NICU Mom, Child Autism, & HG (Hyperemesis gravidarum) Advocate - Public Speaking
Floribama Shore viewers initially fell in love with how Candace encouraged, stood up for, and uplifted her cast mates throughout the seasons. That attribute remains true when the cameras aren’t rolling.
Candace has been a guest speaker at multiple community centers in at risk neighborhoods, on panels for female/mom entrepreneurs, and spoke at multiple high schools where she tailors her message to students around goal setting, encouragement in all different paths, life balance with distractions, and a dedication to a plan.

"Thank you again Candace for coming to the club and engaging the students. You got them thinking about their future and it’s so hard getting them engaged outside their cellphones, you did great.”

“Thank you for your time and for stopping by. The girls loved your energy and were very excited about the pictures and the samples. We would love to have you back for an event next semester.”
