If I hadn't had a child, I wouldn't be in this exact position as I am today.” - Heidi Cortez “I felt I had to work harder for people to take me seriously. Once everything started coming…people were like, ‘Wait a minute. Maybe there's something more to this girl. She keeps proving herself.' I'm past that point now and probably just another hardship that God wanted me to go through.” - Heidi Cortez Get in touch: Website: heidicortez.com Facebook: facebook.com/HeidiCortezLikes Instagram & Twitter: @heidicortez TikTok: @heidicortez_ Connect with Ben: benreinberg.com Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok: @therealbenreinberg LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/benreinberg Facebook:.facebook.com/TheRealBenReinberg
