Adamo Nail Bar

When we (The Adamo Board) decided it was time to pull back on all that we were juggling as an organization, and reassess our priorities, things were emotional. It felt a lot like failure, the struggle to rest was real! But the dawn of a new day brings us gratitude for what we were able to accomplish and what is about to transpire.
🧐
To sit down and analyze our wins and our losses (and learn from both) is humbling but reflection and reformation gives us positioning to withstand the next seasons we will face with more knowledge, more experience, and more empathy than ever before!
🌱
I hope you never despise humble beginnings, because when stewarded with faith and humility, they will always blossom into unbelievable breakthroughs!

Do not be afraid!

We can't change the past, we can't control the future but we CAN remain present and take steps from right where we are today to make an impact in the lives of people who need love the most. Take what you DO have and take a small step of action.

When overcoming our past failures and mistakes we must remember "all we have is now".

Have you ever reported suspicious activity to the trafficking hotline?

🛑

Odds are you have seen signs of a human needing help and have not. We need to do better though y'all. The worst thing that is going to happen if you report information and it turns out to be nothing is nothing. The best thing that can happen is that a life will be rescued and saved.

Once I was at a massage spot in Ca and at check in I realized there were three little kids sitting in a back room where it appeared they werent supposed to be seen. At check put they were still there. They had no toys, no activities, no electronics, they were just sitting at this table. When I inquired about them the receptionist started seeming paranoid and unresponsive to my direct questions. As I left I called and gave the information to the hotline it took less than 5 min. It may or may not have been a trafficking situation but when I laid down that night, I closed my eyes knowing I did not turn a blind eye. We must do better for one another.

There are many differences in each woman's story but one common theme continues to pop up in the stories of survivors... their mothers impact (or lack there of) played a vital part to their understanding of their self worth. The world needs moms who love their children and even reach outside of their own *birthed* children and spread love and truth. This simple act can change a child's life, reducing their risk of trafficking.

Whether someone celebrated you or not you make a difference and you are seen by the next generation who will be the world changers fighting s*x trafficking one day. Tag a mom you know needs celebrating and we will pick one winner to receive and Adamo Pamer Pack 💕

✋🏼 stop ✋🏼

You want to do something to stop trafficking?

Hug your child if they are next to you. Heck squeeze them if you can!

Pray for the parents of missing children to be reunited with their babies.

Pray that the missing children in your community do not fall victim to the schemes of traffickers. That a shield protects them and guides them onto the path of freedom and restoration.

🙏🏽Pray🙏🏽

Is the sun rising or setting?

We believe in every sun rise being an opportunity to {Educate•Empower• Enable} survivors of trafficking through job training programs. We believe in and for women who have survived s*x trafficking and abuse.

We took April to breathe, to rethink our direction and point of focus, we stood still and remembered that HE ALONE is God, April was a month we pressed in to Prayer like we haven’t been able to since we started, we rested and now... It feels so amazing to start with fresh perspective, new vision, and a renewed heart for the call to stand alongside so many great organizations fighting for justice in the live of our survivor sisters.

It’s been tough to not have all of the answers but What we have learned is that all we need to do is “the next right thing”. Come on y’all, you may have messed up today but tomorrow you can start fresh by doing the “next right thing”! Get ready y’all because it’s just the beginning ❤️

Life is messy, stuff is hard, projects take longer than expected. Grace covers it all, make sure to give as much as you need and then a little extra ❤️🙌🏽🙋🏽‍♀️
