Matter of spring is a special edition and the first of our quarterly specially designed releases The Yellow Cover Magazine Inc has a solid entrepreneurial vision, with plans to work with businesses around the globe, small and large "Recognizing that we wanted this issue to be vibrant and fun, we worked with Nathasa Rae to commission a signature art collection of our soft spoken, passionate sister princesses Yaj & Anai. ™
How we started It was March 2020 and day two of a global pandemic and shutdown. Not understanding the intensity of what felt like an invasion caused me much worry. The passion gripped my heart, something I had never experienced I looked at my children, two of which were essential workers, in panic and said you have to stop working; it is not safe. People are dying, and your job is not worth it; my daughter looked at me with so much passion and said, Mom! "Someone has to be there for the customers." We walked toward this big 9ft door in our apartment and opened it almost in fear of who would be on the other side made a fast dash to the elevator with masks and gloves on and wrapped in plastic front to back On we went out to take my daughter to her work I drove around after, and I saw several closed signs on the door of businesses; I sat in my car in tears and asked: what are we going to do? These businesses will have to keep their name alive; how will we know who is open or not? I decided to write out a business plan and scheduled some appointments I went to a very famous man, Miguel Wilson, and we sat down to discuss my idea, and he gave me some solid advice

Stacey West earned the nickname "Suga" (pronounced "Shuh-gah") when her first grandbaby was born; she didn't want to be called "grandma." She quickly became known as "Chef Suga." Chef Suga graduated from Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts in Atlanta and worked with some of the top chefs in the Atlanta Metro area, including Chef Hilary of The Hil at Serenbe and Chef Holly, Executive Chef of Georgia Grown. With her husband, Robert West, a financial specialist, and her son Quinton Jones, a chef, Suga's Enterprises, LLC launched in April 2016, offering southern brunch favorites. Customers overwhelmingly latched onto the pimento cheese, and Suga's Pimento Cheeses launched in June 2017. Fall in love with Suga's and see what the buzz is all about.

hadidra Muhammad is the Founder and CEO of Priceless Event Planning and to speak to such a phenomenal woman was a great experience Some of the less reported or written stories are stories of great people who do great things, and with our topic, we began this interview The eye for beauty is a gift, and at the beginning of her career, she would often dream of visually dressing the mannequins in the Gap store where she worked as a cashier. This humble talent worked with all the top A list celebrities and left them speechless. My first question was; how do you develop your ideas? 'It all starts with the location, she replied.' I design for the client's personality, but the space is essential.
K It can't be a focal point; it has to be the entire space. Khadidra believes that there must be an impact at every entry point by her vision to achieve a successful overall balance There is no recipe to how her mind works; she thinks about the color, space planning, and the number of people attending. This is a critical factor for this remarkable event planner to ensure that every area of her creativity is in respect of the number of guests. She is more than a designer; she is genuinely heaven sent. I can think of the song, this gift that she has the world didn't give it, and the world can't take it away Back in the time when she worked at the Gap, she would visualize dressing the mannequins or imagining what the holiday themes would be. Khadidra said "I couldn't define what it is that helps me decide overall." She loves to be inspired, and she gets ideas from seeing things on a walk down Fifth Avenue, like a cherry blossom that looks amazing. She stated she would capture it with her camera phone and save it for closer viewing Khadidra started as a one stop shop; she stated it was just me in the beginning ' thinking I could do it all, and in some cases, she did. Her team has grown to about seven, and she only works with top quality vendors She doesn't have a favorite fashion designer, but her love of shoes and handbags is on her list. When you arrive at this level of success, it often comes from life experiences and one day early morning, like 4;15 am. Khadidra was shot unexpectedly; hearing this was shocking, and even at that very moment, she managed to contact all her vendors for an event that would take place later that day Her star power goes without saying, and her work for some A list celebrities brings us to this unique baby shower photography. Her clients are the best, and this Baby Wright project was designed for Taina and G Herbo. We give it up for this impressive and beautiful woman. Moreover, Khadidra's magic is worth taking note of. For a stellar event design, don't hesitate to get in touch with her today via email: Contact: info@pricelesseventplanning.com

MagazineCoverYellowTeam
Introducing Jess. Born and raised in Texas, she moved to the peach state in 2011 at 17 with no plan, just searching for bigger things In 2018 she attended Paul Mitchell The School Esani in Roswell, following her passion for Beauty; unfortunately, styling hair didn't cut it for this Beauty. In 2020 she discovered permanent makeup; it blew her mind Jess had been filling her brows since 2011, and after going through all the ugly brow stages, she finally had perfected it but still was that girl who couldn't go to the pool in the summer; the fear of being brow less! She decided to invest in her future and perfected her brows in March 2021. Jess especially loves how low maintenance and time saving permanent makeup is, but her true passion is giving women confidence. "I didn't have it for many years. I've been her." Her clients are a huge part of her life, & she's built solid lifelong friendships Overall her goal is to have each client leave with healthy, beautiful brows and feel confident when they walk out the door.
"GETTING MY BROWS MICRO BLADED WAS THE REAL GAME CHANGER. I KNEW I WANTED TO GIVE EVERY WOMAN THE SAME EXPERIENCE. "

ARTIST NOTE TheYellowCoverMagazineIncMay2022SpringEdition www.nathasarae.com MagazineCoverYellowTeam
athasa is my name and my day starts at 7 am with a good morning from my new puppy or young daughters As I work myself out of bed, I take our puppy on a walk, and my girls tag along We start our homeschool curriculum aiming to be done by noon As I put my kids down for naps and quiet time, I begin working on commissions, art designs, and illustrations. My father routinely stops by each day and helps clean up and take care of the kids when needed so that I can focus on my art.
Each day, I will fight the best I can to serve and love my family well and create artwork that will inspire others to keep going. I started my warriors to inspire me to push through the most physically painful moments of my life. I knew that I was not alone in feeling heartache, pain, and depression I knew others needed to be encouraged to continue to go on while embracing their true natural beauty
N My husband returns home from work and enjoys cooking dinner. This gives me focused time with my art and often a napping puppy at my side. I break for dinner and family time, frequently walking with the family and dog before helping my husband put the kids down for bed I then continue working on art at times until a late night stroll with the puppy breaks up the focus I then fall asleep to repeat this routine the following morning. However, life is not always this perfectly planned out ideal routine. So often see our lives through the Instagram lens, trying to make ourselves look 'perfect.' More honestly, I have medical issues that can significantly impact my daily functioning In reality, I wake up at a range of times depending on my physical and mental health I'm not perfect at homeschooling, but I try hard to ensure my daughter learns every day. My father is a great help, and even with his support, I struggle between the back and forth of art and giving attention to kids who want some mommy attention, and yes, I struggle with mom guilt. Bedtime for the kids is a whole other battle itself. Then I sit down to work on art with varying energy levels and often pain as my chronic illness or mental health struggles to not just sleep
