I am in a constant state of embracing my flaws...
My three things that I want you to know about self love and wellness is that it takes time…. It’s practice to process and process makes purpose. Secondly, wellness is subjective to the person practicing it. It’s not a one size fits all.
What inspired you to start your business? What motivates you to keep going?: I started my business because I wanted to help people learn how to invest in their self care. Self care is an affordable luxury that most people neglect or think they have to go to a high end spa to obtain. I create products that allow one to create that luxury self care experience at home within their own bath or shower regime. What keeps me going is that aha moment my clients share when they release they are the best at taking care of their own well being and self-care.
How do you create the life you want?: That is a very good question, I feel I’m still processing creating the life that I want .For the most part I make sure that my self care regimen is very luxe as though someone else is creating my products. I take the time to enjoy nature, relish in fine foods and restaurants. Enjoying a movie. It’s about me bringing the luxe experience home.
What makes you HUMAN?: What makes me human is the fact that I am in a constant state of embracing my flaws. My flaws keep me humble.
What's three things you want us to know about self-love/wellness?: My three things that I want you to know about self love and wellness is that it takes time…. It’s practice to process and process makes purpose. Secondly, wellness is subjective to the person practicing it. It’s not a one size fits all. It's like a journey that people have to go on their own and along the way they meet who they are supposed to meet in that journey.
What's something we can incorporate today to LIVE LIFE WELL?:: The one thing I recommend that people incorporate in their journey right now is to live in the now. To live in the present moment. Stop focusing so much on the future. Stop swimming in the past- just breathe in the now and let the road unfold as it should.

I create the life I want by first believing...
My app was created to help people find blackowned businesses that are natural and holistic based. I was motivated to start this because in my search to find beauty products, hair products, restaurants etc. that were as natural as possible, I discovered that there were many that were blackowned. Amazing smaller companies that were not getting the publicity they should be.

I was motivated to start this because in my search to find beauty products, hair products, restaurants etc. that were as natural as possible, I discovered that there were many that were blackowned. Amazing smaller companies that were not getting the publicity they should be. I wanted to change the mindset of "I'd support blackowned businesses if I knew where they were and how to find them". Well now I've made it just a tad bit easier to do so.
How do you create the life you want?: I create the life I want by first believing that I can have the life I want, I deserve the life I want and that I already have the life I want. Manifesting is the first step to making what is already there in the non-physical realm come to fruition.
What makes you HUMAN?: What makes me human is my beliefs, my morals, and how I love and respect other humans.
What's three things you want us to know about self-love/wellness?: 1. Wellness, not only physical, but also mental, is essential for survival. You have to take care of the vessel that God created. Garbage in, Garage out. What you are eating, what you put on your skin, whether you exercise or not, your thoughts, and what you are watching and reading all contributes to this.
2. You have to take care of yourself before you will ever be able to care and/or provide for anyone else. You can't pour from any empty cup. Just like they say on plane rides, put the oxygen mask on yourself first before the child. (Have to be alive to be able to give oxygen to that child)
3. Giving back is food for the soul.
What's something we can incorporate today to LIVE LIFE WELL?:: Feed you mind, body and soul only the best of the best.

Self-love is an ugly and beautiful process
My son inspired me. He has eczema and I started making whipped Shea butter for him, which really helped his skin. What keeps me going is my willingness to be better. I want to learn as much as possible so I can share with others to help with their skin ailments.

How do you create the life you want?: By taking it one day at a time. I am a planner, I write out everything and this helps me to stay focused. Also my husband plays a huge part in me staying focused.
What makes you HUMAN?: Meaning mistakes makes me human. I find the perfect time to create or to share and there may NEVER be a perfect time, so I have to allow myself to just do and correct along the way.
What's three things you want us to know about self-love/wellness?: Self-love is an ugly and beautiful process. It’s euphoric. Learning to understand the messy, ugly, awkward, dark parts of yourself and loving them despite how others may see you is beautiful. But knowing you have the ability to be who you desire is priceless.
What's something we can incorporate today to LIVE LIFE WELL?:: Meditate. Take 5 mins do breathing exercises, sit by the ocean, watch the sunset or journal. Be mindful of how you feel and embrace it. Just be present.

I’m continuously motivated by my journey to #KeepGoing
I was inspired to start Black Wholeness Collective due to my life falling apart. After reaching the top of my own success I realized I’d gotten there standing on fear, trauma, and my fragile mental health
What inspired you to start your business? What motivates you to keep going?: I was inspired to start Black Wholeness Collective due to my life falling apart. After reaching the top of my own success I realized I’d gotten there standing on fear, trauma, and my fragile mental health.
I’m continuously motivated by my journey to #KeepGoing, no matter how dark or dismal things appear. I’ve seen my share of bad days and know that I remain the strongest person I know.
Black Wholeness Collective reflects the same tenacious attitude and spirit for other African Descendants to seek healing for themselves; Mind, Body and Spirit.
How do you create the life you want?: My envision of what I want my life to be changes with the wind; I’m learning how to take my life one day and step at a time. I get to choose daily who and what I want to be; by doing things that make me happy without having to think too hard or too far into the future.
Short answer: sis, idk often and I’m becoming more ok with that answer, daily.
What makes you HUMAN?: Allowing myself the grace and mercy to make mistakes, heal, and be a full range of emotions while doing it.
I am human. I don’t have to prove that by any other means.
What's three things you want us to know about self-love/wellness?: 1. My self-love is mine; the world didn’t give it to me and it can’t take it away.
2. No one has any of your answers; only their own lessons.
3. Life is not a group project; you’ll have to live it and do your own work.
Extra: self-care goes beyond external things; it’s more about what you can replenish and internally do you fill in your own gaps.. think of it as your own way of internally hugging you.
What's something we can incorporate today to LIVE LIFE WELL?:: Place a focus on healing; If you’ve suffered from childhood, adolescent and or adult trauma know those foundations won’t rebuild themselves...beloved..

What inspired you to start your business? What motivates you to keep going?: My children, and the demand from social media.
