Today we are spotlighting one of our Detroit members, Anna Warner-Mayes, and her business, @thelipstickjourney !!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "Every woman's life takes a different path; mother, daughter, sister, friend. I am all of these, plus I have cancer. This has been my journey for over 10 years, and the fight is real. I am a fighter.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A lot has changed for me in the past decade, but what has not is my relationship with lipstick. I have always loved it, and because of my theater experience I learned about the transformative power of color at a young age.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Cancer has always colored my moods and lipstick has helped me communicate them.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For years I have dreamed of creating a great product that would connect people not only to my story, but to the power of their own. Part of that dream has been to find a way to give back in a tangible way to cancer fighters and survivors. I discovered that beauty comes from story and that lipstick can be your expression. Each color I've chosen communicates a mood or a feeling - no words necessary.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Life is your canvas. This is The Lipstick Journey" ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #damescollective #fempreneur #sandiegonetworking #sandiego #sd #getshitdone #femalenetworking #ladies #sdnetworkinggroup #fiercefemales #girlboss #ladyboss #girlpower #sandiegosmallbusiness #sdsmallbusiness #landygang #entrepreneurslife #entrepreneur #womanentrepreneur #femaleentreprener #femaleentrepreneurs #sandiegolocal #sandiegolocalbusiness #strongfemalebusinessowner #femalebusinessowner #girlssupportgirls #empoweringwomen #empoweredwomen #empowerwomen #dames
Today we are highlighting Saffron & Sage, located in San Diego! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "Saffron & Sage connects communities to consciously curated wellness resources: practitioners, places, practices and products. We do this through creating therapeutic healing spaces, from our daily social media contributions to our weekly blog offerings. Our teachings become tangible through our multi-sensory experiential events held in Southern and Baja California as well as in our bio-individualistic in-home and on-location holistic healthcare services offered in San Diego. All of which will soon be available under one roof in San Diego with the opening of Saffron & Sage's first Urban Studio & Spa." ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #damescollective #fempreneur #sandiegonetworking #sandiego #sd #getshitdone #femalenetworking #ladies #sdnetworkinggroup #fiercefemales #girlboss #ladyboss #girlpower #sandiegosmallbusiness #sdsmallbusiness #landygang #entrepreneurslife #entrepreneur #womanentrepreneur #femaleentreprener #femaleentrepreneurs #sandiegolocal #sandiegolocalbusiness #strongfemalebusinessowner #femalebusinessowner #girlssupportgirls #empoweringwomen #empoweredwomen #empowerwomen #dames

What does self care look like for you? Today we are spotlighting Cultivate: a counseling collective, located in San Diego.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "Here at CULTIVATE, we understand that there are seasons in each of our lives when⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ we are left feeling out of touch with ourselves, functioning poorly in our⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ relationships, or crippled by anxiety, depression, trauma, or addiction.

Today, get back to living the⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ restored, whole life that you were made for." ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #damescollective #fempreneur #sandiegonetworking #sandiego #sd #getshitdone #femalenetworking #ladies #sdnetworkinggroup #fiercefemales #girlboss #ladyboss #girlpower #sandiegosmallbusiness #sdsmallbusiness #landygang #entrepreneurslife #entrepreneur #womanentrepreneur #femaleentreprener #femaleentrepreneurs #sandiegolocal #sandiegolocalbusiness #strongfemalebusinessowner #femalebusinessowner #girlssupportgirls #empoweringwomen #empoweredwomen #empowerwomen #dames
To some of us self care is putting on a face mask and laying in bed all day and to others self care can simply be going on a 20 minute walk everyday. It's important to know self care is different for everyone and there isn't just one way to practice it! How do you babes practice self care? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #damescollective #fempreneur #sandiegonetworking #sandiego #sd #getshitdone #femalenetworking #ladies #sdnetworkinggroup #fiercefemales #girlboss #ladyboss #girlpower #sandiegosmallbusiness #sdsmallbusiness #landygang #entrepreneurslife #entrepreneur #womanentrepreneur #femaleentreprener #femaleentrepreneurs #sandiegolocal #sandiegolocalbusiness #strongfemalebusinessowner #femalebusinessowner #girlssupportgirls #empoweringwomen #empoweredwomen #empowerwomen #dames
