Wind Of Change

I think we all agree that the world's economy and infrastructure is in a dire need of restructuring and we need a leader with a vision. A leader that understands and can look at the big picture . The world is closing in on itself, whether it's war, racial divide, debt, or political corruption, and the list goes on. I must say I was disappointed with last years Oscar awards. It wasn't necessarily the host's fault that it was a "white Oscars", but I think it proves a point of how this country is being led. Look at the first three slots for Best Actress. All White. No diversity despite what race or gender. Hollywood may not be directly related to the worlds economy, but it certainly affects the mindsets of people both young and old around the globe.

A beautiful friend once told me 'do not worry about our people, we will always find a way'. That was a nice story and although we are grateful for it, what I think is: 'Let's do it ourselves '. I would like to be part of that 'let's' and look forward to changing the world with you.

For now, I'm working on my startup. A collaboration tool to make your every day work easier. EhmDee is under development and we are at the very beginning of our journey!

Introducing EhmDee

EhmDee is a collaboration tool that will make your work life easier.

Working alone or in a team? With EhmDee you manage your projects, activities and tasks in one place. Leave all the discussions and pointless meetings back in the office and focus on what you want to get done.

It might sound like something out of this world but we are convinced that there are people out there who are looking for something like this. We want to work hard to make them happy.

How can you help?

First of all; thank you! We know you won't, but please don't forget your credit card number when signing up, then we can get going without waiting for fundraising.

We are looking forward to talking with you. Our ideal user is someone who loves to be organised.

For 5 years, I managed a business in Paris. I worked 9 to 6. I got home at 7pm. Inevitably, my children were in bed before me. One day, my boss called me into his office: "I will be frank with you. You are doing well. But you need to work more. It's the only way for your business to grow."

It was a blow to me. A smack in the face. I felt like he was telling me that I had no other option than to give up my life. I decided to do something better: At the end of the year, I left this job and started my own fashion brand EhmDee , that gives back to the community through sustainable shopping and recycling practices.

In France. For each piece you buy, Beehive Social Enterprise (BSE) provides clean drinking water for one person in India or Africa through UNICEF.

This initiative is part of our overall commitment to elevating more voices within entrepreneurship and comes on the heels of our $1 million donation to NAACP, Black Health Alliance Canada, and Campaign Zero.

After a long time, for all those who have business ideas but thinking: "It is not the time to do it". In the near future it will not be, because there is a deep change to happen.

So much people are suffering because of the current economic crisis and many don't see clearly the way to get out of it. This doesn't mean that they don't fight.

We need a wind to restructure our economy, and the only way to do it is give opportunities to everyone, by creating new economic models which are more just and fair.
