WHAT MOTIVATED YOU TO START YOUR BUSINESS?
Kyra Mitchell Lewis: I was overwhelmed and out of whack. I started a journey in 2019 to establish boundaries to live and walk in purpose. As I began to make a positive change in my life, I would speak to other women who seemed to be experiencing the same thing. Later, I started to Glow Up, Gyrl, to be a community for women to connect, learn, and share, a place where we can celebrate each other, affirm ourselves, and learn from each other.
