Art & Autism

1. My son Richard has been my inspiration to develop my idea. Despite being diagnosed with Autism at age three, Richard has shown incredible resilience and strength. Every day, he strives to better himself. I am inspired by the impact he has had on my life and his own remarkable accomplishments.

2. Since starting this nonprofit organization, my priorities have undergone significant changes, particularly in decision-making. I have come to understand that consistency and order are crucial for a nonprofit to thrive. Without these essential attributes, the organization could face numerous challenges.

3. When launching any business, there are always opportunities for improvement. Starting from scratch provides valuable learning experiences that foster business growth. Embracing failures and learning from mistakes are integral parts of this journey, propelling us forward.

4. I chose to register this company as a nonprofit organization because it enables me to help children embrace art as a hobby. Witnessing children communicate and thrive in a joyful environment gives me a sense of fulfillment and reassurance that I am making a productive difference.

5. Overcoming the fear of failure was the most significant challenge I had to face. I constantly reminded myself that I was capable of success. Self-belief is the foundation for gaining the confidence needed to build a successful business.

6. What sets Leo Lion Club Foundation, Inc. apart is its unique approach. We raise awareness about Autism through art and provide support for today’s youth. The concept of incorporating painting as a means of expression resonates with children of all ages, while parents appreciate its value in the Brooklyn communities we serve.

7. My advice would be to remain dedicated to your mission and always appreciate those who support and contribute to your business’s growth. Parents who join you on this journey and the children who bring joy to your establishment deserve your gratitude. Additionally, practicing courtesy and effective time management can greatly assist you.

8. Success is determined by the level of effort you are willing to invest in taking your business to the next level. What you receive from your business is proportional to what you put into it. This dedicated effort can lead to great results, such as success, growth, and financial gain.

9. The most enjoyable aspect of starting my company has been the overwhelming positive response from everyone, especially on social media platforms. The recognition and appreciation for the Leo Lion Club Foundation, Inc. reaffirm the honor I feel in serving children with autism and the communities we engage with.

Published

Brooke Sandoval

In a heartwarming tale of perseverance and passion, Brooke Sandoval has embarked on a culinary adventure with the launch of her very own cooking company, Brookies Kitchen. Motivated by her deep love for cooking, her family, and the infectious joy she brings to people’s faces through her delicious creations, Brooke’s journey is as inspiring as it is heartwarming.

The spark that ignited Brookies Kitchen was Brooke’s unwavering dedication to her kids and her family. Faced with the challenges of caring for her son, who suffers from the rare syndrome of Treacher Collins, and requiring 24-hour watch under certified supervision, Brooke found herself unable to work in a traditional setting. However, instead of letting this setback deter her, she turned to her passion for cooking as a means of both creative expression and financial support for her family.

Drawing inspiration from her grandmothers, KC and Christina, Brooke honed her culinary skills and developed a unique flair for creating mouthwatering dishes that not only delighted the taste buds but also warmed the heart. Her kitchen became a sanctuary of love and creativity, where she poured her soul into every recipe, infusing them with the love and care that only a devoted mother could provide.

For Brooke, nothing compares to the joy of cooking and sharing her creations with her family, friends, and even her children’s friends. The smiles that light up the faces of those who taste her food are a testament to the passion and dedication she pours into every dish. It is this joy, this connection with others through food, that drives Brooke to continue pursuing her culinary dreams despite the challenges she faces.

Brookies Kitchen is not just a business venture for Brooke; it is a labor of love, a testament to the power of family, and a celebration of the simple joys that come from sharing a delicious meal with those we hold dear. As Brooke continues to grow her company and share her culinary gifts with the world, she remains rooted in the values of love, family, and the transformative power of a home-cooked meal.

In a world filled with challenges and uncertainties, Brooke Sandoval and Brookies Kitchen stand as a shining example of resilience, love, and the enduring power of food to bring people together. With every dish she creates, Brooke is not just feeding stomachs; she is nourishing souls and spreading joy one bite at a time.

The Foundational Steps of Divine Wisdom and Purpose By: Ladaro (Monsta Yo) Pennix II and Colin Randolph

The Foundational Steps of Divine Wisdom and Purpose

This project originally started as an examination of our past, aiming to expose our mistakes and explore our transformation over time. Monsta Yo and I wanted to compare how we had evolved from a regretful period to where we are now. However, delving into our painful memories from decades of incarceration revealed disturbing and disheartening experiences. We realized how deeply we had been involved in destructive behaviors towards others and ourselves, driven by violence, hatred, and fury. Our lives had been shaped by a system that perpetuated hatred and violence, leaving us unable to understand why we behaved the way we did.

Reflecting on our past proved to be emotionally draining, prompting us to shift our focus towards exploring the factors that shaped us into the men we are today. Monsta Yo suggested concentrating on our foundational beliefs, leading to the creation of “The Foundational Steps of Divine Purpose and Wisdom.” We found that scripture had a profound impact on our lives and decided to center our project around its teachings.

I gathered scriptures that had influenced me significantly and discussed their practical applications, especially for those who are incarcerated. Monsta Yo, with his theological expertise, provided insights into the power and wisdom of these scriptures, enriching our reflections. Together, we brought passion, perspective, and purpose to each discussion, resulting in the title “The Foundational Steps of Divine Wisdom and Purpose.”

Through this project, we realized that examining our past was not just about acknowledging our mistakes but understanding the journey of our transformation. Our painful memories laid the foundation for our growth, highlighted through our reflections on scripture’s wisdom and purpose. This project evolved into a testament to our faith and the transformative power of scripture.

Monsta Yo’s theological insights complemented my reflections, offering a deeper understanding of the scriptures’ impact. By blending personal experiences with theological wisdom, we created a compelling exploration of the Divine wisdom and purpose found in scriptures.
