SHETHATLEADS Humanitarian outreach Inspiring Women Entrepreneur


 Joyce uloma Ikpeme, is the founder & CEO of triplejstitches, a clothing brand created in 2015.
A graduate of Adult and Community Education Rivers state university of Science & Technology port Harcourt, Rivers state Nigeria.

She got married in 2011 & moved to united states in 2012 where she put her sewing/fashion designs dreams into practice. She started sewing for others and started making some little income but it was difficult making enough to pay bills. She got an office job but never gave up on her passion for Sewing believing things will get better.

In 2013, she and her husband welcomed their first child, a baby girl.
She was so pretty that Joyce quit her job to concentrate taking care of her baby.

As a nursing mother, she still kept herself very resourceful by attending some online fashion school which upgraded her sewing skills and fashion business but patronage was still scarce.

In 2015, she had her second child followed by third child in 2016. This means more money to take care of her children.

In 2018, Joyce used her teaching degree to get a job as a preschool teacher but, she never stopped being a fashion designer.

One of her worst nightmares in pursuing her fashion design business was, consulting with clients who always promised to patronize her but never did or, called her to explain why they couldn't patronize her.
Joyce never quit on pursuing her fashion design passion due to disappointments but rather, continued looking on the bright side of life that one day, she will become successful.

In 2020 when covid started, she made very good use of the stay-at-home syndrome and started working on her sewing ideas and perfecting her skills. It was at this period she fell in love with sewing children's dresses which is a section of Triplejstitches.

In 2021, she got a call from a client she worked for in 2018 who was getting married. She hired Joyce to design her bridal party wears. That was a deal breaker for Triplejstitches Clothings.

That Client gave Joyce a special gift she will never forget. The client asked Joyce if her business was registered. Joyce said No. She asked why she didn't register her business. Joyce told her she didn't have money to do so.
That same Client offered to help her register her clothing brand as a gift to Joyce.

That turned around positively her sewing passion and, her clothing brand- Triplejstitches got officially registered in the state of Texas in 2021.

Presently, Joyce Uloma Ikpeme is a proud owner of a Clothing brand that caters for customized and bulk production children collections and adult designers Female collections located in Richmond Texas. She has satisfied clients who keeps patronizing her and refers her to new customers too.

Joyce loves and enjoys being a Mom as she watches her children grow and also enjoys her business as a Fashion designer alongside her teaching job.

Joyce Uloma Ikpeme said- "Am not where I want to be but, am not where I started."

HOW DOES STRESS creates OBESITY?

Image
Most people in my country Nigeria, keep asking me how STRESS creates OBESITY. This is because they understand the high level of stress in Nigeria and to them, when you are stressed, A .You do not  have enough time to eat. (too busy chasing money)    B .Eat good food. ( Lack of proper  knowledge of  Healthy eating/poverty)    C . Even not to eat at all. (Lack of Appetite)  Now these people who think this way with their own analysis of stress ''ROAD MAP'' forget that same stress crises also makes it possible for them to eat ANYTHING available to them,  have less/no time to relax/sleep well, no energy to exercise. That's the puzzle of stress link to obesity. Someone is saying ...ahhhhhhhhh....now i see.... First and foremost, the eating, exercise, recreational habits  of  Nigerians are very poor. If am not correct...challenge me...bring -it-on...let's dissect it..... You try to tell someone to eat healthy and he/she goes, -'' The foo

#POWERSTARZ DRill on Fans Choosing Tommy or Ghost...Que??🤔😏

GHOST v TOMMY. #POWERSTARZ series has been all over social media asking #powerfans to choose between being on either GhostTeam or TommyTeam. Crazy ....if you are a good fan of this US gangster drug series which  features, produced/directed by #50cent You might be wondering why I am interested in this flick🤔....are you suprised 🙄? Don't be. Despite all the heavy killings...drugs..sex scenes, it's a good storyline which  exposes how friends influencing can cripple and destroy families and personality traits. Like asking Fan to choose between the two major characters Tommy/Ghost, two close friends who grew up like brothers in the ghetto,   Ghost trying to clean up himself from drugs, killings and go legit but Tommy seems to keep dragging him back to old times dirty deals and stuff. Now, it gets to a stage, both of them had to get rid of each other to survive and that is how this choosing of a thing crops up. For me, it's a tough call to choose...both of them are good in th

BEAUTY vrs REAL LOVE

Image
Each time i see stories of Prince Charles and his late wife, Princess Diana... it always hit me with rushing emotions. I followed their story starting from courtship to the elaborate wedding ceremony that captured the heart of the world. Back then Camilla was in the picture but what most people who loved and still love Princess Diana didn't get a grip on was the ugly stories we have been hearing that led to their sour marriage. Late Princess Diana was always in the tabloids but the reasons why she sought love in the arms of Dodi Fayed weren't made public...at least not to the world. Anyways, the whole gist could be said to be " water under the bridge..." for some but i just want to point out something vital here. It's quite obvious the union was arranged by the Royals. Diana must have loved Prince Charles then but from the turn out and recent events on Camilla becoming the next future Queen of England, has made it obvious that, Prince Charles never loved Princess
