The Glory in Your Story

WINNING IN LIFE AND BUSINESS REQUIRES A KIND OF RISK-TAKING THAT MANY ARE AFRAID TO EMBRACE.

*As the founder and CEO of Mielle Organics, a multimillion-dollar hair and consumer products company, Monique Rodriguez shares the story of how her trials led to triumphs in her family and business.

Growing up on the South Side of Chicago, Monique aspired to emulate the Black women and girls she saw on magazine covers and beauty product labels. After working as a nurse for nearly a decade, Monique realized that God had placed another dream on her heart. After her infant son passed away following months in the NICU on life support, Monique embarked on a journey to transform her pain into purpose and her trials into triumph.

With deep faith and unrelenting determination, she and her husband launched Mielle Organics, one of the fastest-growing hair care brands in the multicultural category, as well as one of the most successful Black-owned businesses in this generation.

Monique’s inspiring story, along with the lessons she’s learned, will encourage you to

• embrace the path God has given you.

• see beyond your circumstances.

• thrive, not just survive.

• be motivated by what matters; and

• inspire others to follow their hearts.

Through trusting the Lord, walking by faith and not by sight, collaborating with others wisely, and seeking to make a lasting impact, you are sure to gain wisdom as you discover the glory in your story through the eyes of a faithful God who guides you each step of the way.
