I had the awesome opportunity to participate in the unstoppable conference in 2019. I was one of the keynote speakers at the conference. I was prepared to share my story of success and my struggles. My goal was to inspire women to move forward and to dream big. To my surprise as I poured into the conference attendees my cup was filled as well. I was inspired by the awesome stories of success and triumph that the attendees and the other speakers shared. As I sat at the conference I realized that there was more inside of me. Untapped gifts, talents and dreams that needed to be cultivated. I realized that I too was “Unstoppable” that nothing could keep me from my God designed destiny and my quest to create generational wealth for my family. In that moment I realized it was bigger than a job and a high paying salary it was about leaving my mark on this world, by doing what I love while helping others achieve their dreams. I spent much time in prayer after the conference, seeking God for more asking him specifically what was the next move? He answered…I challenged my fears and became a licensed Realtor. I stepped out on faith and followed the instructions and in less than a year I became a million dollar producer. The conference lit a fire in me that will never die! Thanks to the vision of Dr. Carmen and one comment she made that stuck with me, “exposure creates desire”. Due to my exposure to the Unstoppable conference and the amazing group of women my desire for more was sparked and my dreams came alive and I’m walking and experiencing my blessed life, living life to the fullest and enjoying the journey. I highly recommend the Unstoppable Conference it was a life changing experience for me and will be for you as well.

I'm Vicky one of the winners of Transformation GEMS mentorship program. Just for a moment I'll like to give you a little insight on how rewarding and helpful this organization is.
We all know as women in business it's hard to find women who's actually Real, Patience, Persistent, Nurturing, Supportive, and Endeavor to see us win. NOT, Transformation GEMS mentorship program it's phenomenal !!!! The program is short, very educational, and motivational. I have enjoyed every second listening, and learning from Carmen Thomas be it one on one, conference calls, webinars, emails, etc....
We learned about Finances, Structure, Networking, Fundraising, Planning Events, just to name a few. And, We received CASH to help support our business.
Carmen, I thank you for the prayers, your time, and all you're doing to help women in business. I pray God bless you a hundred fold in the name of Jesus!!
We are Women with PURPOSE!! and Nothing formed against us shall prosper!!

My name is Ashley “A’Jai” Necole, I am a participant in the GEMS program founded by Carmen Thomas. This last few months under this program and the coaching has been a life changing experience for me! After my first coaching session with Carmen I realized there is invaluable time and energy saved with having a business coach to guide you and help you structure and get clear on your vision.
I wouldn’t do it any other way now that Carmen has made me aware of the power I have with her wisdom, incredible intelligence and compassion for the success of women entrepreneurs and her understanding of the challenges we face daily that keep us from pursuing our dreams. As a single mother having many challenges at the time she has helped me create a system for my life and business.
I would recommend ANY and EVERY woman that has an idea for a business or a book to participate in the GEMS program it will literally enhance your life and give you the tools and resources you need to make you vision a reality.
I am a former college player and college assistant basketball coach, currently coach for Everett High school ⅞ grade boys & girls basketball. I have experience and have studied education & child development.
I am using that education and connection with my players and students to be the FIRST and only program in the area combining mentoring and basketball.
As a former basketball coach and youth mentor my first phase of my business as an after school program. As the winner of the GEMS pitch contest I have broken my program down into 3 phases, the first being a lunch and after school program that take place at local schools which is currently being planned at Everett, Sexton & Waverly high schools (open to any schools interested).
The second phase will be the purchase of a building to run mentoring and basketball skills training that will later evolve into a basketball and mentoring academy, possibly even a school. I know this is the solution to the gun violence and destruction of our troubled youth and families and I have seen the transformation with my own eyes. I have also seen what happens in cities where there is no place to connect with mentors or opportunities and I plan to change that with #Thework Youth Empowerment Center - 2019!
Without this program and the coaching of Carmen I KNOW I wouldn’t have developed such a clear system for myself. Most importantly I would not BELIEVE in myself enough to pursue it with this type of faith. I know the value and impact this type of program and business has been and will be for our youth and next generation of athletes and young people in general.
I have established amazing resources and connections through the GEMS program, just in the few weeks of business coaching I was able to finally complete and soon to be publish my mentoring workbook for my youth and parents who participate in the program! I had been working on it for two years and within a few weeks I finished and published it just strictly off of resources! I am officially an AUTHOR! (Search #Theworkbook -Theworkbook on Amazon.com)
I said all that to say this! If you want to be successful as a woman entrepreneur you must have a woman like Carmen and program like GEMS to back you! That is a guaranteed way to create your own roadmap to success with a coach that can guide you all the way to the finish line!
