Meet Portia Canion | Founder of Leading Ladies With A Purpose

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

Hi Portia, is there something that you feel is most responsible for your success?
The most important Factor behind the success of my organization Leading Ladies With A Purpose would have to be character being authentic. If I can change one life for the better, if I could make an impact on one teenage young lady I have fulfilled a purpose . If I can share with them one experience , one decision that can help them grow that I have been through and what I would’ve done different and how they can make better decisions I have done my job .

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I have been in the healthcare field working in varies departments from Administrative office manager to Billing fast forward to today a Medical Assistant and Payroll Clerk along with being the Founder of my own Non profit Organization Leading Ladies With A Purpose . I’ve grown to realize it’s never to late to do what YOU want what’s best for you and I continue to do that each day . I’ve learned many lessons and most of them came with the growth that I’ve successfully achieved with three young kids and a busy schedule it’s not EASY but it CAN be done And I do it because I want to show my kids it can be done . No matter what comes in the way . There will be stumbling blocks but no matter what KEEP pushing .

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I have received such an enormous amount of support , from family , friends , and most importantly the parents of Leading Ladies with A purpose and their teen daughters they have entrusted me with . I appreciate everyone for everything.
