Personal Bio

Dr. Carmen Thomas, was born in Albion, MI. A small community where she was raised by a village which included her grandparents and family contributing to her entrepreneurial aspirations. Her family worked careers, owned businesses and were in political positions. 

I am married to my wonderful husband Miller, 30 years now, Wow, where did the time go and yes we are still friends and love hanging out with each other. we are a blended family with five adult children, and and grand legacies ranging from young adults to single digits. We love spending time with our family, married couples and going on vacations.

I have over 30 years of experience in owning and operating entrepreneur businesses including a real estate company that coached foreclosure prevention, first-time home ownership programs, and credit repair.  My experience of drowning in almost a million dollars’ worth of real estate debt in 2007, and coming out after five years without (smelling like smoke) filing bankruptcy has afforded me the opportunity to believe I can accomplish anything I focus on and so can you!

I am an author, coach, consultant, mother, friend, grandma, aunt, sister and wife.  I Love Empowering Women to Create Systems, Legacies and to Become Recession-Proof! As a young girl, the first 11 years of my life, I grew up in the projects, so I know what it’s like to be transformed by renewing your mind, I lived that life! I believe it’s important for women to on the Self-Esteem of a woman to be whole, balanced and give themselves permission to become their best and highest self.

Reminder to Self Daily: My Identity is not the labels I wear or the challenges I’ve overcome. I Am A Phenomenal Woman, I Am An Asset, I Love to Empower Women and their Legacies to Succeed on their own terms and Live their Dreams Out Loud. We Are Unstoppable!!
