I had the honor of attending the first Africa Fashion Week in New York last weekend. It was incredible!!! The designers that were showcased were from all over the African diaspora and the designs were simply beautiful. The greatest high was that our mineral makeup and hair care were the sponsors of the event and it was a thrill to see the models walking down the runway with our makeup on their faces and their bodies glowing with our butters. It was a wonderful experience. Check out a few of our pictures on this link:

Dear Beloveds,
Mother’s Day is a very special day with a universal understanding all over the world. The role of mother and matriach is an honored one the world over and those of us who are blessed to have been a mother either biologically or emotionally can testify to its significance.
I wanted to take this opportunity to wish everyone in our community a very Happy Mother’s Day. My hope for you is that today will be a day of joy for you as we all celebrate our mothers and the women and men in our lives who have played a motherly role in our development. This is also a day to celebrate the maternal roles that we have blessed to play in other people’s lives, it is truly a blessing.
Today, I am in Grenada with my mother caring for her after her brain surgery a week ago. She is recuperating well and we will be meeting with her surgeon for the first time after her surgery tomorrow morning to learn her prognosis. I am grateful for her recovery thus far and extremely grateful for your prayers, thoughts and well wishes. God has blessed her and the hands of her surgeons and caretakers.
Due to God’s blessings I have been able to share another Mother’s Day with my mom although I am away from my own beloved children today.
Happy Mother’s Day to all of you, enjoy the day!
Much love,
Nadine

Hi Friends,
My mother had a bad fall and hit her head a few days ago. She is experiencing some internal bleeding in her head as well as clotting. They are going to be doing emergency brain surgery in the morning. I am going to catch an early flight to Grenada in the morning to be at her side. I am terrified and scared beyond belief, I cannot imagine this world without my mother in it. She has been my rock, my anchor and source of strength. Please keep my family in your prayers we really need it.Much love,Nadine

The Hopi Elders Speak




We Are the Ones

We've Been Waiting For



You have been telling the people that this is the Eleventh Hour.



Now you must go back and tell the people that this is The Hour.



And there are things to be considered:





Where are you living?



What are you doing?



What are your relationships?



Are you in right relation?



Where is your water?



Know your garden.



It is time to speak your Truth.



Create your community. Be good to each other. And do not look outside yourself for the leader.

This could be a good time!



There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel they are being torn apart, and they will suffer greatly.



Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above the water. See who is in there with you and celebrate.



At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally. Least of all, ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt.



The time of the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves!



Banish the word struggle from your attitude and your vocabulary.



All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.



We are the ones we've been waiting for.
