New York's Destiny Designers Teach 'Faithpreneurs' How to Pivot and Reboot After Pandemic Upends Small Business

QUEENS, N.Y. - Aug. 12, 2021 - PRLog -- According to the January issue of Forbes Magazine, this is the perfect time to start a business despite the economic woes caused by the pandemic. Since August is National Black Business Month, the time is right for procrastinators to make the move to create a positive financial legacy with the aid of one conference poised to help startups take that leap.

This week, Destiny Designers University, brainchild of Dr. Stacie NC Grant, launches its annual Faithpreneur weekend on August 12-14, 2021. This training and development platform geared specifically for businesspeople with a core faith is the first of its kind in the region. Keeping in step with the COVID-19 protocols, Faithpreneur Weekend 2021 will be a hybrid encompassing both a virtual and live platform.

You may ask, what is a Faithpreneur? Dr. Stacie NC Grant, the founder and visionary of this life-changing event, puts it this way, "Entrepreneurs are typically individuals who exhibit grit, determination, and resilience to establish and monetize their business idea. Faithpreneurs® just add the element of FAITH." These groundbreaking businessmen and women have a moral compass that guides them along the way.

Dr. Stacie, a powerful advocate for using the Word of God in daily life, goes by the guiding scripture taken from Isaiah 40:13 King James Version. "But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint."

The Saint John's University grad, who has received many awards from the NYS Senate, NYS Assembly, NYC City Council, and the Office of the Governor of NY, encourages dreamers to go after what is gnawing at your soul. If the Lord has given you something to do, do it! Start your own business. Put the blueprint together for that invention that has been stirring inside of you for years. Make steps toward completing that dream of yours. Just remember to put God first.

Dr. Stacie is an award-winning international speaker, a best-selling author of "Action Action Despite the Distraction: 7 Life Lessons to Thrive & Live Your Destiny Now!", as well as an influencer, producer, and the founder of Destiny Designers University®.

The university strives to meet a faith surmountable goal of providing training and development for 1 million cash flow positive Faithpreneurs by 2025.

Highlights of the conference include the "Got Talent Showcase" designed to ignite the entrepreneurial spirit in young people, followed by the Legacy Awards Gala. This year, the committee will honor 10 dynamic trailblazers for their achievements.

The Faithpreneur Winnie Burch Resilience Award will go to someone who exhibits extraordinary faith in the face of adversity, and the Faithpreneur International Pearl Award for someone who is successful in the marketplace. They named both awards for powerful women of faith. Reserved for Friday are breakout sessions chock full of business nuggets that are sure to move businesses to the next level. The highlight of the day is the opening keynote by Jonnel Doris, NYC commissioner of small business services. All workshops will focus on the three foundational Rs for a Faithpreneur's success: relationships, resources, and revenue. Culminating on Saturday, August 14, with Dr. Stacie's weekly VIP Prayer Call to give thanks, and a virtual breakfast.

The conference would not be complete without Dr. Stacie NC Grant delivering her signature keynote address, "Unapologetically Profitable in Business," to seal the festivities.
