 Meet Latrice Fowler of Raising Chefs
Latrice, we have never met in person but I feel like you are family. Your spirit just exudes warmth, love and grace and I am so grateful to have met you! Thank you so much for saying that. I really think that we’ve been put together for a reason. I thank GOD everyday for placing me with people like you. GOD Bless!
When you cook, do you cook with the same spirit of love and fervour? I really do! I love seeing the enjoyment in people’s faces when they’ve tasted my food. They’re expressions show their love for the food I’ve spent so much of my time and love into making. I get more of my own enjoyment from watching reactions then I do creating tasty vittles.
What are your passions? _ GOD! _ Self-Love (Becoming the person I’m suppose to be!) _ Family _ Present & Future Legacy _ Being a Positive Community Figure
We met on the WomenforHire network, which has been such a great networking tool, had you begun your entrepreneurial quest or were you motivated to accomplish things from meeting the women there? The Women For Hire Network has been an exceptional networking tool for everyone that has been privileged to find it. My mother is so big on networking and after seeing a segment on GMA about WFH I immediately logged on to the site and signed up. Although I had already started developing my businesses before joining WHF, it has definitely helped grow, and several opportunities have evolved from being apart of that online community.
What are your aspirations? _ Obeying GOD _ Continue to love and respect myself! _ Elevate my family to our highest potential, and continue to build our legacy! _ Inspire the uninspired!

How do you see your pursuits positively affecting your children? They are so involved, what a great education. I wanted them to be surrounded by someone who was positive and making dreams become a reality. They have absorbed everything they’ve seen me do and have come up with goals of their own. They’ve executed those dreams and goals and are now seeing them come full circle. They believe that if you work hard at something you love and understand that things will get hard along the way. Sticking with it will expose sacrifice and dedication. They are the most awesome kiddos I’ve every met and I thank GOD everyday for trusting that I would be a great fit as their mother! What are some of your short-term goals for the civil rights work you do? _ To continue to be able to mobilize our resources. Be in a position to help were there’s a need. Create awareness on issues within our communities.
What are the long-term goals? Basically the same as the short-term goal. Raising awareness is an ongoing focus!
Latrice, Thank you SO, SO much! We will check in with you soon! All the best to your family!
