This collaboration will hopefully bring an array of humanitarian efforts as well as commendable business opportunities into the country. In 2019, Angelica was a contributor and wrote her personal take on achieving success for the inspirational book, “100 Habits From the Happiest Achievers on the Planet” which is currently available on Amazon.
