Blog Challenge Day 7 - Spotlight Interview with an African Fashion Designer

Earlier this year I got this great idea. As a creative artist I knew how tough the road sometimes can be for creative people. I wanted to spotlight all creative, innovative, inspiring people and give them a platform to share their story online. Usually you only get to see interviews of those who already made it to the top! I wanted to interview the journey of those who are on their way to the top! I believe people get more inspired by the stories they can truly relate to. I know I get inspired by hearing stories from people that really had to fight to get on the top! People like Nick Vujicic   His story will definitely change your perspective on problems in life and inspire you to live and work with what you have to the fullness. This is what my friend Mariana Zinga does. She is a hard worker going to school and has 2 jobs. An investment cause she has a dream. She is an African Fashion designer and just won a Fashion Award in Amsterdam. Listen to her whole story on: The Journey Of A Creative Artist

Let me know if you liked the interview. And if you loved it and would like to be interviewed to just let me know? I would love to hear the stories about your journey.

Be Blessed and Be a Blessing,

My Birthday

Last week, the 2nd of December was my birthday. I have been blessed with 35 beautiful and healthy years.

I celebrated my birthday by doing what I love the most. I celebrated my birthday with my mom at the spa. I enjoyed the Hamam, the massage, the food, drinks, the swimming and sauna. I always love to travel, and do something adventurous and spoil myself with my Birthday. I believe its good and important to celebrate that special day in your life. It’s good and gives you so much joy when you take the time to reflect over all the other years. When you learn to count your blessings and have a thankful heart, it does something to your inner being. It transforms you. You feel richer and you will be blessed with more. It was a wonderful and relaxed day.

I also got some beautiful presents from one of my closest friends, Elisa. She is an expert when it comes to house, design, fashion and style. She made these for me. A beautiful white vase with an African flavor and the beautiful inspiring words: I am a woman - Phenomally. And a beautiful bag with my own label: Visions, Thoughts and Dreams. That is what I do and stand for. Going around and inspiring others to follow their heart, their dreams and visions.

I also received this beautiful, unique special designed outfit from her sister, Mariana. She made this beautiful African and modern outfit for me. If you are interested in your own personal, classy, designed outfit check her out on FB. www.facebook.com/marianasaccessoriess

I love to see people standing up and following their hearts. Soon more to come from these beautiful and talented ladies.

Be Blessed and Be a Blessing
