We've been following, for a couple of years now, the entrepreneurial journey of a single mother, veteran and determined business woman! Thereasa Black is the owner of the chocolate company, Bon AppéSweet. It's not just your ordinary chocolate company and it's not just your ordinary story. 

In our chat with Thereasa, she shares the ups and downs- the raw story of a veteran mom on a mission to create the best life possible for her and her daughter.

Thereasa says the idea of Bon AppéSweet was "founded in the broken heart of a deployed mother."

She was deployed and had to leave her daughter for 13 months, just before her daughter's second birthday. She was devastated. She spent her deployment thinking of a way that she would never have to leave her daughter again. Her company was born as a promise to never leave her again.

Supporting Thereasa helps her keep that promise to her daughter. 

Check out her shop, Bon AppéSweet!
