Ashro Woman: Pamela S.
Meet Ashro Woman of the Week, Pamela from Milledgeville, GA
This beautiful wife, mother and grandmother is also an author, businesswoman, and caseworker for the state of Georgia! All of these things flow from her faith as a born-again Christian. “I love helping people, especially children.”
This is evident in the fact that even when she was on her own and single, Pamela chose to be a foster mom. Now married with children and grandchildren, she continues to emulate her own mother, the greatest influence in her life. Pamela believes in the importance of truly listening to her children and grandchildren—and of teaching them to put God first.
No doubt, these teachings come back to bless Pamela in her business venture. She and her daughter have an online hair business together, Sugaplums Hair Collection, where her daughter makes wigs to order. Pamela also makes time for her own pursuits, like writing. Her greatest triumph thus far has been publishing her first book, “When Makeup Can’t Cover the Pain,” a book that encourages women to open up to one another.
