We had the good fortune of connecting with Amber Lucas and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Amber, alright, let’s jump in with a deep one – what’s you’re definition for success?
Success is an inner satisfaction and peace of mind knowing you have done your best with what you have been given to make progress toward your goals, maximize your potential, and improve yourself daily. You are successful when you are moving in the direction that YOU have chosen. Personal fulfillment, continuous growth, authenticity, impact and contribution, balance, well-being, resilience, and adaptability are all words that come to mind when I think of success.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
At A & R Treasures Health Services, we are dedicated to serving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities by providing comprehensive case management and health services. Soon, we will expand our offerings to include residential treatment services, ensuring our clients receive the advocacy and support they deserve. Our unwavering commitment to personalized care and our holistic approach to supporting each individual’s unique needs set us apart. I am incredibly proud of our dedicated team and the positive impact we have on our community. The journey to where we are today has been filled with challenges, but our resilience and dedication to our mission have helped us overcome every obstacle. We have learned the importance of compassion, adaptability, and perseverance. I want the world to know that A & R Treasures Health Services is more than a business; it is a beacon of hope and a testament to the power of advocacy and care in transforming lives.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
If my best friend were visiting for a week, we’d kick off with live music and great food at a local lounge, two of my favorite things! We’d spend our days exploring Houston’s best brunch spots, followed by relaxation at a top-notch spa. Evenings would be for girl time, catching up over cocktails at a chic rooftop bar and enjoying a movie at the rooftop theater. We’d visit the Museum District, explore local landmarks, and enjoy nature with a scenic bike ride, boat ride, or a relaxing day at Hermann Park. Sundays would be reserved for a heartfelt church service and a delicious Sunday dinner with family and friends. Throughout the week, we’d connect with some of the city’s most interesting people and places, ensuring an unforgettable visit!

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
In every step of my journey, my mother’s memory has been a guiding light, her strength and wisdom shaping the person I am today. Her enduring love and unwavering belief in me have been the foundation of my successes. Equally inspiring is my newborn son, who faced challenges from the moment he entered this world. His resilience and strength have been a tremendous motivation for me to keep going. To my mother and my son, I dedicate my shoutout – they are the pillars of my story.
