So pleased to announce that I am wrapping the finishing touches on my event. Purchase your early bird tickets now to say $10 off of a full price ticket with even more goodies (:
The event will be at The Bread Winners Cafe in uptown. The address is 3301 McKinney Ave, Dallas 75024. I love you all and can't wait to meet you once again! Much love, Adaeze Arizona Naturals: This is Your Time!For quite a while now I've always wanted to go to a natural hair event. I wanted to meet women like me who loved themselves for what they were and were making the most out of what they have. I never dreamed I'd get to go to one, let alone host one.
My best friend from overseas FroGirlGinny just recently brought her natural hair event to the States. I love having a best friend who inspires you because you end up growing so much from the relationship. She inspired me indirectly to have my own event which will take place January 17th, 12pm-5pm at the Civic Center Mall in Scottsdale, AZ. We already have one sponsor, Root2Tip, and are looking for as many as possible who would be willing to give us gift bags or samples to give to the attendees. We also will be having a workshop/talk by Tawn from FromTawnWithLove. To view the intricate details of this event and to sign up, click here. I hope to see you all there!! I am so excited to share with you such an exciting feature in my career... Click the image below to visit the webpage on Essence Magazine! When I created this event, I never dreamed even ten people would show up. Nevertheless, I went through with it anyways because I wanted to prove something to myself. I wanted to have a space where I can express myself and others can as well, and that is exactly what my event became.
Meeting all of those women, engaging in conversations with them, sharing the struggles, and giving them love has become my own inspiration for the continuation of my event. I am so excited to announce the #TheCorkscrewCurl will be coming to my hometown in Dallas on July 25th! I can assure you that this time, my event will be more amazing than before and I can't wait to meet so many more lovely naturalistas! Come back here or follow my Instagram to purchase tickets! I can't wait to see you all! Much love, Adaeze In between my constant work on The Corkscrew Curl Dallas event, my ever growing amount of homesickness, loneliness from self-inflicted isolation from others, and just plain boredom has allowed me to become more introverted. I honestly welcome this because it allows me to see beauty in all things. In the last few months, I have learned that
My list could go on & on, but of course, I must get back to other things. Much love, Adaeze Passion, being relentless, and knowing your shit really does pay off (lol). I am so happy to announce I am Jade Kendle's content writer for her website. After meeting her in person after her Curls Over Brunch Dallas event, I was able to connect and get to experience this amazing opportunity.
Most of my posts will be on her hair blog, but as we get going, there will be more to view. Catch up with me weekly on her website! I'll make sure this summer I don't neglect this blog and my YouTube as much (: As I travel through college, I've experienced so many new things. Some wonderful, some that have taught me a lesson. In these quick paced 3 months I've lived in Arizona, I can tell I've grown substantially. I have decided I am tired of looking at a girl on Instagram and wishing I was just a bit more like her. I have decided I am tired of looking for other ways to make myself happy. I have decided I want to be the thing that makes me the most happy. If my parents put all of their happiness and faith into me, then by god I should be doing the same. I feel that all our lives we are waiting to please someone else. Some one else who only is giving less than half interest into who we are. They aren't looking to grow with us. They aren't looking for our best interests. They are only seeking what is good enough for them because they too are struggling with themselves. As a society, our lives revolve around a quick maneuver to gain what we want, however what we want isn't substantial to what we need. We focus on things to make us appear to be happy when we really aren't. When I tell people I find it hard to believe that someone can truly be happy, they look down on me. I don't feel that they quite understand what I mean. The reason why I believe people aren't truly happy is because it always appears that deep down inside they are still struggling with inner demons. Maybe that's just a pessimistic way of looking at people, I'm not too sure, but I know that for the rest of my time this semester, I'm going to delve into how I can truly be happy. I already know how I will do it. I will start by truly loving and accepting my heritage, which is slowly, but surely happening as I write this. I plan to visit Nigeria in the near future and grow in love with it. It has been something I have been trying to conceal for a majority of my life. My life, my happiness, my goals have nothing to do with anyone else. In that respect I choose to be selfish and give it my all. I refuse to continue to live with self doubt and hate. You cannot continue to carry on like that! Thank you to FroGirlGinny for her beautiful message on her newest blog post. I woke up this morning inspired and was even more inspired after reading her post. It inspired me to write my own. Here's the song I was listening to as I wrote this. I encourage you to listen to it!
