Growing up on the South-Side of Chicago, enduring childhood traumas, witnessing familial drug and alcohol addiction, losing family members to drug overdose and suicide, rediscovering her worth after failed relationships, overcoming postpartum anxiety, the devastated grief after the loss of her youngest brother to gun violence, opening a luxury retail business (N'DACE) in the midst of a global pandemic, succeeding in multi-family real estate, mentoring under-served youth and providing re-entry tools to those formerly incarcerated, Candace D. Green is the definition of "Beauty For Ashes".
On her journey she has served the public, offering hope through her testimony, providing tools and inspiration to those that are seeking a way out of negativity into the light of destined futures since 2010. Candace speaks to audiences in individual, group, workshops and panel settings, from church establishments, podcasts, to award galas with her overall message being simple; use what was meant to destroy/derail you to heal and encourage others.
Candace has been praised for her business acumen and value-add in the community by Mayor Tom Dailly of Schaumburg, serving alongside 7th District Senator Mike Simmons, fighting for public safety measures that can protect people from gun violence. In addition to being a woman that continues to refine her calling, she has also been acknowledged as a powerhouse in her industry.
