Today's edition is quite special because it's all about Women Equality. Women are gradually taking center stage in every sphere of life. It has been a worthy struggle to get to where we are but hey we are here and that's the way its going to be. Just yesterday, a 25 year old lady was made the youngest judge in Easley, South Carolina. It definitely won't stop here.  Today, I bring to you CEO Surah Bawa Couture.

  I love it when women take charge and are appointed positions of leadership not because of their looks but because they possess what it takes;merit.  Jasmine Twitty, a 25 year old African American young lady and a graduate of College of Charleston was appointed as a Judge in Easley, South Carolina .

  The US Food and Drug Administration has approved a libido-enhancing drug for women dubbed the "female Viagra" or "Pink Viagra". Flibanserin, a drug produced by Sprout Pharmaceuticals and marketed as Addyi, recently passed an FDA advisory committee meeting. It has been criticised as having only marginal benefits and rejected by the FDA twice before.

I know #MyHustle is coming to you late this week but this girl had her own hustle going on too.  This week its @rexxuberfresh. I personally call him Captain and he loves it.  "Music is my main hustle. My OAP job is well a job and as much as I enjoy doing it, music is the bigger picture. I draw my inspiration from creative minds that have added value to our world either by solving a problem or adding aesthetics in the form of art. People like Michael Jackson, R.Kelly, Tuface, Steve Jobs etc. People should look out for great music and performances from Rexx".

Lately I find myself listening to different genres of music. From rock, pop, country, jazz and and and. So I have just being a music whore trying to find the one I'm most comfortable with.  Of all the genres of music I have been experimenting lately, Soul tops my list. Now Soul is believed to be music for only mature minds, whatever that means! I have even been told that you need to be of a certain age group to understand the message that lies in soul music. Honestly, I couldn't disagree more. 

photocredit: google.com Google Inc, the $US445 billion search advertising giant, shocked the corporate world this morning when it announced a sweeping overhaul of its business and a (rather nauseating) re-brand of its corporate entity.   On the stock exchange, what was once Google will henceforth be known as Alphabet. Google, the thing you use to search for stuff, will be still be known as Google, but is now just one of Alphabet's many businesses.  The company will continue to operate as Google in most of the important ways, including the search engine that made it one of the world's biggest companies. But it will operate a holding company named 'Alphabet', announced after stock markets closed.

Whoop Whoop!!!,Its another beautiful Monday and  its time for another edition of #MyHustle. Today I feature a young man popularly known as Africa. 

So I was scrolling through the Internet like I love to and I stumbled on a picture of a recently married governor with his foreign wife. I zoomed in closer to get a good view of the lady and my conclusion was, “this girl no fine, abeg, She's just yellow. I fine pass am”

The visual quality might be a bit poor but its audio is quite clear. Esther's face was not shown in the video, just the girl she was initiating. According to the man that posted the video on Facebook, he confirmed the voice of the woman speaking behind the camera belongs to Esther.

TAKE YOUR TIME TO READ THIS...Once I get my hands on the video and  I will post it on here.

I found this while one of my  favorite  magazines, Cosmopolitan Magazine. Quite interesting stuff so I thought I should share. There is love in sharing, right? The popular women magazine that focuses on beauty, relationships, dating and sex advice, and fashion suggested the tips below as what all 20somethings must do. Interestingly, some of them I have done while others I am guilty of. So I hope reading this will help just as it has helped me focus on my self development. The good thing is they are absolutely realistic. If you are above 20, its not too late to still try. it is certainly better than not making an effort at all.

#MyHustle personality for today is  Adeshina Abisoye. He is the CEO of Bisoyewades; a b espoke service for suits of all types (men only), be it weddings, office suits, formal and informal jackets. 

So I decided to show myself some love today. Although I thought I wasn't looking particularly glam, I got so many compliments today, I was elated. I guess the saying "less is more" is certainly true.

This might be another very controversial article that I get to post on my blog weekly. This is because every now and then I get to meet very interesting people and I am constantly reminded that we view life differently. Before I continue, I'll advise only 25s and above to read this. I believe this age range can relate with this topic appropriately. However,  I'm open to contrary views.
