    About this ebook

    “Simply, Wisdom” is developed from my love for a Proverbs 31 woman, my mother, Ms. Velma or Biggs, as she was so affectionately called the epitome of a queen angel. After our father, Rev. Dr. Sidney L. Hampton Sr., died, Mama devoted herself to her children—three girls and three boys.

    She encouraged each one of us on our journey in life and expected nothing less than greatness. Without her teaching and training, I would not be the person I am today. Mama believed in the principles “You are what you think,” “Always aim for the best that life has to offer,” “If you think you can, you can do anything,” and “If you think you can’t, you are beat before you start.” “Simply, Wisdom” is a refresher course that can benefit everyone, especially women in personal and professional relationships. Only a loving and Godfearing mother could share such a phenomenal legacy with her daughters that will continue for generations to come. I am truly grateful, thankful, and blessed for my Proverbs 31 Mother.
