Tweetable Quotes:

  • “There’s a whole life out there that I feel that people just need to accept people no matter who they are. And this in 2023, if we’re all about diversity and inclusion, that should be the practice. No matter who you are, and what organization that you belong to, you should make sure that everyone feels accepted and able to be themselves.” – Stacie King
  • “Even after I stopped working with clients, you know, in the relationship, I really feel like I marry every client that I’ve ever worked with and we kind of lock arms. And we were cheerleaders and champions for one another.” – Stacie King
  • “Once you become active, even if it’s just social posts, then you can kind of expand and you can start doing video marketing. And you can start doing interviews in your community, talk to your clients, talk to people that you volunteer with, if it’s your church, that’s important to you start talking to people that you may know from church, that own businesses, doesn’t all have to be about you. And if you need help, reach out to other people, whether it be me or others, there are others out in the industry that would be more than happy to give you advice.” – Stacie King
