BLACK GIRL MAGIC
Just recently, Shay Sane was asked how her competitive drive in life has greatly helped propel her to reap sustained entrepreneurial success.
“My competitive drive has always pushed me to strive for excellence and resilience,” Sane told Making Headline News during an exclusive interview.
It is due in large part to her resilience that has Sane has been blessed mightily to fulfill her divine purpose as the face of Black Girls On The Go® (BGOTG)/Black Girl Travel Movement™ (BGTM), her Clearwater, Florida-based featured business endeavor that is in the midst of commemorating its 10th year of existence.
As part of Making Headline News’ advance national coverage of Sarah Jakes Roberts’ Second Annual Woman Evolve Conference that takes place September 26-28 from Globe Life Field in Arlington, Sane, 54, emphasized, among other things, it is because of her fervent drive that has helped her to develop the determination needed to create a credible wellness brand, one that has become a fixture for empowering “strong black women” —- or “SBW,” as she suitably acknowledged — to prioritize their mental health and well-being.
