Tyka Calloway is the founder of Purely Wrapped LLC., an organic skincare and natural pain mediation company that's affordable for every household income. Purely Wrapped was born out of love for her children and an allergic reaction that almost claimed the life of her mother. When her oldest daughter was born, she wanted to only use organic products on her skin. So began her journey with essential oils. She started creating butters and "potions" of her own. Years later her mother was crippled with a bout of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome due to an allergic reaction from a prescribed medication. Her pain levels were off the charts and nothing was working. As her frustrated caregiver, she knew she had to find a natural source of pain mediation. So she created the Pain Salve for her. For centuries Essential Oils have been used to enhance our body's natural rejuvenation. The world has used these plant-based oils for a wide variety of emotional and wellness applications, which is why she wholeheartedly believes in what they do. Her favorite quote from Albert Einstein says it all: "Only a life lived in service to others is worth living". Enjoy the episode! And we always appreciate a great review and sharing us with others!

He is also an incredible human being who has dedicated a tremendous amount of time, energy, and money toward feeding the homeless community in Charlotte building up an amazing Food Pantry.

Upon graduation, he continued to manage restaurants and hospitality along with offering private chef services in the Charlotte metro area.

Five years later, with more than twenty employees and the ability to cater events for 500+ guests, he is considered one of the best in Charlotte.
