Mai Ling has been a huge support of my brand, my branding process, and has been a vehicle to me in achieving my first podcast show. None of it would be possible without her support, ambition, and drive in pushing me to get to the next level. So it’s with great enthusiasm that I endorse Mai Ling and all that she’s doing. I see her as a vehicle of change in the community and an incredible entrepreneur, coach, mentor, and consultant.
