Bye Bye January Blues...Hello 2022.
What is 2022 looking like for you? For us here at Bee True to You, we've been a bit busy refocusing our energy into ways to expand our impact and awareness for our program. To enhance our brands message and all that we stand for. And that, for us, meant a bit of re-branding was necessary. Yep! You heard right! New visuals, new music, updated marketing plans, new script's, on-demand original movies...and the most important yet, our one word. --
A word so meaningful it encompasses our entire mission statement-
Just the other day...
a good friend of mine/colleague/fellow entrepreneur recommended the book ,"Your One Word" by Evan Carmichael. I had briefly mentioned to him in conversation, due to all of the ups and downs this pandemic has thrown our way, I felt the need and the urge to step up the program and re-inpsire not only myself, but my fellow team members.
After reading this book, which I must admit had some pretty challenging prompts for its reader, it really helped me, THATGIRTOBI- founder of Bee True To You. I found myself finally able to narrow down our mission here at BTTY NATION, and what has always been my message at it's truest core. With the help of my crew here at TEAMBTTY, we came up with the following:
"BE[E].. To BEE true and to BEE you. The embracing of being who you truly are is the key ingredient to resilience, joy and self-actualization. "-- Victoria Espinoza- program coordinator at BTTY NATION
Our newly discovered One-Word dates back to how I can best describe feeling as a child. As an adoptee, I always felt different, left out, like a part of me was missing. All I wanted to do was to just "bee". Bee myself regardless of any limitations... to #beepowerful, #beebrave, #beeresillent, #beetrue, #beeyou... just... #bee.
Jump to 20 years later, this word still holds true to myself and this children's business I created. A brand to continually help make and create positive change in the world.

If you find yourself a free moment to spare, I would most definitely recommend anyone who is searching to better themselves, read this book. Who knows what you will discover about yourself.
....What is YOUR one word???
