Mena! Mena! Mena! Sister! Sister! Sister! You spoke a WHOLE word in this video. I was in literal tears because it’s only been the glory of God and things that I have been through that have driven me to go so hard. It is through God’s grace and his mercy that he has woken me up EVERY DAY with the strength and determination to do what I do each day for my family. I will forever salute you for your realness and transparency. You darling are fabulous and I pray that God continues to reward you and give you the ability to do what you do. Now let me go wipe these tears because baybeeeee you had me about to start shouting!!! Look at all God has done for me!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Shout, sis! Listen! When you’ve been through somethingggggggggg - it’s the determination that no one can rob you of!! Come on! And that just came out. Blurry video and all - it just came out and I know the Lord has had his hand in my life all along the way. Forever grateful. Rooting for you!

This entire video blessed me… especially your singing. I immediately when it worshipping God while I was driving. Thank you and God bless you!
I needed to hear that insert I’m literally in the TOUGHEST season of my life. Trying to figure out what’s next feeling like my prayers aren’t being heard. I’ve even been trying to stay of off social media because it makes me feel inadequate.
Your singing literally stopped me in my tracks and took me back to church lol. “How great thou art” is soo nostalgic for me 💜

😂😂😂 I love your personality and how you encourage yourself. Sis when you started singing i almost cried because the words just hit me. Sometimes we go through things and have to remind ourselves how great God really is and nothing is too hard for him...You stay having me laughing. Congrats on the surgery and you look amazing.
May God continue to bless you, you beautiful soul. You are a new discovery for me and surely you was sent. Every word, every message was heard and felt. This video was exactly what I needed at 8:30 this morning. How blessed are you! That voice, I shed literal tears. Beautiful just perfect

Go 'head SuperModel Mena!

Menaaaaaa a whole word!!!! I love you soooooo much Mena! Thank you for this video, God will continue to bless you!
Amen and I receive it!! Thank you!
Truly enjoyed this video(like all of the rest) . Beautiful voice too! ❤
Thank yewwwwww
So many many moments in this video... I'm watching and pausing and coming back...
I understand what that lady at Starbucks said about you being pretty...It's the hydrated skin, the good attitude and just the moisturization because your skin looks GOOD!
I'm so happy you're happy with the results! OMG! I can tell about the natural weightless as well! I'm so glad you donate to a women's shelter. A lot of people don't think about doing that and trash their clothes, which is unfortunate.
The pep talk... being myself someone who is "trying" to be a content creator since 2011 (and life getting in the way) your "why" just motivated me. I need to keep going and do the best I can do with what I can do. Ah! It seems like there is always a takeaway with your videos.
Your testimony about the is powerful Mena. You are doing wonderful 💖
Wow - I’m so grateful! I can’t lie, sometimes I feel the pressure to “entertain” in my videos. But it’s comments like these that motivate me to just keep it real. The barista sure did catch me off guard and it made me smile. So sweet of her and so glad I could encourage you. You got this!
I feel you sis … you have spoken to my soul especially 47mins🔥🔥🔥
Hugs!!
Thank you so much for your transparency it’s really appreciated. I would really love a video on the total cost or an estimated amount including post recovery cos this has been an eye opener for me . Thank you ❤
Sure! I’ve got more videos coming to explain more. It def adds up!! Almost $3k in post op massages
@@MENA_ADUBEA 🥲🥲😱😱😱🫢🫢🫢🫢😲 okay I really need to save up some more but your results are so worth it . Thank you for responding
I had to pause the video to comment after that encouragement. I needed the reminder to keep going. Sometimes as a young woman from a tiny island it can be very overwhelming but I REFUSE TO GIVE UP. My daughter will never know what it is like to take bread and ketchup to school because I won't let it happen. I'm not there yet but by the grace of God I will keep going. Thanks for sharing...You're like an internet big sister in my head. I'm inspired🌻
Aaw sissy! Hugs!! They will have better in Jesus name. Chills! Hugs for you!!
AMAZING ‼️‼️‼️ MENA YOU ARE A WHOLE VIBE‼️‼️ ETHEARL BABY YAS‼️‼️‼️
Thank you so so much!
You were losing a lot before the surgery. The doctors like you to do that anyway cause the surgery just enhances
We’ve seen the new shorts so we know you feeling yourself. I said that weeks ago, we are prepared to be sick of you!! In a good way! I’m so happy for you
True and hahahahaha girl! You already know! 💕💕
Girl that mouthwash 🔥 📛 amazing! I got the travel packs for my upcoming trip. Girl...thanks for putting us on!

God bless you Mena for the inspiration. I felt so surprised when you got so emotional because I have always thought you are very strong. I’m inspired. Thanks for the reminder that we need no one to motivate us but rather motivate ourself and also have something to drive us. Medaase paa, Nyame nhyira wo.
Amen and amen! The emotional part is strength, sis. Only strength and God has gotten me this far 💕🙏🏾
Amen beautiful sister!!!
Being able to wear a bralette makes it all worth it!!!
Have you done a video on your keto journey? If you haven’t, I’d love to hear about it. 🫶🏾
I got you!
💃🏽💃🏽say it!!
Did anyone look up minds and can't find the answer. The restrictions with accent was hilarious. I love ginger beer and shanty. Can I get your singing voice please.
Menaaaaaaaaaa! If I could reach through this phone and give you a hug I would. Man…..The word that you just shared is amazing.
Huggggggggggs!! Thanks sis
Hey my love ❤❤
Mena... girl!!!! Thank you for sharing the money part! I'm curious, when you started did you start pitching yourself, or did the brands reach out to you?
You’re welcome! Listen - my deals are majority incoming! All God!
@@MENA_ADUBEA well Amen to that!!! 🥂 to you on EVERYTHING
Idk my *why* ! Pray that I figure it out soon 😭
I'm having a hard time finding a tailor to take my other fajas in.
❤❤❤
Let me tell you something baby you spoke straight to me!
Girl.. you look good.. you will start to see a bit more swelling as time goes. don;t get discouraged.. it happens.. as you know.. and say.. you've had major surgery. I can not stress enough.. even when to you.. you will seem healed..trust and believe.. the eye is deceiving, please be patient w/ the bras.. you will want to stay in the wireless bras for at least 8- 12 months. please put 'something' between your skin, (surgical scars) and any material that may come into contact with the area. We as black people have tendency to develop external scarring fast.. it starts slow, then manifest itself. into keloids. Even though you did not keloid w/ your c-section.. this is very different. Good luck with your fast healing. Congratulations
Thanks sis!
Amen🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Girl you my internet friend for real for real…. I’m not even going to write it all out, as to why but yea, it’s the mindset get it girl.
I am early! Let me get some snacks and come back to comment some more
Yessss!
You spoke sis 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Thank youuu
@@MENA_ADUBEA you're welcome 🤗
It’s you busting into an Hispanic accent!! 😂😂😂 you did it ?? You did it???? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahaah listen!! I got alot of diff personalities goin on in one! 😂😂😂😂
Did you ever see that lady who had the unwanted tummy tuck again, during ur massages?
Girl, I have not. I have not-- I hope I see her around the city one day. I will def recognize her. I remember her face
❤️❤️❤️💃💃💃💃
OMG... You are such an inspiration to my life!!!!! If you only knew. One day I would like to find a way to let you know how God had used you in my life. GOD used you to SAVE my life!!!! Literally I'm in tears typing this. Thank you for loving God and allowing him to use you. I love you like a sister Mena!!!!!! Your videos are so much more than makeup and products. They are life. Find away you are willing to allow me to communicate and I'll make it happen. I'll even share my number to tell you my story. Thank God I am ALIVE AND SAFE NOW!!!!!!
Aaw wow! Glory to God! Please feel free to DM me. Wow! So grateful 💕🙏🏾 hugsssss
Are you the only one in ur family that can sing?
Literally, yes! Wild, huh?!
😍💥💅💃🌹
The question of the day…when will the single or album be released?! I’d love to write and produce a song on that album. Now, that talk you were having touched my spirit…I needed that. 🤎 I enjoy your personality so much.
Listennnnnn 😆, Thank you so so much!
