I AM DR. SIDJAE PRICE
A Best Selling Author, Speaker, and Entrepreneur who strongly believes in God, Planning, and Overcoming Adversity.
ALIGNED WITH MY GREATER PURPOSE
God's plan
Adversity. It has driven me to being an entrepreneur, speaker and author. I was born in Los Angeles California with a silver spoon. But, after my parents separated the spoon got rusty. Within a matter of time I was in a single parent household, with little income living in Jamaica, a few years later New York and soon after that Florida. I have received food from Food for the Poor, lived with neighbors, worked two jobs to pay my college tuition, battled depression, severe panic attacks and have faced many more adversities. But I am no victim; as with each adversity I faced, I took it as a learning lesson, built a plan and allowed my purpose to be birthed.
“You should always have a plan. Whether it is college, business or a career, you must have a plan. Once you create the plan, execute it with faith.”
I truly do believe that everything is aligned for our greater purpose, and to live in your purpose you have to live without boundaries. In other words remove your limited beliefs from God’s potential. Without the adversities I faced I would have failed to be in alignment with my purpose. This belief has lead me to being a multi-passionate individual, committed to breaking the stereotypes of millennials, and the driving force behind my companies.
the unplanned story
Before turning to business, I worked for a government agency, a private university, and was an academic advisory board member for Florida’s third largest not for profit university. In these roles I facilitated policy creation and implementation, program development, and training. Separate from those roles I facilitated and lead a mission trip to Cuba, created service projects and volunteered with non-profit organizations and grass roots organizations throughout the United States and the Caribbean. As I believe in “Sprinkling Goodness in the World”. Fun fact: All of my companies were influenced by the work I did while having a traditional 9-5. A few were influenced by things I learned while in business.
