LA based celebrity stylist, Jamar Hart ( who has styled Beyonce Knowles, Tina Knowles, and Vanessa Simmons), gives us a peek into his world. His aura is full of life and energy which he brings to every project. In this interview we discuss Jamar's styling process, how his spirtuality keeps him grounded, and some behind the scenes styling stories!

Pamela Henkel and Yashica Mack first became acquainted while participating in Les Brown's Power Voice System training program and Jon Talarico's Thinking Into Results coaching program. During an interview, Pamela revealed to Yashica that she had a vision of a book that would change the world. Pamela stated that this book was placed in her heart, but she had not yet acted upon it. Yashica was intrigued and inspired by Pamela's vision, and so it began; these two visionary authors were called to collaborate and create an anthology that would ultimately bring together more than 35 women to share their stories and offer hope. This episode highlights collaborating author Vanessa Simmons. In 2014, Ghanaian-American mother and photographer Vanessa Simmons authored the Normalize Breastfeeding® movement to address the taboo of public breastfeeding in modern society. Her mission was to document diverse variations of normal infant feeding across cultures and delivery methods of human milk. Through Simmons' viral blog, her photographic speaking tour, philanthropy, and artistic inspiration, she mobilized and motivated thousands of women to share their breastfeeding photos on social media. After a very successful first year, she reached out to the Mayor of San Diego to proclaim June 27th the International Day to Normalize breastfeeding, in support of the worldwide anniversary event! Certified Lactation Educator Counselor and Blacktivist, Vanessa Simmons is now speaking out at conferences and events across the country to eliminate general miseducation around the topic. On the Normalize Breastfeeding podcast, she interviews guests about experiences, advocacy, and activism within the infant feeding community worldwide. As a public speaker, Simmons is focused on transforming the modern mindset around the natural yet difficult task of breastfeeding. Vanessa trains lactation professionals to better understand and connect with millennial families online. She creatively motivates and inspires families to be mindful that this is a time to be cherished, and although fleeting, it is also a time to reinvent what will be acceptable for feeding generations of the future.

Purpose by Design welcomes Vanessa Simmons, first and foremost a child of the Most-High Jesus Christ. Following that, she is a motivational coach, wife of 15 years to her husband, mother of 3 kids, collaborative author of ``Women of the Power Voice”, speaker and mentor to hundreds of women. She is a motivator for all women alike to bring out their power voice inside of them, helping them see themselves like God sees them. She speaks about mental health and how it is necessary to SPEAK to someone about it, and get help. Vanessa goes into detail about how in 2007 her life hit rock bottom. She was having a baby, she was starting a business and she could not control herself, nor did she know how to deal with her issues. She was living a life of depression, how lack of sleep pushed her over the edge to the point she needed to be hospitalized. She goes into depth about how one of the times she was at the hospital, she explains how though her eyes were open, she only saw black. There was nothing she could see but pitch-black. She knew she was in a body-bag. When a man unzipped the bag, saw she was alive he took Vanessa where she needed to go. Next thing - Vanessa woke up in a hospital bed. She believes that the man who unzipped the body bag was an encounter with an angel - something she will never forget. Vanessa goes into more details in the International Best Seller book, ‘Women of the Power Voice' (in the Links Section) - where you can read all about it. She talks about the importance of immersing yourself in Scripture, and talking to God about everything in your life. Vanessa shares how she always aspired to be a speaker, and at a pivotal point in her life, it all came to the surface and she realized she needed to take action once she came across Mr. Les Brown, the one and only. Story, Vision, and Voice - she talks about what these three powerful words mean to her. Vanessa shares how it was hard to get her story out for a while based on her own perception of herself, and how paradigm shifts MATTER. Let God take your story, and touch people's lives. Surrender to who you will become. She talks about surrendering to your future self, and owning that person and being that person and trusting God through the process. Vanessa shares her vision about her upcoming documentary Zion's Cry: Return of the Remnant.
