All success stories are great, especially if the people who achieved their goals had a difficult start, in

which the circumstances seemed to be against them.

Such is the experience of Erika Mejia.

This entrepreneur from Honduras managed to make the American Dream come true for her and her family. Yes, with a lot of effort and dedication on her part.Mejia, who resides in the city of Miami, arrived in the United States in the same way that many Latin American immigrants do, full of expectations, but with little capital.

When she arrived in the state of Florida, she only had $200 and a huge desire to work.And she worked in all available jobs that she could get,

but deep down she always knew that she did not want to be employed all of her life, her real goal was to have her own business.The way for her was never easy, to get through she had to be a secretary, a domestic employee, a salesperson and an assistant in stores.She learned about the floral business in one of the many jobs she had, being completely fascinated with the roses and everything that could be done with them.

After some years perfecting her technique, she managed to become a professional florist.
