NATALIE, DO YOU HAVE ANOTHER PROJECT WE CAN START TO DECLUTTER? NATALIE: YES, IT'S SIMILAR TO DANIELLE'S, YOU MENTIONED THE PHONES BEING THE MINI COMPUTERS. WE THINK THAT IT IS REALLY WORTH IT TO TAKE THE TIME TO GET YOUR HOME SCREEN ON YOUR PHONE AS MINIMAL AS POSSIBLE. SO MOVE ALL BUT THE MOST EXCEPTIONAL APPS TO THE SECOND PAGE, IT'S NOT THAT MUCH MORE EFFORT TO SWIPE TO GET TO THEM AND KEEPING YOUR MAIN SCREEN AS MINIMAL AS YOU CAN WILL MAKE A HUGE IMPACT OF THE VISUAL CLUTTER YOU TAKE IN THROUGH ALL THE TIMES YOU LOOK AT YOUR PHONE THROUGHOUT THE DAY WHICH IS MORE THAN WE LIKE TO ADMIT.

Everyday, couples decide to go their separate ways after experiencing infidelity.

Recently, actress Nia Long dominated the headlines after her fiance, Boston Celtics head coach Ime Udoka, had an affair with a woman within the organization.

Infidelity is nothing new, of course. For decades, the world has witnessed celebrity relationship scandals like Udoka’s cause their marriages to fall by the wayside. For some couples, ending a marriage is an easy and swift decision. For others, business ties play a major factor beyond the personal partnership.

“Lovepreneurs” Demetrius and Dhayany Walker have created a platform to coach entrepreneurial couples on the importance of having both net worth and love worth. The millionaire couple developed the patented formula to provide their community with success in relationships.

The Walkers target entrepreneurship and love through business techniques, networking relationships, key systems and strategies for maintaining a business through personal conflicts. The Walkers are experienced professionals in the relationship industry and 88% of the married couples with memberships are presently involved in successful, forward-moving partnerships.

BLACK ENTERPRISE spoke with the Lovepreneurs about their story and their 5 key tips on how to maintain a business relationship with your partner after experiencing personal betrayal.

TikTok beauty trends come and go, from the moisturizing technique known as "slugging" to stick-on face lifts achieved with cosmetic tape. These days, bleached eyebrows are the newest craze. It's even a filter, making the fad all-the-more ubiquitous on social media. Though it may seem like brows disappeared overnight, this beauty practice is nothing new. According to W Magazine, the look can first be traced back to Elizabethan times -- nearly 500 years ago. As explained by historian Rachael Gibson, "We see people really starting to remove their brows in Europe in the Middle Ages, and by the Elizabethan era it was popular to completely remove or bleach out the brows." Social elites were expected to boast "high" and "wide" foreheads, a look achieved by either plucking or bleaching brows. It wasn't until the 1990s that the aesthetic again achieved mass popularity. Celebrities like Madonna, largely inspired by the drag scene in the 1970s and 1980s, sought to achieve a more-futurist look with invisible brows, per Bustle.

It's 2022 and bleach is back. With celebrities like Kim Kardashian and Lizzo jumping on board, many are attempting to disappear their own brows from home (via Page Six). Though it's much safer to achieve this look with the help of salon experts -- bleach can cause burns or blindness if not handled correctly -- keep these tips in mind if you're set on transforming your brows from the comfort of your own bathroom. 

Take The Necessary Safety Precautions

"You don't realize the impact of brows on a face until you've gotten rid of them," makeup artist Isamaya Ffrench told Vogue. Before you get to work bleaching, test out the look using a filter. This no-commitment trial run will deliver you a better idea of whether you can see yourself with permanently-blonde brows. Fashion Journal sat down with Melbourne stylist Madison Finn to get professional tips for at-home brow coloring. To safely start the process, Finn recommends putting vaseline on the skin surrounding your eyebrows -- this will act as a protective layer. Cling wrap, too, according to the stylist, stops the product from dripping or getting onto eyelashes. It also "keeps the bleach damp -- when bleach dries out it doesn't process as much."

Find a clean mascara wand to use for delicate application. Mix your bleach powder with cream developer and remember, "the thicker the mix the stronger the bleach," per Fashion Journal. Next, and as recommended by makeup professional Ffrench, "Coat hairs thoroughly from root to tip." Any leftover cream can be used to "cover the brows completely until you can't see them anymore." Finn recommends placing cling wrap over your brows as they develop. "Set a timer and have a look, wipe some off and see," she says. "If they aren't blonde enough re-apply and pop the glad wrap back on for 10-minute intervals." Most importantly, if you get bleach in your eyes, flush with water immediately

Keep Your Brows Looking Fresh With Aftercare

After you've completed the bleaching process and are satisfied with your new look, invest in a good purple shampoo. According to Nexxus, purple shampoo neutralizes those brassy tones that often result from bleaching, and will keep your dye job looking fresh for longer. If you're hoping to avoid potential irritation, also apply a vitamin E cream to your brows, per Madison Finn for Fashion Journal. According to Finn, "Eyebrows fall out and new ones grow. You just have to be sure you have enough new growth before you re-bleach or you could further damage the already bleached hairs." With this in mind, wait two to three months before re-applying bleach.

As noted by Bustle, the bleached brow look can also be achieved by applying a light concealer. For those hoping for a less-permanent aesthetic change, makeup can be the way to go. Though at-home bleaching is relatively simple, it's important to remember that this type of hair treatment may not be great for your skin, especially if you're going through a breakout (via Byrdie). When in doubt, call on a trusted friend to ask for support -- you'll be channeling Kendall Jenner at the Met Gala in the span of an hour.

The five-part series will center personal stories from five U.S. communities that have been disproportionately impacted by climate, plastic, and environmental injustice.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- People over Plastic (PoP)—a media platform for powerful, intergenerational, and solutions-oriented conversations at the intersection of environmental and racial justice— today announced a new partnership with Prism, an independent and nonprofit news outlet led by journalists of color, to produce a documentary podcast project that centers real stories of environmental racism. The collaborative podcast will amplify personal stories from people most impacted by climate, plastic, and environmental injustice, humanizing data and helping to drive social change.

"The residents of communities most impacted by environmental racism work, learn, and play in a reality that has not yet surfaced in the mainstream media," said Shilpi Chhotray, host of the podcast series and co-founder and executive director of PoP. "Environmental justice begins with inclusive, compelling, engaging, and personal conversations with community members on the front lines of these issues. Together, we'll learn much more about the industrial polluters and environmental racism that has turned communities in Louisiana, Georgia, Oklahoma, Hawai'i, and Washington into sacrifice zones and regions decimated by settler-colonialism."

Sacrifice Zones are communities situated in proximity to industrial pollutants and factories. An estimated 250,000 people—predominantly BIPOC and of lower income—live in sacrifice zones across the country. Residences are exposed to hazardous air pollution levels and increased cancer risk that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) deems unacceptable. PoP and Prism will focus their reporting on the five regions most heavily impacted by environmental injustice, share personal stories from their communities, and spotlight the systemic injustices leading to the current circumstances.

The first two episodes of the podcast will feature:

The series will source answers to critical questions including: What are the decades-old redlining policies, failed lawsuits, and behind-closed-door corporate deals behind these stories? Who are the politicians and associations involved in the creation and endurance of sacrifice zones and other regions affected by environmental racism? The stories featured in this series will not only document the impact of policy but the innovation of the communities who are living the realities of environmental racism and address two critical questions: How did we get here? Where do we go from here?

"At Prism, we believe that justice requires the full story. We need reporting that centers the people most disproportionately impacted by environmental racism," said Ray Levy Uyeda, a staff reporter at Prism focusing on climate justice and lead writer on this series. "Not only are we hoping to expand the reach of our reporting through this partnership, we also intend to create leverage and resources that can direct solutions and drive social change in local, state and federal policies."

PoP and Prism's collaboration kicks off on October 4 with the release of the series trailer, featuring an overview of what's to come in the next five episodes. Episode releases will span the remainder of the calendar year and will be presented as both news features and 20-minute podcast episodes, to be published on the Prism and PoP websites and all major podcast apps.

PoP and Prism share a deep commitment to ground-up reporting at the intersections of injustice. This documentary podcast series amplifies the justice-oriented journalism that both platforms advance every day, always through the lens of those who are most disproportionately impacted.
