Rules for being a Madame

1. Do NOT Apologize for who you are, saying what is wrong/right and what you Believe in.

 HELLLOO!! This is my first ever blog! You're probably wondering..what is this "Madame" Blog all about...and btw, nope I'm not quite done editing the old html design code just yet.. So "Madame"..what is that? Who does she think she is??!Is she trying to say she is the owner of some sort of house of ill repute? Do I "Madame" think I'm ALL that and a bag of potato chips? Miss thang!! ;)

I picked "Madame" as the name of my business because when I was 12 (and looked like a boy with my God given height, and an afro that I had to keep shorter than short on account of my Catholic-All girl Secondary School education) my father still called me "Madame". Which I always thought was hilarious considering my be-spectacled appearance, you know the kind of glasses that were light-sensitive...nice...and nope I'm not posting a child-hood picture! You'll have to burgle my parents house for that! So I picked the term "Madame "as it is reflective and powerful, I'm into both! Fast forward 14 years and here we are, 3 years ago I chose to go down the entrepreneurship path and open a shop selling our own Madame Hair branded products. The idea worked and I now have two shops in Scotland. Step by Step day,day by day!

Entrepreneurship and business means so much to me. We all have our different paths to live, I cant tell you the journey of self discovery I've been on, and the wonderful people I've met. All the learning has humbled me to bring perspective on what is important in this life. One of the many lessons I have been blessed with is GET YOUR FOUNDATIONS RIGHT, then you begin! Know who you are and what you believe in and make NO apologies for it! The rest is between you and God, some people will get you some people simply wont and Nobody said this life was easy. You CANNOT waste your precious time and energies constantly explaining yourself to Brick walls who will never see what you mean, even in 100 years...trust me I've been there, it's a no-win situation 
In this weekly Blog I will bring together the many things(musical,art,hair,fashion,business,people) that inspire, me in hopes that you can benefit from them and also share your inspirations, we need Soul food SO much in this sometimes desperate day and Age!
