This week on Live on Edgewood, Scotty ATL and cohost Erica Duchess brought humor, real talk, and deep insights during an engaging interview with Stella Daniels. Taking place at “Grills by Scotty” in Atlanta, the conversation highlighted Stella’s dynamic journey from Dallas, Texas, to building a multifaceted career while raising three children.
As a devoted mother of two daughters, aged 12 and 10, and a 6-year-old son, Stella spoke about her commitment to her children’s education and aspirations. She encourages her daughter’s dream of becoming a pediatrician and maintains open communication despite challenges in balancing her professional and personal life.
Growing up, Stella was raised by her mother, who was in a same-sex relationship for 15 years, alongside her sister. She credited her mother for creating a stable and loving environment, despite her father’s absence due to substance use issues. This upbringing instilled in her the resilience she now brings to her life as a mother and entrepreneur.
On the business front, Stella juggles multiple ventures, including a real estate portfolio with properties like an Airbnb in Egypt. She discussed the difficulties of maintaining privacy in her personal life, revealing that a family member had disclosed details about her work to her children prematurely. While this presented a challenge, Stella has taken it as an opportunity to have honest conversations with her kids about life and values.
Stella also shared her aspirations for the future, including her plans to pursue a law degree in family and criminal law. With only four credits left to apply to law school, she aims to continue her education once her youngest child turns 10, demonstrating her commitment to personal growth and professional development.
Throughout the interview, Stella emphasized the importance of mental and physical health, especially in her industry. She spoke candidly about navigating work-life balance and credited her supportive partner for helping her maintain a strong foundation for her children.
