Within Essence Productions & Gwen Madiba Combining the dots

Within Essence Productions is proud to be bringing you "The Encore"...
If you've read my earlier posts you know about my partnership with Gwen Madiba and know that she has given me the green light as far as the details and managerial aspects of her production are concerned! She's truly a phenomenal woman I enjoy working with!! Being trusted to direct an amazing show of such caliber and purpose is truly humbling. For those who may not know, Gwen and I have known each other for almost a decade and all I can say is that she and I truly know how "to pick" each other’s brain and create magic... I love strong, humble, ambitious women and I believe that's exactly why she and I flow together naturally!!!

Although fashion productions can be rather overwhelming and tiring due to the load of work, I wouldn't trade any of this time spent and invested behind the scenes for anything!!! Not only do I embrace and welcome everyday challenges but I love what I do and enjoy every bit of it...
I am learning so much plus I make it my duty to cultivate and nurture my abilities further!
Seeing the success the show held last year and the level of empowerment it brought upon the local rising talents involved simply reinforced the will to bring this activity forth annually.
See the event details below...

For those who've waited, it's well deserved! Fine wine truly does get better with time... Last year she asked you to "Rip the Fab lane & Rock the dance floor" but this year she's welcoming a romantic breed of new edge and asking you to slay the keys and "Rock" with her...

Giving you a taste of fashion like no other, and taking you on a journey called "explicit fabulousity" with delectable pieces that are set to break you off and keep your mind captivated... Ottawa's own Gwen Madiba, brings you "I AM FASHION: RIP THE FAB LANE" 2010!! The new Spring Collection "Just Gwen" re-defined!! A second annual that is not to be missed!!

The event will feature: Ottawa fashion-savvy designers, special live entertainment not to mention a special guest of honour! The proceeds of the event will be going to the effort relief funds for a project to support women in Haiti and the Micone orphanage in Libreville (Gabon).

THE FAB LANE IS RATED "GS".... Be Empowered, Be Fierce, Be Fabulous :)

Seeing the Light, Not blinded by the Action...

Already in March, time truly doesn't wait!! Hope all of you have been maintaining well... it's been crazy at my end and simply feel like I lost my blogging “spill”! Been setting back taking time to nurture the mind and spirit and did I mention WORK...ha! That word truly never escapes! Back to back it’s been “to & fro”… Yes folks believe it, WEP has been going full force and simply doing what a mentor of mine calls "Birthing the dream"!!!
Gave birth to this baby and now I'm simply taking care of it!! Nourishing her, planting the proper seeds so she can grow and become a powerful force for nations. With such a vision in mind, you know that requires time and space right? Especially at the early stages :)

Nevertheless, exciting things have been in the works and it's truly humbling for me to say that "cloud 9" is understated since the cloud I’m leaning onto is what I call “the infinite”...

I keep on seeing the light and account myself for each and everyone of my actions....
