Check Out Rhonda Smith’s Story

Today we’d like to introduce you to Rhonda Smith.

Hi Rhonda, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
As a woman of color, intelligence and wisdom has paved the way for me. I am a published author, a Professional Counselor, a full time Doctoral student and CEO of a Financial Consulting Firm.

I also employ people with disabilities and provide services that help them become more independent, in spite of their Barriers to employment.

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Being a single parent of one male creates anxiety in itself. As an involved mom, I am constantly praying for his safety and success. This attributes to his  “being black in America”.

As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I am a Mental Health Professional. I currently employ and engage Disabled Texans. Some choose educational paths that will lead to employment. Others choose employment that develop their career paths.  I also assist in job placement and provide counseling and guidance in the Vocational Rehabilitation process. The ultimate goal of the agency and services is to obtain and maintain Competetive Integrated Employment.

What quality or characteristic do you feel is most important to your success?
The quality that is most important and instrumental in my success as a mother, author, licensed Counselor, and Doctoral Student is….determination and faith in a power, greater than me. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
