Tesha learned to be innovative after years of challenges and struggles of trying to make ends meet pay check to pay check, and sometimes no paycheck at all, while relying solely on the Lord. She realized at that point that if I was going through this, and I was struggling in my own fear, shame, and embarrassment, she could only imagine how other women were feeling, whether they had children or not. That's when she decided to start her Gideon's Army of Women Networking conferences and Become a Gideon's member, both of which would come with VIP perks. She realized there aren't many organizations that help and support women. So she decided to figure ways to help women become financial free of the burden of not having enough, when serving a God who has more than enough. Gideon's Army Of Women arose from a sense of inadequacy and insecurity. She thought the Lord wanted her to coach out of it at first, but it evolved into a monthly networking conference outing for women to connect with and get to know one another. It was here that she would create a platform for women to use through innovation, allowing them to connect and bond like a true army of women.
