Guest Speaker: Terri Clay "Living A Life on Purpose"

As the expert in “living a life on purpose”, Terri Clay is the

CEO of Terri Clay Enterprises, a multi-purpose company in

which the uplifting of individuals is a lifestyle. Terri’s

commitment to supporting others has catapulted her into a

success story that is beyond compare.

 

Before realizing her destiny, a 14-year-old Terri entered a life riddled with bad decision-making. Her choices would transpire into an early adulthood of struggle as a single parent. At 21 years old, the mother of four faced domestic abuse and soon after, homelessness. While this would keep many from persevering, Terri would learn how to handle several predicaments at once, and empower herself for the work that would lead her to entrepreneurship.

 

Terri realized her purpose, to motivate others with positive words. With an unyielding love for young people and a passion for travel she began taking the youth of her church on various trips worldwide. With the support of Magazine Street Church in Louisville, KY, Terri came up with ways to raise funds in order for children to travel. Young people were now given the chance to see different people, place and ideas, and a non-profit organization, Steppin’ Out of the Box, was born.

 

She continues to inspire, writing "Walking in Your Purpose” as a featured author in the book 99 Tips to Transform Your Business Today, a collective work of other female entrepreneurs compiled by business strategist Saideh Browne. Terri will soon release her own book, From Fab to Fierce, in September 2011. Her FIERCE clothing line will complement the book launch. Visit her at http://terryclayinspires.com
