Chopping it up with Annette Hankerson, Lets talk NFT's and Crypto!!
Who is Annette Hankerson
I'm a Mother of 3 daughters, a Grandmother of 6 & a Great Grandmother of 1.
I have a host of Bonus Grandchildren. I love Spreading Love and information to all that will listen.
I wasn't the kind of young person that loved school. I felt I was only going to College to please my parents and follow
in their footsteps. I knew I wanted to be my own Boss. I did'nt like to be told what to do.
Although my parents told us to go to school, get good grades to get a good JOB, just didn't seem like the only way.
I started a family pretty early in life. But, that didn't stop me from wanting more. I had several businesses, none of which made
me wealthy.
Fast forward, I've learned that you must have the right mindset in order to be successful, along with reading the right books.
I will not limit myself to teaching others how to NOT give up on themselves.
I'm a very transparent and humble Women of God.
