Meet Spirit BUTTERFLY of Atlanta

Today we’d like to introduce you to Spirit BUTTERFLY.

Hi Spirit , we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I am a Bronx, New York-born and Atlanta raised Natural Hair-Care Specialist, Actress, Songwriter, Fitness Consultant, and Entrepreneur who has successfully developed DIGESTIBLE hair and skin products, that consistently deliver amazing results for my customers and clientele!

Since 2001, I have graced the pages of countless industry magazines, and appeared in numerous music videos, television shows, and movies. I have promoted top-selling artists within well known record labels, and worked as a model and hairstylist within the fashion and entertainment industries, respectively.

Currently, I am working with amazing Atlanta-based musicians and producers to create an all-female music cypher. I am also very proud to announce my new podcast: The Radio GODDESS | Spirit BUTTERFLY: The BUTTERFLY’s AFFECT Podcast™
“Frequencies In The Airwaves…”™, in which I interview rising artists, entrepreneurs, and global ambassadors (from around the country) within the music industry through Sony Hulk Radio.

I am also revamping and branding one of my YouTube Channels, “Golden Skin Wavy Hair Jamaican,” into vlogs of lifestyle and beauty content dedicated to (and exclusively for) women of Caribbean, Afro-Latin, and American Culture and Heritage. This particular channel will be comprised of fashion tips, beauty tutorials, and cultural posts that advocate Caribbean and multi-cultural beauty…

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
As I reflect on major past experiences in my life, including many recent events that have demanded my full attention and observation; I came to the realization that I have overly extended myself in ways that have left me emotionally exhausted and mentally fatigued.

I have given so much of my time, my support, my counsel, my love, my blood, sweat, my tears, my heart, my attention, resources, patience, my word, money, and my trust to thousands upon thousands of people without first considering my own goals and/or feelings.

The parts of myself that I shared openly and willingly, yet should have kept secret; and other aspects to where I stayed silent, when I should have opened up and expressed how I truly felt. Being the giver and nurturer to see others happy, yet feeling unappreciated, undermined, and confined is a self inflicted pain that burns deep within the soul…

As a beacon of light and hope in a world of darkness and chaos, my soul was chosen to spark global change and transformation… yet at the expense of what?

Realizing this epiphany is where my world changed. I have now fulfilled the mission of giving wholeheartedly unto others before myself for the sake of “being supportive,” “being a team player,” “being understanding and unproblematic,” “being a good partner,” “being a good parent,” or “being a good woman.”

I have released the need to give my attention, time, and energy to anyone or anything, before my own feelings and necessities, no matter how minute or grand the situation may be. That version of me have served ‘her’ purpose, so that the authentic, redefined, unapologetic, truth-living Self can now flourish…

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
As the Founder and Creative Director of FARASHA KAA, and FARASHA KAA Apparel, I have established myself in the Health and Beauty industries as an innovative trendsetter, who creates specialty goods and services for the everyday consumer that desires to better themselves and their lifestyle, from an wholistic standpoint.

I am grateful to hold the title as the only entrepreneur who creates DIGESTIBLE hair and skin products with versatile qualities, and a fitness apparel line that transforms from the gym to an evening out on the town!

I am recognized amongst my peers as one of the few “go-to” figures in the hair and fitness industries for almost 25 years now; starting out in the early 2000’s as a creative hairstylist and published hair magazines’ model, to later promoting artists (within well known record labels), and appearing (as a model) in music videos of celebrity performers… all while attending Clark Atlanta University with a major in Theater Arts!

After my sophomore year at CAU, I eagerly dropped out to pursue a career in both music and screen-writing, and managed to appear in over 20 television shows and movies (as an actress) to date.

What sets me apart from other multi-talented artists, is my authenticity, personality, and multi-faceted creativity. There are so many layers to my thought process, and what my mind can perceive. I attract people from different backgrounds, ages, and cultures just from speaking, in which I have made many wonderful connections through various experiences.

Can you talk to us about how you think about risk?
As we navigate through intense emotions, feelings, and daily experiences in a human bodysuit on this planet we call life, it is quite natural to feel the ebbs and flows of frequencies and energies.

Realizing that the only true control we have is of our own thoughts, and responses to outside stimuli, I have come to the conclusion that it is actually healthy to take risks, and relinquish control over certain aspects of your life to maintain peace and sanity.

My perspective of “risk” is doing the best that I can do in any given situation, and after imprinting positive thoughts and wishes surrounding the particular situation, allow it to naturally unfold as an observer of the situation, all while maintaining my truth and uplifting my goals.

Having a strong spiritual belief system can assist substantially, as “risk-taking” with trust and faith allows for a situation or circumstance to naturally resolve in order and perfect alignment with unseen forces.
