Jamaica is now in the CoronaVirus containment mode and you don’t need another person in life, to tell you to keep washing your hands or #staythef*ckhome.

What I do want to tell you though, is that that, there is a heightened need to take care of your mind and body, so you can stay healthy, calm, focused and still joyful through all of this.

So I curated a list of women-led businesses that I know and have been observing for a while. These businesses are headed by women I consider Rebel Grrls, because they are doing things differently and unapologetically in their respective lanes. They are industries that will grow exponentially over the coming years, because of the consumer mind and behaviour shift. They have products I believe that can be useful to you as we go through this moment in time.

Their businesses are in the food and wellness industries and you can view the products online, order them and have them delivered. This is a great time to get what you need and support local businesses.

Here is my list.

DeLaEnzie Essentials 

This is an all-natural plant oil company. They make and sell authentic Jamaican essential oils, fixed oils, butters, mix oils, soaps, candles, and their accessories. They have 36 products from local herbs and plants including Cannabis and sell hand sanitizers made right here. The Company is headed by entrepreneur Dr. Chenielle De La Haye.
