For over 24 years, I wore the uniform with pride. The military taught me discipline, resilience, leadership, and how to accomplish the mission—no matter the obstacles. Today, I carry those same principles into everything I do. As a Family Nurse Practitioner, entrepreneur, mentor, and veteran, my mission is bigger than building businesses. It's about creating opportunities, helping others build wealth, and leaving a legacy that extends far beyond me. Whether I'm helping veterans navigate VA claims, mentoring aspiring entrepreneurs, investing in real estate, or teaching financial literacy, my purpose remains the same: Educate. Elevate. Empower. Success isn't about where you started—it's about what you choose to build with the experiences you've been given. 💬 I'd love to hear from you: What's one lesson from your military service, career, or life that still guides you today? Let's learn from each other below. 👇 🌐 Resources, mentorship, and business tools: https://tanekawalker.com #VeteranEntrepreneur #MilitaryTransition #Leadership #WomenWhoLead #NursePractitioner #RealEstateInvestor #BusinessMentor #LegacyBuilding #FinancialFreedom #GenerationalWealth #VeteranOwned #Entrepreneurship #SkoolCommunity #TanekaWalker

Hello everyone! My name is Jacques, and I’m located in Kennedale, Texas. I am the Founder and Executive Director of Operation Next Step, a veteran-focused nonprofit organization dedicated to connecting veterans, transitioning service members, and their families with resources and support. I joined to continue growing as an entrepreneur and leader while improving my financial knowledge. I want to learn more about building wealth, investing, managing money, and creating long-term financial stability. My financial goal is to build a strong savings foundation, begin investing consistently, and become more financially stable. My biggest business goal is to secure contracts and begin developing a veteran housing program through Operation Next Step to help veterans in need i plan to contribute by sharing the resources, connections, and knowledge I gain through my work with veterans and the nonprofit community. I also want to support other members by networking, making useful connections, sharing opportunities, and helping wherever my experience or resources can be valuable.
