About Our Founder
“In 2002, after a lot of soul searching, I founded the Honey Shine Mentoring Program. I wanted to make a difference in the lives of young girls. It is my calling, and now my mission, to teach and learn through mentoring. My commitment to the Honey Shine Mentoring Program is not only spiritually fulfilling, but also feeds my passion for inspiring future leaders. I invite and encourage other women to join me in shining their light to brighten the paths of our young girls.”
Tracy Wilson Mourning is a mentor, designer, broadcast journalist, motivational speaker and soon-to-be published author. She is a graduate of Howard University with a major in Broadcast Journalism and a minor in Business. Born in Cincinnati, Ohio and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada, Tracy is a proud resident of the South Florida community.
In 2002, Tracy founded Honey Shine, a Mentoring program that has been fully dedicated to enriching the lives of young girls. The mission of Honey Shine is to encourage the balance of mind, body, and soul in girls and young women, by providing nurturing experiences that not only illuminate their paths, but also guides their decisions with self-reliance and hope, empowering their future. Honey Shine Inc. offers bi-weekly workshops, after-school programming and a summer camp for girls between the ages of 8-18 with the intent of fostering educational support and positive, enlightening experiences. Honey Shine was created with the sole purpose of educating and supporting girls and women in an effort to prepare them for a bright future filled with endless possibilities. Tracy and the Honey Shine team are currently working to expand the program across the country.
Tracy is also the CEO and founder of TWM by Tracy Wilson Mourning (Honey Child Enterprises, LLC), a life style brand created to encourage women to take time for themselves spiritually, mentally, physically and emotionally. This time of personal reflection and devotion is essential to balancing the multi-faceted aspects of being a “Goddess, Soul Mate, Mother and Friend”, all roles that women play at some time in their lives, either individually or simultaneously.
Tracy is the proud mother of sons Trey and Alijah and daughter Myka. Tracy is grateful for the higher power that guides her life’s path. This spiritual foundation is the central motivation in all that Tracy does, providing her with the peace and empowerment that is reflected in the ideologies of the Honey Shine Mentoring Program and Honey Child Enterprises.
