I still have hope cause im 46 and many times i felt hopeless. No husband , no children, no house and just depressed and fearful. Thank you for having her here speaking life to our dreams.
Keep the faith, God will give it you.
Keep having faith in God, I got married at the age of 41.
I have friends that got married ,after 50( first time).There is hope, forget the naysayers and " hitting the wall crew".
I am 57 no children never been married and living with a family member for 7 yrs. Now. I am believing GOD has something for me as well as yourself.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My dear,why not adobt? There is lots of kids waiting for someone caring.
WOW, She's telling my story about joining several businesses, starting a business, and not doing as well as I could because of being scared of success.❤ Thank you for telling your story.🙏🏾
I realized years ago that I was afraid to succeed. She is so motivating.
I'm am as well. So afraid of failure but I've come to realize that I'm also a bit afraid of success. I have to find a way to move it. It's so crippling.
@@gapeach7814 I am also ! I’m praying to God to get me out of this because I know God has so much for me!
How do we get comfortable with the thought of success. I'm on the same boat, and I realized that it shows a lack of trust and faith in God. It must come to an end 😔
😢😢 I just realized this after listening to her say it! 😊😊 But I'm not going to be any longer! 🥰🥰🥰
What are you afraid of afraid of being rich that's something you should overcome very quickly I suggest follow your heart follow your soul you know you're not living your real life life you dream of if you know you're capable of creating your mind paint your world tongue in your hard work carves it into existence Japan getting that money girl it's waiting on you always believe in yourself you believe in God will deliver your prayers 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
Just purchased the book. One of my biggest takeaways is nothing is wasted with God. She mentioned a passage in scripture about sowing in tears and reaping in joy. My pastor preached on this passage in Psalms 126:5-6 recently. Thank you for having her on to share such an important message. I needed it and receive it.
Love that! Thanks for sharing!
Amen🙏🏽
Amen
I took too long to watch this. Omg I have chills. I needed to hear her struggle and her power. I'm still scared but I started my business. I am walking by faith and not by sight. Thank you for this
How is your business going? The reason why I’m asking is because something I believe wonderful happened here and I think this must be God making this happen.
I wrote a comment to the lady that created the cupcake business and her comments from people have come to me. I kept getting them but did nothing but work out my business specifics. But as I came to this last component I was trying to figure out how I was going to obtain the people who need or could use my gift from God and it keeps bringing me to the people who commented to her cupcake business. I did nothing with this until I got to this last compensation. You see in my business I want to help people go strait to their passionate gift from God but I don’t want money for payment I just want to accept a supply for my passionate gift from the Divine.
I think he must be pointing me to this direction. I have told many people who have come to my studio pretty much the same thing and I believe God hears me. What do you think?
Mignon and I had French class together in high school. So happy to hear of her success. Congratulations, Mignon!!! May God continue to bless you and your family.
That is awesome!
Literally every word she’s saying sounds like me! I’m 33 with two kids only lol but I feel sooo behind and I had a business and other business ideas but I don’t follow through and I’m also AFRAID TO SUCCEED! I’m afraid I’ll loose time with my kids I’m afraid of being successful! That’s crazy!
This is a beautiful amazing story and testimony I can learn from , I love how she put God first and obedient to God when He speaks to her , God is good all the time God is good,
Omg!!! I literally said the same thing to my sister years ago! “I’m afraid to be successful.“ I’ve still been afraid but seeing this now, I know it’s time for me to be bold in 2023! 🙌🏾
Thank you for this video ❤
Girlllll you got me speaking in tongues over here by min 38!!! Glory to God!!!! Fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 thank you for encouraging me because I'm in that situation now of survival mode but yet with business ideas I KNOW God gave me but praying about how to start with low to no cash THANK YOU 💞
I felt this in my soul.....feeling lost, fear, having too many business ideas, not falling thru...etc. Spring cleaning and found my idea journal, dust it off, flipped thru and it all came together! Blessings and prosperity to all! 🥰
I ordered cupcakes from The Cupcake Collection last year for my niece's HS graduation party. Her Mom also purchased some from a local business in GA. ALL of Mignon's cupcakes were eaten. I cannot remember how many I ordered but I believe it was at least 24. I called her staff to place the order gave the wrong date had to call them back. The Cupcakes had to arrive the day before the party! They did I followed the direction which accompanied them and everyone asked where did those cupcakes come from. Awesome is not the word!!! May you continue to follow God's guidance.
Her story is similar to mine. Only 1 kid, but graduated early, had son in college, went back, waking up at 3am and hearing God, built business, made money, currently blessed with six figure job, and deciding now where he wants my steps to be. I am not operating in my gifts however have used them before. This weekend I have my Inspiration book and listening to HIM.
This mighty woman of God is preaching today! She is speaking to my spirit and confirming what the Holy Spirit has been revealing to me! Thank you, Jesus. Following God's path has been the most elating and liberating journey of my life... to know why you are here on this earth!!??? BLESSINGS YA'LL!!
Anthony O’Neal you are truly a God sent! He push in places to bring people on your platform to help us on what we need to do and moving forward in our faith with God! God bless you❤
I'm on the edge my seat. I've seen her on another show and have been unable to erase her from my mind. I would love to meet this young lady. She is an inspiration to me. You are truly a blessing to me.
This was just unbelievable. Super inspiring!!!! I am 30 going through a major life decision with three children and this was EXACTLY what i needed to hear! May God bless her!
You got this!
Run with it. I had 4 kids when I started College!
@@anthonyoneal Thank you Sir!
@@mzuribeauty4287 Wow! I already know you are successful !
@@imclaudiaashley I have a decent job but more important am super proud of the example I showed my kids!
I ordered the book on Amazon before I finished watching the video.
Thank you so much for creating this platform, that allows your audience to be exposed to some amazing people 🙏🏿❤️💫
Like Bev Smith and Sherri Shepherd said, “It gets greater later.” I’m happy for this lady because she didn’t let age nor circumstance stop her. She understood her Why and allowed God to prune her so she can be an example for others. I used to be where she was. I’ve survived A LOT and things are finally coming together at 45 years old after going haywire for Decades. All I can hope is that other women will see my story and go before God asking (or begging) for preparation/know-how to avoid the gutters I’ve lived in throughout my 20s and 30s. NO ONE should have to live this life from one gut punch to the next. Trust me. Thanks for giving us a voice, Anthony!
You are never your circumstances and it's so sad that people believe that they are
Amazing !! I loved every single minute of this episode. Thank you for having Ms. Mignon on to share her story. I am leaving this episode encouraged, motivated and inspired to continue seeking God on what He desires for my life.
Yes so of the best cupcakes in our city. I have heard her speak several times around time and I can never get tired of hearing her.She is a very inspirational person.
What beautiful people you are. What an amazing interview with this precious woman Mignon. What amazing breakthroughs God gave her & her children and what success.?😊❤ So happy for her and her family.
What an amazing and inspiring woman of God! She spoke to my soul! As an alumni of Xavier University and a former Louisiana girl, I am so proud of Mignon Francois! God used her today to speak to me! Thank you Jesus for hearing and answering my prayer! Thank you Anthony for being light in the world that really needs LIGHT! 🙌🏽🙏🏽💕
Wow! What a blessing this video has been. I am trying to play catch up this week on watching the shows, and this was the 1st video I chose. Her testimony is very moving and heartfelt. When God speaks it is time to listen. Thank you so much.
Wow!! I'm speechless this was one of the BEST shows so glad you had her on...she really motivated me while watching this especially at a time that l wanted to give up on a business l was starting...God's timimg is amazing.
“Your not afraid to fail, your afraid to succeed “
I needed that so much.
I never ever get tired of watching Mignon in interviews ❤️
It went over his head when she said, "I said Five-million cupcakes, not five-million dollars." Cupcakes are $3to $6.00 a pop. LOL
This is what I needed thank you so much. Long story short, I was in a pergent competition and we had to raise money and help the community, and I was in high school (11th grade) and I decided that I'm going to sell muffins even though it was illegal to sell anything on school ground, I got in some trouble but i did it. little did i know that this is what going to save me 7 years later.I'm struggling to get a job and I'm now selling muffins full time and it is my way of making a living and it is still so hard to grow it into a business but i knew God was showing me that if it gets hard this is what you can ran to.
I love what she said about if God orders the meal, He’ll pay the bill. When I was applying to law school, I said if it’s God’s will, it’s God’s bill. God provided me with a full tuition scholarship. Love this!
Thank you for this episode…I’m looking forward to reading the book ❤
❤ Yes, God always provide “
Amen ✔️ ❤
Incredible!!! Faith
I love that line
Omg… this hit home! I’m 33 now and I feel like It’s time to make a change! I love this…
Ms.Mignon I believe God allowed me to come across your testimony, because I know he has a plan for my life and it's just the beginning. I ordered your book today.
THANK YOU SO MUCH ❤❤️🙇♀️🙏🏽
Oh my goodness!! Currently it is 5:47 AM in the morning and I listen to this entire podcast! I am a retired blind veteran and I officially started a baking business last year because of what my younger brother said to me! her story hit home for me on so many levels!! I am going to search for this book and listen to it!! Anthony O’Neill dear brother thank you! Thank you!! Thank you!!! Loving on you from Philly!!!! ☀️🌷🫶🏼🥰
I think you've given her the best interview I've heard... BOTH TIMES - the one hear and the one at her place.
You do a phenomenal job with interviews.
She definitely inspired me on your podcast more than others.
This was exactly what I needed to hear, I am crying because this is maybe the 3rd time in my life where someone’s story is God speaking through them to me saying “I see you, it’s not over you “. I am weeping , so much emotion because I know things are about to change in my journey as God educated baker, cook, entrepreneur who has been through failure & ended up taking a low paying job during Covid . Thank you Anthony, thank you sooooo much for answering the call to be of service to us all . There is redemption for those whose ancestors had soo much stolen from them. The vengeance belongs to God, He is making it right for us.
Me too! ❤️❤️🙏🙏
I started my business small as well and it has grown
Can't tell u how much I experienced so much of the same n thus us so reassuring. I am both fear of success and failure lolll but the if God orders he will pay the bill. She said it best!!
I feel and internalize this on a different level. This is God’s reassurance and confirmation.
This episode was created just for me. The timing could not have been more perfect. God is truly amazing!
Btw, this needs to be in the TOP 3 episodes of the year.
She’s SPOT on about failure to be successful. Because with that comes, EXPECTATIONS. From family, friends. Sure they’ve heard you talk about it. Time & time again. She’s preaching today.
I cannot believe share the same name just spelled differently. She’s truly speaking to my spirit. Thank you.
She's a breath of fresh air. The Spirit of GOD spoke through your son to encourage you so you would not give up. I love how she give GOD the Glory and telling us the truth. Hallelujah.
I love that she let God order her steps and she believed enough to follow where he led her and still is.. She is telling me, don't be afraid to suceed.
As a dessert business owner this was very very inspirational! It gave me the motivation to keep pushing ❤
Every time I hear Mignon speak I love her even more! Thank God for you 😊
There was reason this video showed up in my algorithm, I related so much to her story being 33 now same age as she was when she started her business. I am afraid of success but I have a true calling on my life in the make up artistry. but don’t know how to begin. I am a single mother of 3 children and I know I want more not just for them, but my self and this just confirms that I can’t give up and to continue to be obedient because I have to give god back what he has invested in me!
Wow amazing to hear her story!! I order her cupcakes a few months ago and they were absolutely delicious!!! The sweet potato, Girl Scout, chocolate mint, chocolate, & strawberry were my favorites 🤤🤤🤤
I am so proud of you.
I know that it’s IMPERATIVE that I meet you Ms. Francois. This message was for me bc I was researching something and this video popped up. You had me in tears the first few minutes of the show. Thank you! I will be reaching out to you today. ❤
Mignon blesses me every time I watch her in a interview. She lavish wisdom on the community intentionally, without reservation!. Thanks Ms. Mignon!
I’m a proud witness to those two years of hard work. I Still haven’t had a better Red Velvet cupcake than yours! I was glad to be one of your taste testers! 🤗❤
She said something wonderful: wow, being a lighthouse in the cupcake business. That is mentally strong!!!
?
This interview slaps me in the face . I have been waking up at 3:27 every morning. God has given me SO MANY business ideas since before I even went to college. I started in my career field and I hate it. I have been so hesitant to start building on those ideas. Why am I afraid to live ?
Thank You🙏🏽 So Loved this content, what an Amazing Woman of God. Thank you both for your yes and your not quitting. Wow, God is REAL, He cares and He is involved! Thank you!
I’m so glad she said God preparing her for a life 17years later. Now has me thinking I am on the right track with thinking of everything I have accomplish and learned thus far.
This is probably the best motivating story I have heard . Drew me in and made me stop in my tracks.
Been weaking up at 3am for years thanking God every time my life is at peace.
I’m back to watch this interview for a second time… her testimony is soo inspiring ❤💙💙
With myself not by myself! God is so good! 🎉
There were many times during this podcast where I felt like church needed to breakout! The way she talks about GOD! Mannnnn...God is able! Won't he do it!! Her spirit shines through! TY for this podcast Anthony!
When GOD delivers, he delivers! Awesome story. Praise God!
Thank you for bringing her on AO! I needed to hear this. Stay blessed 🙌
Glad it was helpful!
Wow!!! This was so inspiring and such a blessing. I love her spirit. It’s never too late to begin again. God knows I can relate to that Word.
This has been my favorite interview by far. I love her personality. She is a true gem. I pray the LORD continues to prosper her. Continue to grow in the LORD, sis
I watched and listened to this show & podcast TWICE! (Yea that’s 4x!) This one hit me right between the eyes - been waking up without my phone alarm this last month at 4:55a on the dot, so I signed up for FPU this past weekend because of Mignon and her story. God got me and mines!!! In Jesus name I’m going to be debt free and have a successful brand!
Incredible interview. Such a blessing to be able to share these stories on your platform AO. Thank you! 🙏🏾
Thanks for Watching!
So insiring! So anointed! Such a blessing! Thank you Mignon. ❤ Thank you Anthony for having her on your show. Be ever blessed y'all!!!
Totally understand, the “fear of success”. That’s a lot of showing up, expectation, and change from a “normal” lifestyle. It’s much easier to stay in your comfort zone. However, when God says He’s got you, He’s got you! ❤😇
Wow. This is so preaching to me right now. Thank You Anthony O’Neal. To whom much is given, much is expected.
Thank you for the Inspiration, Beautiful Lady! I am so Inspired right now. Thank you for giving us Hope. Thank you, Anthony O’Neal for sharing this Powerful Story!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
SHE FOUND THE CREATORS VOICE IN HER....CONGRATS🎉

I literally cried the whole time watching this. It was cleansing and motivating. Ot was my church for today. Thank you
My Lord. I needed this today! Sitting here in tears because i have been so afraid to move towards success. I'm always scared i will fail or will not measure up. God has given me so much to do. It's time to move. Thank you for this!
She is a true Goat here in Nashville Tennessee. She’s such an inspiration!!!!❤ I thank god for you everyday AO. In mind you are my uncle 😂
This is one of the BEST videos I’ve come across on this channel!!!
I'm so grateful to have heard this interview today. This morning I woke up at 3:17 a.m. for no apparent reason. But 317 resonates with love. The time was confirmation. It's never too late. But my obedience is the key. I bought 2 copies of the book.
Love it!
Little becomes much when we place it in the Master's Hands. Congratulations! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
WOWWWW, 317 every morning; that’s the #11 a spiritual awakening! 🙌🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽🙏🏽
I love this interview . Definitely ordering the book! Thank you both ❤
Man, I needed to hear this. God is so good. 🙌
All I can say is, I really love this lady, I would gravitate towards her also!!!
New subscriber.. This segment was a total tear jerker for me. I'm so elated that I came across your channel! Love from NJ. 💜
"God expects a return on His investment in us." That hits hard!
Come on now!
😅
I cried. This line was for me.
Powerful!!
Read the Bible.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this episode so much. Especially since just yesterday, I found out that a young lady that I know is just starting in the cupcake business. Coincidence? I think not! I am going to send this video to her and also recommend the book. I'll probably be purchasing the book as well. Keep knocking 'em outta the park, Anthony
This is no coincidence that this video popped up for me today this evening wow glory to god thank you with tears and joy in my heart god bless you soo much! 🙏🏾🙏🏾💞💞💐😭
Cupcake Collection is wonderful!! I am so happy for their success ❤️ I love the cupcakes, one of my favorite places to go for a sweet treat ❤️
I finally figured it out I'm scared of success. Time to change.
Love Mignon❤ May GOD continue to bless her❣
I have been saying this about myself for years.. I dont have a fear of failing.. i have a fear of success.. cause when you are successful more is expected of you and from you. Im slowly getting over that.. slowly..
Book ordered! Thank you so much for this conversation.
This episode was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥! Mignon brought the heat for sure! Take aways: 1) Get connected to God through is word; 2) Listen to & trust his voice; 3) You may not be where you want to be in life, but your experiences are valuable for your journey

"With myself and not by myself". That's a revelation!!!!
