Love-Lust-Friendship-Or Games: Which Relationship Do You Feel You’Re In?

Empress was born in Puerto Rico but raised in Trinidad & Tobago West Indies, along with five siblings, by her mom and dad. At the age of 17, she ventured alone to the U.S. in search of a better life, leaving her family behind. Her path and determination for success began when she encountered challenging times over the years. It was those challenging times that Empress realized how imperative it is to know yourself, know what you want in life and proceed towards it, regardless of the obstacles faced. Empress knows that the challenge to overcome just to achieve is not an easy road. But she’s cognizant that the reward at the end of the tunnel is worth the journey in getting there. Over the years, harsh experiences in life coupled with life lessons she learned from those of others, helped mold her into the successful woman she is today. She believes that, in spite of the many disappointing experiences that not a few of us suffer in relationships, true love actually exists because her parents met at 21 years old, got married at age 23 and stayed happily married until her mother’s untimely demise at the tender age of 59. It was from her parents’ life together that Empress was able to keep her firm belief that true love and loving relationships still do exist despite the selfishness seen in the world we live in today. Sometimes we just have to weed out the bad seed and wait a bit before that “one” makes his or her final destination – into our lives.
