Tomorrow I am going to start back up my in person livestreams on a bi-monthly basis.

I am excited to be interviewing this awesome entrepreneur Nayeli Robertson-Garcia who is the owner of Candyality in Wrigleyville.

Here is her Bio:

I came to the United States with just the clothes on my back and a dream. At a young age, I started by creating and selling bookmarks to church members for $0.25 each. My aspirations grew, leading me to earn a degree in Business Administration with a focus in Marketing. Over the past nine years, I have held marketing roles with various companies, small and large, which deepened my understanding of their impact on communities.
Growing up in Chicago, I witnessed the vital role local businesses play, especially during a protest in West Town against the removal of our beloved Mexican grocery store - Edmar. This fueled my desire to contribute to the community through entrepreneurship. When the opportunity arose to acquire Candyality, my husband and I eagerly embraced it, aiming to continue the mission of the company and bringing happiness to others.

Join me tomorrow at noon to learn more about her story and her business.
