fit for royalty!

But this conversation is not all delicious. We will be discussing our experiences with overt racism and what it was like to be a Muslim in the United States immediately after the tragic September 11th events and how Fatmah's kids asked her if they were going to be "kicked out of America" after Trump took office.

Join Fatmah and myself as we discuss:

• Knafeh

• Palestinian

• Racism

• Connection

• Innate Gifts

• Gift of Gab

• San Bernadino Shooting

• Muslim

• Starting a business

• Just Do It

• Opportunities

• Generational Wealth

Recently, I did a call to action in a Facebook Group dedicated to women in Optometry (shout out to you, OD Divas)! I asked if anyone had any experiences that they would like to share regarding a toxic or negative work environment. I was shocked by the amount of my fellow colleagues that reached out to me and the experiences about how they were wronged in the industry.

I believe these stories of women in Optometry need to be told. That is why Latte Money is starting a series called: Seeing Our Truth. This series is dedicated to the Optometrists that have been treated like assistants instead of doctors and have chosen to do something about it! In today's episode, I will be speaking to Dr. Jennifer Smith. Dr. Smith is a the owner of Boreing Vision and her goal is to meet and exceed your expectations by providing friendly service, professional care, and quality products to everyone in Lake Charles at affordable prices.
