to make this happen but I know it is God’s
purpose for me to make it happen, so it will be
done.
HimPower: What are you plans to expand the
campaign internationally? Do you have any
events already scheduled? If not, what types
of partnerships are you seeking to make that
happen?
Crystal Adell: I am currently working on a
campaign here in the United States with a
current partnership agreement, and with the
success of this effort we do plan to take it by
global storm so stay tuned!
HimPower: If you had it to do over again,
what would you do differently in starting the
fitness movement? Why?
Crystal Adell: Nothing. It is not just me doing
it; it is the energy that is around me that is
making it happen which is something that I
have no control over.
HimPower: We noticed you have a very appetizing menu of healthy meals. How do you
maintain your fitness meal regime while travelling?
Crystal Adell: Knowing what to put in your
body that is beneficial to it is all the meal
planning you need. Knowledge is the key
here; however, if time is of the essence, meal
prepping is a good way to stay on top of your
healthy eating. This way you are not inclined
to grab and go or eat poorly while travelling.
HimPower: You have a line of vitamins in your
store. Do you have plans to develop a brand
of healthy food options as well?

Crystal Adell: We just added a new line to
our supplement catalog for natural pain relief
called LEVARE. This is an amazing non-narcotic pain relief that also combat a growing
epidemic to prescription narcotics. It uses
twelve natural herbal ingredients that provide
general analgesic relief of pain associated with
headaches, migraines, arthritis, menstrual
cramps, muscle and joint aches, fibromyalgia,
chronic pain and other medical conditions and
symptoms. We are also considering an agreement with the same developers of this product to deliver healthy nutritional meals.
HimPower: Have you considered opening
BWDWO fitness centers? If yes, would they
be company owned or would you franchise?
Crystal Adell: We have considered this along
with other ideas that are geared more towards
wellness.
HimPower: What do you see as your greatest obstacle or challenge to motivating Black
women who do not yet workout on a regular
basis? And what types of things are you doing
to overcome these challenges?
Crystal Adell: I believe wholeheartedly that by
continuing to show the world that we are able
to overcome challenges by remaining positive about the outcome will ultimately combat any perceived obstacles. If I continue to
promote a new lifestyle change for improved
longevity, I will evoke the idea for a different
way of thinking and living. This I believe, will
ultimately begin to change the discussions
that women are having with one another from
beauty and relationships to longevity and
