This is such an honor! Thanks to @moviemartin (AKA Martin Haro) I had so much fun doing this interview for Miami Living Magazine, I hope to inspire so many more people throughout my career! Check out a portion of the interview:
Loren Ridinger never saw herself sitting on top of the world. How could she-her start in life was not what anyone would call auspicious. She was born in Flushing, setting in Greensboro, North Carolina. Her family was of humble means. When Ridinger was 21, she lost her mother, her family’s fearless leader. She had to set up and take care of her two younger brothers and her own daughter, Amber, now 18. Life had dealt her what seemed like a challenging deck of cards. The farthest Ridinger ever allowed herself to see herself going was a TV studio-she dreamed of being a newscaster or talk show host. These days, the Miami based businesswoman and philanthropist does make it to the studio- as a guest. Not to mention the board rooms of her many companies, and the countless photo shoots or red-carpet events to which she is invited, were rubs elbows with a bold-faced group of BFF, including Jennifer Lopez, Eva Longoria Parker and the Kardashians. This is the result of 20 years of hard work and entrepreneurial savvy.
