Hemet <strong>GSFE</strong> Meeting.August<br />
Welcome to the year of Masks & Zoom! An unforgettable year of doom for some, and<br />
n bloom for others. Yes, some have hit the pause button while others are rebooting and<br />
looking for additional opportunities! With that been stated, think for a second, what<br />
would you say about yourself? Where would you place yourself?<br />
If you are challenged, need a friend, business accountability partner or a mentor then<br />
you probably should join us at one of our virtual meetings.<br />
In July we were inspired by Our Speaker Tina Casen ! Tina presented from her heart to<br />
ours. Her story was amazing!<br />
She has served her Country, her family and has done a remarkable job even with the<br />
obstacles thrown in her path. I won?t say too much here , look out for the <strong>GSFE</strong> Chapter<br />
that will have Tina Casen for a Speaker and attend that Meeting. The feedback that I<br />
heard was very positive.<br />
TPlease emailjoanewakeland@gmail.comor text (909) 721-7648 to get the Zoom<br />
meeting ID. The cost will be $10 for members and $15 for guests.<br />
Please join us for a Special hour of networking, fun and conversation!
here were some members that were unable to ?Show Up!?<br />
We never assume that they are okay, the bad news is they were<br />
ill.<br />
No, thank God not that sneaky virus ! The good news is they are<br />
mending from whatever health challenge they experienced. It is<br />
good to check on a friend that always participated and then<br />
suddenly disappear. A shout out to Angeline Benjamin and<br />
Rosalyn Kahn <strong>GSFE</strong> in the Simi Valley Chapter for reaching out to<br />
Members . Rosalyn informed me yesterday that Tina?s mother<br />
was not feeling well so I am asking you all to pray for them both.<br />
I was facing some challenges and Angeline reached out to me. It<br />
is good to know that someone cares !<br />
I checked on Katherine the Great and she was referred to a<br />
Specialist that is one of the top doctors in his specialty so I ask<br />
you to pray for her.<br />
Allysun who is a well known confectioner,<br />
Is ready to take orders again. She is certified to do your goodies.<br />
In August our Speaker will be Darlene Merkler. The topic will be ?.<br />
Is it normal aging or Dementia??<br />
The date will be August 19th, 2020 at 12 noon .

Anxiety During a Pandemic, How to calm ourselves.. send<br />
us a Tip.<br />
Anxiety and Paranoia<br />
It is absolutely normal during this time to be anxious. The<br />
truth is many people are experiencing some level of fear.<br />
People who have certain diseases and are older may have<br />
more fear and anxiety than others. It is understandable,<br />
because they are immunocompromised. What is the real<br />
fear? No one wants to die!
I wear a mask, to prevent any tiny droplets from me going<br />
to you because we are told that this will minimize the<br />
spread and I have allergies so I may get a random sneeze<br />
and I care about you. Now,toadd to my prevention outfit, I<br />
am adding my dark glasses or goggles and gloves! Why do<br />
I sport the plastic gloves? Well I don?t want COVID to stay<br />
with me after I pump my gas and pay for purchases at the<br />
ATM. Sometimes I wrap my head in a beautiful head wrap<br />
to match my outfit! I even put on makeup, fabulous eye<br />
make up! Now you have the picture of an overdressed<br />
Rona lady!<br />
I appear to be a visitor from another planet, probably<br />
Venus. Amazing! I walked into the Bank the Security<br />
Guard, opened the door for me. I can?t believe it, I look<br />
like a bandit and I get service. Before Corona Virus I<br />
looked like a business woman and opened the door all by<br />
myself, even when I had difficulty doing so! Now this<br />
guard even opened the door when I was leaving and said<br />
? Have a nice Day? Times have changed, the Virus has<br />
brought out the ugliness in some folks and the beauty in<br />
others!
So what are you doing to maintain your sanity?<br />
I switch the TV off when I have had my fill or change it to<br />
Music.<br />
Pandora and Spotify are usually waiting for me! That is fun<br />
time for me. I get to visit with my favorite buddies! I can<br />
dance with Bob Marley?s Reggae Music, sing along or relax<br />
with Miles Davis and visit Wintley Phipps for Gospel Music.<br />
At the end of the day I can calm myself down with Andre<br />
Rieu classical renditions and thank my God for all the<br />
provisions he has bestowed on me and my family!<br />
Stay Connected.<br />
I Stay connected with others on Zoom, FaceTime or other<br />
Virtual Platforms. Join our <strong>GSFE</strong> Virtual meetings. Here is<br />

Move Your Body,<br />
Can?t do normal activities get out of the house and just<br />
walk, get some fresh air !<br />
You can start your day with gratitude! Give thanks to the<br />
Lord for giving you the ability to breathe!
Control your Mind: Stay-at-home orders, curfews, lack of<br />
health and medical supplies and Social Distancing are<br />
making our lives more challenging. Imagine having to<br />
work from home with the children interrupting or not<br />
working at all. Now, we should never take the Teachers for<br />
granted. It is not as easy as we thought! Now, we are<br />
irritable with each other because we are cooped up!<br />
Sometimes we don?t know what we have, explore the Web,<br />
there may be an opportunity waiting for you. Open your<br />
mind to new possibilities!<br />
Don?t worry: Really, some people worry when there is<br />
nothing to worry about but this virus is impacting lives! We<br />
have never seen anything like this before. If you don?t care,<br />
wait until it affects one of your relatives, friends or co<br />
worker and they die! When it hits your household, you lost<br />
your business or your job. Let?s do our part in taking the<br />
necessary precautions!<br />
Let?s work at keeping everyone safe!<br />
Let?s spread a little love today!

Congratulations to <strong>GSFE</strong> Member<br />
Chebra Dorsey known as OCHEA<br />
who is a celebrity designer for this<br />
fantastic article in the Inglewood Paper.<br />
O?Chea Fashion Inspires Women<br />
with Power and Confidence<br />
By<br />
Kenneth Miller Publisher
Chebra Dorsey, owner of O?Chea Fashion Boutique.<br />
San Diego native Chebra Dorsey began her career as a licensed<br />
cosmetologist<br />
more than 20 years ago, but for more than the past decade for<br />
personal care<br />
has been designing women clothing fashion.<br />
O?Chea Fashion Boutique in Lemon Grove has been the go to<br />
store for women
O?Chea also inspires individualism and leadership with an abundance of<br />
colors and designs that fuel power and confidence for every woman of all<br />
cultures.<br />
Moroccan actress Karole Foreman who starred in stage play ?Caroline or<br />
Change?is one of her many clients as well as actress Wendy Lynn<br />
Adams and actress Kita Williams of ?Hidden in the Heart of Texas?.<br />
?I believe that it is essential that women feel empowered by what they<br />
wear, it speaks to not only the elegance and royalty they are but the<br />
sound characte and spirit they possess,? Dorsey explained to Inglewood<br />
Today.<br />
The trademark of O?Chea fashion is their quality stretchable fabrics<br />
material, bold and vibrant colors that Dorsey describes as unique<br />
collectables. However, if one were to only chronicle the businesswoman in<br />
Dorsey they would be neglecting many of her core values that define her<br />
foundation.<br />
?I am a very spiritual person who believes in making people happy and<br />
uplifting when and wherever I can,? she said. Before and during the<br />
COVID-19 pandemic her philanthropy work has been on full display.<br />
Within her community she was known for providing specialized hair<br />
services for former cancer patients that had experienced hair loss due to<br />
chemotherapy and radiation treatments.
Children?s Hospital and the Food for Children Foundation.<br />
The California State Senate has recognized Dorsey and Assembly<br />
and more recently received the prestigious Red Blazer of Excellence<br />
& Achievement. She is also a member of Robbie Motter?s<br />
(CEO/Founder) of Global Society for Female Entrepreneurs.<br />
A single mother of an adult son, Andre M. Tanner, Dorsey relies on<br />
her son assistance in promoting her brand and organizing fashion<br />
shows.<br />
Among her unique talents is that promoting and producing organic<br />
products that are customized for each client?s hair care needs.<br />
Fashion Boutique located on 7951 Broadway Ave, Lemon Grove and<br />
can be accessed online at O?Chea Fashion Production at Facebook
