Breaking Through the Glass Ceiling
Today Kemone Hendricks is one of the great inspirational examples that are given addressing the fast-paced progress of women in the 21st century. It is often reflected upon while providing significant evidence of equality. However, in retrospect, there is a story of hard work, struggle and sheer resilience.
Kemone Hendricks spent most of her childhood proving people incorrect and beating the odds. She became an inspiration to women all over the world as an immigrant who never felt like she fit in, overcame an abusive relationship, and had a kid at the age of 16. It was her willpower as a caring mother who was determined to progress and provide for her child. In the process she didn’t let her individuality be compromised, negating the usual of which is expected of mothers. Career or Family? Women shouldn’t be put in a situation to choose is what Kemone through her journey told the world.
Today, she is a mother, a generalist, a creator, a critical thinker, a non-profit leader, a community organizer, the owner of a digital marketing and events company, a social justice activist, a social entrepreneur, and a spiritual being.

Kemone Hendricks in an interview shared: “The pandemic was a challenging period, it is not over yet but I am happy to led the way in my community at the start of the pandemic by organizing lucrative socially distant pop-up shops outdoors for businesses, executing high attendance paid online events and monetizing through export of goods and services and the right partnerships. I am content to have helped many businesses which were then able to stay afloat and continue to duplicate our strategic pandemic plan to this day. Limitless is my motto for 2022 and the coming decades. We are stepping into an era where everyone’s “Inner guru” will be shining oh so brightly.”
