We had the good fortune of connecting with Patricia Holland and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Patricia, what do you want people to remember about you?
What I want my legacy to be is leaving a lasting impact on people I know. I want people to remember me as someone who made a difference in their lives, I hope to be remembered as someone who always strived to do my best and pushed others to do the same and reach their full potential.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
My employment as a former Law Enforcement corrections officer, my teen years, and my mother’s parenting equipped me with a unique set of qualities that set me apart from others in my field. I take great pride in my work, and I am constantly excited about meeting and talking with individuals. My journey to where I am today has not been easy, but I have overcome numerous challenges through determination. Along the way, I have learned things that have improved me both personally and professionally. I want the world to know that me, my brand and my story are all woven together to assist others in any way possible. I am committed to providing support to individuals in their journey.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Kick back at my home

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
First and foremost, I want to thank God without him I could not have made it this far, he ordered my footsteps through every session of this ministry so I do give him all the glory, I also want to thank every person from the opening of our doors in 2012 up until this very date who has volunteered with the All Things New Inc, each person played a part in helping with the needs at the time we needed it I have to say that God sent the right people at the right time, And a shout to Ms. Battle for the introduction to you. A special shout out to my husband Wallace for standing beside me through all the ups and downs over the years.
