Refined By Fire: A Journey of Faith, Healing, and Purpose

"You are not what tried to break you. You are the evidence of what healing can become.”

 In this powerful WHEN Story, Paquita Purnell shares how a single moment with her daughter changed everything — and led her on a faith-fueled journey of healing, entrepreneurship, and purpose.

From surviving mental health struggles and domestic chaos to building two thriving businesses and leading a legacy event for Black women in business, Paquita’s story is one of grit, grace, and God.

💛 If you've ever asked:
Can I really start over?
Is it too late to heal?

Can faith and entrepreneurship coexist?
 …this talk is your answer.

🔥 You’ll hear about:
Surviving depression, single motherhood, and toxic relationships

Starting a business from purpose and pain

Finding your identity outside of titles

Stepping into leadership through legacy

Taking your power back — even when your past is watching


👑 Watch this talk if you're ready to stop surviving and start building. Because the fire didn’t destroy her. It refined her.
