Doctor Designer Donates Shoes

Celebrity shoe designer Taryn Rose is helping women feel their best as they re-enter the workforce. Taryn has a 40 million dollar shoe business, but her beginnings were more humble.

Her family fled from North Vietnam to the South during the Vietnam War and then had to flee again when the South fell. Fortunate to escape the fighting, her family was able to travel to the U.S., Arkansas to be exact, where they were placed in a refugee camp. Taryn's dad, a doctor, knew no one in Arkansas but immediately knew he had to find a sponsor to get his family out of the camp and into a real home. He started cold calling local physicians from a camp pay phone, and had a stroke of luck when a local family took them in. Her Dad's actions taught Taryn a critical lesson about resourcefulness at an early age. He knew what he had to do and wasn't going to give up.

By Mico Coluccio

Every year in the second week of May, we designate a specific day to honor our mothers, known as Mother's Day. With Mother's Day, we come to appreciate every little thing our mother's have done for us, whether that being those delicious meals she prepares for the family, or by doing your load of laundry when you didn't notice it. Either way, our moms have done a lot for us and this day helps us reflect on what they've done to get us where we currently are in our lives.
