Melanated Entrepreneurship
Greetings. I'm so glad that you made it here to my blog post. We are embarking upon a new era of self sufficiency. When I say 'WE' I'm speaking of melanated beings who exist in this present time. For so long we have been dependent upon systems that have brought more harm to us than good. This isn't anything new. These systems have existed for ages. This is the age of healing and as we heal, many of us realize that we can no longer continue to live 'that same old way'. That same old way has created massive debt, spoilage and a superficial lifestyle that continues to take us backwards and not forward. Those of us on our healing journey are breaking that old mold and we are learning how to create for self.
On my journey over the past 7 years I have met so many wonderful artisans, stylists, chefs and creative designers of all kinds. I love to support my brothers and sisters who are also on their journey towards self sufficiency and healing through creativity. Below you will find a list of creators that I have hand picked to share with the world. They all can be located on INSTAGRAM. Feel free to reach out to them. I'm sure they would love to hear from you.
Lastly, everyone has a special gift hidden inside of themselves. I urge you to dig into those areas that you may have not tapped into in a very long time, perhaps since childhood. This is the best time in the world to create a business. I saw a quote online recently that said "Just Launch the damn business. You can make it perfect later!" I agree! Do it now, start it now, think about it now. Write down the plan and slowly bring it into fruition. You can do it. I believe in you but remember to always believe in yourself.
Love,
Eshé
