Salutations and thank you for logging on to Dazzle Magazine issue 7. It is often said that the pleasure of life is to work hard, but also to work smart in trying to achieve your goals. Many of the personalities we have featured in past and current issues have been a living testament to this adage. They’ve managed to survive in these difficult economic times and reap the rewards of success by virtue of pure determination. Those young and talented Saint Lucians have shared their experiences with us so that we can better understand the challenges they’ve had to face, and also to encourage others. I would like to wish all of them continued success in the New Year.
In issue 7, Dazzle Magazine got the opportunity to explore Dale Elliot’s UNTOLD STORIES and discover why he believes passionately that there is no greater joy than helping to create positive change in the lives of others; Sir Lancealot tells us why he did not take the traditional route to fulfill his dreams but instead, followed his heart in his bid to become a Man of Music; Debbie Kohdra James, one of Saint Lucia’s leading hairstylists and cosmetologists brings us up-to-date with current trends in hairstyling and skin care, and reveals how she has managed to keep on top of her game; Funny-man Coaks who continues to promote Saint Lucia’s culture at home and abroad through comedy, shares his life story and shows how the art of comedy can help to transform lives and the society; we meet high-flying volleyball star, Julian Biscette who is all set to take the sport of volleyball to the next level; and our main feature, Roberta Nadia Polius-Desir discloses why she’s not afraid to take risks and how she always succeeds in rising to the occasion.
With that said, I hope issue 7 captivates and delights you! On behalf of Dazzle Magazine, I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year.
