We had the good fortune of connecting with Candace Watkins and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Candace, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
Taking risk believe it or not is the best part about being an entrepreneur.  Taking risk has helped me go beyond my potential, turn my PURPOSE into my PASSION . Life is all about taking risk, if you never take risk you will NEVER achieve your dream nor fulfill your purpose. “Great things never came from comfort zones”


Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Leap Of Faith Bounce House is a family based business. When my husband and I opened our doors back in 2020 we had no idea how much meaning the name of our business would have, we definitely took “A Leap of Faith. The community our customers is what keep us going from day to day. I love giving back to the community, It warms my heart when we are setting up a party and you know that you are responsible for making the kids happy ( its the best feeling in the world). No it wasn’t easy but it was worth it., a lot was sacrificed. I learned patience and that GODS timing is not our timing.


If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?

If I had a friend visiting… we would literally buy BLACK!!!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I wanna give a Huge shoutout to the UNITED STATES NAVY! I served in the united states navy for 6 years it was the best experience of my life. I met some cool people, got to travel the world. While serving I didn’t understand how the navy would impact my life until I got out. Best decision I ever could have made.

My Husband has been my biggest supporter. Even when I wanted to give up or I didn’t quite see my vision as clear as I wanted to, My husband spoke life into all of my hopes and dreams. I’m forever grateful.
