STOLEN IDENTITY. . . IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK This past weekend I had the pleasure of meeting Sasha Legette (founder) and Roshawn Evans (co-founder) of Pure Justice. I was drawn in by Roshawn's book, "Stolen Identity" and was impressed with Sasha and Roshawn's social calling. Today, I shared Roshawn's book with a colleague and she was completely into it after reading only a few pages. (Get your own copy girlfriend!) I, personally, can relate to "Stolen Identity" because of things I've seen growing up. It is easy to judge a person when you don't know their story. One thing I can say for many of us is, the struggle is real. The book is eye opening and sends a powerful message to society. Stolen Identity is available in various outlets including Amazon.

 | Aundra Fusilier created a health tonic, Gingartum, which has turned into a very rewarding side business. Gingartum derived its name from the scientific blend, and precise intermingling of ginger, garlic and tumeric. Aundra, along with his wife Kijana Wiseman-Fusilier, define the tonic as food because of its remarkable nutritional content. Aundra explains, “When our neighbors and family members started coming back for more... sharing amazing stories of results we were not even aware of... we knew good things were happening for them too...” |

With a plethora of natural remedies offered to combat many ailments, it is refreshing to see a product that is truly NATURAL. With its scientific blend of pronounceable, pure ingredients, Gingartum encompasses natural goodness. Each ingredient along with its nutritional benefits is listed on their site.
I've heard great things about Gingartum. Although the couple makes no medical claims, some clients boast of its ability to reduce cravings, detoxify their system and facilitate weight loss. Others attest that the tonic helped with eczema and helped them to sleep better. Since, its creation, the Fusiliers have developed a delicious, aromatic seasoning pack that is available for sale online at www.gingartum.com, along with following outlets in the Houston and Metropolitan area.

Take a moment to think of something. . .anything that you may be struggling with. It could possibly be something that you are actively aspiring to become or something that you feel may be impossible to achieve. Before you are too quick to doubt yourself or succumb to the feeling of inadequacy, try the power of positive thinking. The word “yet” is very powerful. Give it a try, and you will see how simply attaching "yet" to your thoughts changes the expected outcome. This is what we call the GROWTH MINDSET! With a growth mindset, you will believe that anything is possible with hard work and a positive belief system.
I don’t know this. I don’t know this YET.
I don’t get it. I don’t get it YET.
This doesn’t work. This doesn’t work YET.
I can’t do this. I can’t do this YET.
I don’t get it. I don’t get it YET.
This doesn’t work. This doesn’t work YET.
I can’t do this. I can’t do this YET.

Books, Blankets and Breakfast
HISD's Mading Elementary is the only dual language and STEM Academy in the state of Texas. At Mading, to celebrate the success of each scholar for reaching or exceeding grade-level reading expectation, students are being honored.
These scholars are being allowed to dress in pajamas for the day to distinguish their accomplishment. They will spread out, in the multipurpose room, with their favorite books and blankets to read.

I feel honored and am excited to have the opportunity to do a meet and greet with these amazing students. Each student will receive a certificate, and a swag bag of goodies. In addition, I will read my book, "Marisol: A Little Girl with a Big Dream," that encourages young children to pursue STEM careers. To wrap up the event, I will deliver a word of encouragement for these scholars to continue to reach their goals. Being raised in Southeast Houston, this is close to my heart.
