From teen mom to CEO, Giovanni Thompson, celebrates the release of her new book “She is King”

I’ve known Gio for many years working in the industry and didn’t even know she had children until recently. You’ve heard the saying, “Move in Silence.” The adage was indeed my impression of Giovonni Thompson. She made big moves with a quiet, laid-back stance; however, she always makes history-making moves.
To celebrate her birthday, Gio hosted a Book Signing and Birthday Celebration on the Camden Waterfront. Along the gorgeous waterfront were beautifully decorated backdrops designed by Ivory Norprenuer @ivorynorpreneur & @partyrentals1. It was a beautiful feeling to be out amongst people again, with the fantastic water, lights, and of course good food by Chef Will of Braii Experience @thebraiiexperience
I’m not sure if you’ve been out lately or seen the 360 Photo Booth, but they added an exquisite touch to the celebration. The 360 photo booth is not your ordinary photo booth. It comes with a platform where people (usually by twos or threes) stand on it and pose or dance. As they pose, the attached camera spins around 360 degrees, capturing the people on the platform from every angle. Gio and guests had so much fun posing and dancing while the camera spun 360. The Bar Experience & 360 Photo Booth was brought to us by Jelly Kisses Mobile Bartending LLC @jellykisses19.
Gio signed books, spoke to guests while my sista/friend Dezzie of Reach Gospel Radio 97.1 FM hosted @yabiggirldezzie and Music: DJ Aktive @djaktive. I had the pleasure of interviewing DJ Aktive during my 30 Interviews in 30 Days, but this was the first time seeing him in person in years.
As the guests entered the Official Red Carpet, Media officially greeted them: We Talk Weekly @wetalkweekly
VIPs in attendance included Camden Mayor, Vic Carstarphen; Camden County Commissioner, Al Dyer; and City Council, Arthur Barlclay, Jermaine Jones, Simon “One Punch” Car, Celebrity hairstylist Naeemah Johnson and my bro bro @therealstatus
About Giovanni Thompson @gioglobal
Giovanni Thompson, a mother of 4 has done it all.

Presently, Gio reigns as the Chief Executive Officer for the Camden Monarchs, an ABA expansion team that is 3rd in its division. She is the youngest African American majority owner. In sectors typically dominated by men, she continues to rise to the top proving to her counterparts why “She is King.” “She is King,” the autobiography is published by Chocolate Reading and CMC agency under “The Influencer Best Seller Project.” As you navigate her self-built kingdom, you will get a glimpse of the hardships, losses, lessons, and most importantly, triumphs she endured on her rise to success.
