M.I.C. Episode 49 - The Power Of Words

Check out Season 4, Episode 49 - The Power of Words, with Twyla Garrett an exceptional serial Entrepreneur, motivational speaker, homeland security strategist, and compelling author. Twyla is the founder of Growth Management Services (GMS), a Construction Program Management Firm with revenues of over one million dollars within three years of opening, and Integrated Responders Group (IRG), a Full Services Independent Claims Management Firm. She currently resides between Washington, DC and Raleigh, North Carolina, where she manages her multi-successful businesses. Her new book My Mother’s Words is a motivational study on how individuals can turn their worst experiences into their greatest triumphs. We discuss turning pain and adversity into triumph. Twyla details how she took the pain of her childhood and used it as fuel and motivation to become a successful black woman in the construction industry. Listen to her story!!!

Twyla is known for her notable (oftentimes 100% self-funded) business deals, and she strives to provide excellent opportunities for individuals faced with immense personal and social challenges, especially related to abuse. At GMS, she seeks out the homeless and ex-offenders for a second chance and offers them full-time sustainable work. With her ability to speak on delicate and motivational topics, Twyla has been personally invited to The White House to speak on issues relating to creating jobs, economic growth, and the controversial fiscal cliff of 2012. Twyla is also passionate about helping individuals become meaningful persons in life and writes books on how young and emerging entrepreneurs can scale their businesses, so they are big enough to create sustainable employment to those living within their communities.
