NOTE FROM PLUS FASHION MODEL, LATONIA “SHOSTOPPA” MARTIN

 

“Hello!

My name is Latonia Martin and I am a strong, powerful, black female in the fashion industry. Hence, why I refer to myself as “Shostoppa.” My long term goals are to get my Master’s Degree in Nursing and become an established business woman alongside a successful print model. Because having a thriving modeling career involves a lot on investment, I wish I had’ve started as a young child.

I have a ton of things coming up such as modeling in The Midwest Summer Classic fashion show produced by Rush Radio! Having awesome role models such as Ashley Graham modernizing and popularizing being “plus size,” I feel that it is much easier for curvy women to achieve flourishing fashion careers!

I stand behind chasing your cheams and not stopping until goals are accomplished. I may slow down but don’t count me out! Believe me when I say that I run towards my fears, not away from them!

Love,

ShoStoppa”

A Note From Brown Sugar's Balloons CEO, Iesha

"My main mission in life with my work is to provide joy for any occasion and let others know that you can build your business enough to reach back and lift others! We are community, we volunteer as much as possible with different community organizations. We have a scholarship fund, provide Christmas sponsorships to families up to $500 per family for 2 families each year, and we have hosted Veterans' Thanksgiving dinners. Now we teach others in our community how to become economically empowered with owning their own Balloon Designs business.

I am so proud of my accomplishments because I am not only showing my babies that it is possible to live their dreams, but I am showing others that it is possible to have lived their dreams fearlessly.

Some of my proudest accomplishments were being asked to do decorations for the cities only daytime talk show WindyCity Live, being Awarded a car that was paid in full, being inducted into my Almatar Hall of Fall, being able to empower other women, just to name a few.

I tell Black youths to go for it. There will never be perfect timing. You have to just do it! Get you a mentor, work for someone else in that field first. Set goals, write them down, surround yourself with others that wants to see you do well. Take the mistakes/failures along the way as learning lessons. DO NOT compete with anyone other than yourself because you only see the surface you don't know in reality what the next person went through to get where they are. Most importantly everyone's Journey is different. Own your niche!"

In The Job Mindset, you will learn that as believers in the body of Christ, we are charged with spreading the good news of Jesus throughout the community and the world. We are anointed by God with our gifts and talents that we use to usher in the Spirit of the Living God; ministering to his people through spoken word, song, dance, etc. Nevertheless, how do you incite others to praise God and worship Him in Spirit and in truth when your life is in shambles? How can we convince others when we are the ones in need? The answer, we dig deep, stand up tall and proud knowing that our God will supply our needs and find our war cry, we develop the Job Mindset.
