Sistah Spotlight is a way to showcase women who I think are accomplishing wonderful things and it is also a way to promote what they were doing through my blog. Through Sistah Spotlight I will feature an African American woman who is doing great things both in social media and also face to face out in our community.
For this month’s Sistah Spotlight, I’d like to shine light on Ms. Tanya Tibbs. Please allow me to introduce you to: Ask Tanya Smart (formerly known as The V-Bar Lady). Tanya is the brilliant mind behind Smart Self Care Products which is her holistic product line and Wombtique her brick & mortar boutique whose focus is womb healing. Through both of these independently owned and operated entities, Tanya’s focus is on helping women to unlock their wombs. She believes that many of the physical, mental and emotional problems that women have stem from issues with the womb. In today’s society women rarely openly discuss what is going on between their legs and how it affects what goes on inside them. One of the big issues for women (specifically African Amercan Women) is uterine fibroids and Tanya shares ways that fibroids can be prevented as well as healed naturally. Statistics show that:
Most American women will develop fibroids at some point in their lives. One study found that, by age 50, 70 percent of whites and 80 percent of African Americans had fibroids. In many cases, fibroids are believed not to cause symptoms, and in such cases women may be unaware they have them. – US Dept. of Health & Human Services
Our mission is to help increase awareness & education of women by reconnecting them to their wombs. ~Ask Tanya Smart
Through her products and facilities Ask Tanya Smart is able to reach women and help them heal mentally, physically and spiritually by teaching them about their womanhood and it starts with our wombs. She specializes in holistic services by offering all natural hygiene products (which includes the V-Bar) as well as physical services such as V-Steam (vaginal steaming). She also hosts year round workshops and events such as:
Healing Fibroids Naturally
Single Man Married Man (for the fellas)
Wine, Wellness & You
At Wombtique people are free to share their experiences and learn from one another is a group setting. You can watch her promotional video right here.
Tanya Tibbs is a beautiful woman spirit, whose passion is reflected in all that she does. I have been aware of her for many years and I have yet to see her face without a smile on it. You can feel her energy whenever she walks into a room. She openly shares her story and the things that she has overcome and that is the foundation that she stands on to help other people. I am honored to shine light on her for Sistah Spotlight!!
