          As we enter the month of April, which is the month of Poetry Appreciation, we are leaving the month of March, which was the month of Women Appreciation.  I thought it would be important to share many ways how you and others can encourage women and girls to better themselves. But, let me first give you a short recap of the Beauty Showcase Event and all who participated.

         
Last month, I was apart of a fantastic event called, "Beauty Showcase," this was an event that gave an opportunity to myself and other women to showcase products they are selling. This all took place in the Women Center located on the campus of University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC). You may now know us as #UMustBeCinderella thanks to March Madness. It was a great opportunity to be a part of and learn what other women on campus are during besides focusing on their majors and social lives. The other woman who participated in the event was Anna (in the photo below), who hand paints different sizes of masking jars. At the first moment of meeting her,  you learn that she is a beautiful and friendly spirit. She first started painting masking jars as gifts for her friends. Her friends really loved and enjoyed her gifts that it inspired her to design more to sell for a great price. If you are interested in looking and purchasing beautiful jars by Anna, you can check them out by clicking the link to her Instagram page https://www.instagram.com/jarsbyanna/





For my presentation, my and Alicia (in the photo below), who is the owner of Botanically You Scalp Organic Serum, told the group about the behind the scenes story of the creation, which you can check out by clicking the link to see the videos of Alicia telling her story https://www.instagram.com/p/Bgel5e-gXP7/?taken-by=shopbotanicallyyou. We also mentioned the benefits of using the product when used daily and we showed before and after pictures of ourselves and other people who used the product and received remarkable results. The group became very interested in the product, and they were impressed at the results they seen in the pictures. If you are interested in checking out the Botanically You product, click the link to the official website https://botanicallyyou.com/?rfsn=717783.de8057. Also, we also have an Instagram page, which you can get updates about the product. Click the link https://www.instagram.com/shopbotanicallyyou/ and stay up to date with us.




Now that you have gotten a recap of the Beauty Showcase event, I will list the many ways that you and others can support and empower women and girls in whatever they are apart of.

  •  Go to their event. It seems so simple, but this will show them that you care enough to support them in what they are doing with their lives.

  •  If they sell a product, a craft, or sell a service and you love. Just buy it. If you would have quickly brought the same product or service from a complete stranger, then buy it and don't ask for a discount. They have bills to pay too. 

  • Spread the word. If you find that you know others who are interested in those type of products, crafts, and service, then tell others about it.
  • Encourage. If you know people who dream to become something or like someone they aspire to be like, encourage them that they should make those dreams come true because anything is possible. You just have to put your best at it.


I hope this post inspired you to support and empower your friends to become who they dream to become and working on becoming as well. Not only do I hope, I inspired to support your friends, family, and even people you just meet on the street, but I also hope that I inspired you to do the same. 

Thank you, and see you next month!
