Grabbing Opportunities with Both Hands, with Dietra Jones

Dietra Jones is a divorced, single mom “graduate,” as she puts it, who jumped the corporate ship over 15 years ago after 30+ years supporting executives in the corporate arena. Having always had numerous “side hustles” since the age of 15, continuing even alongside her corporate career, Dietra immediately began firing on all cylinders of entrepreneurship. As a newly separated and single mom, working on network marketing, e-commerce, ministry, and caring for her three little boys took up to 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Eventually, Dietra became a consultant, providing administrative, operations, sales, and marketing support to a range of industry real estate investors. Other single mothers began to ask questions about how she managed it all. Thus, SingleMom Ministry was born. Fast forward 20 years, and here she is again jumping into the world of real estate, intending to empower single moms by helping them to become homeowners, start businesses, and achieve their goals in life.
