Darlene Brooks
Graphic Designer, DMB Graphics
Hello, I'm Darlene Brooks. I have been designing and developing content for much of my adult life. In 2012 when I started my part-time business, my graphic design career accelerated developing flyers, logos and websites for travel professionals. In 2020, during the COVID-19 Pandemic, I diversified my business and called it "Yes to Better Life" (YTBL). Now, in 2026, I've decided to focus solely on my passion - Graphics Design and change my business name to "DMB Graphics".
As a 2021 retiree, I decided to pursue my passion for art, creativity, design, and development, full time. Making content look great is what I like to do! What started out as a hobby has become a successful business.
Mary Cofield
Health and Wellness Advocate
Lifewave Brand Partner
I am a retired professional and baby boomer entrepreneur. I began my entrepreneurial journey as a travel advisor and pivoted during the COVID era to focus on wellness. I now specialize in indoor air quality and phototherapy for natural pain relief and healthy aging. My COVID-era shift reinforced a commitment to cleaner indoor environments, helping clients apply practical steps - improved ventilation, high‑efficiency filtration, and allergen‑aware housekeeping - for gatherings and everyday life. Alongside my clients, I champion healthy aging with a holistic approach that includes acupressure, light‑based phototherapy, and research‑informed stem cell support for pain relief and rejuvenation. Clients call me “Miss Researcher” because I dig deep into every technology and product I recommend - so you get solutions that are evidence‑guided, practical, and safe.
Contact me for free consultation.
