The Dare Dreamer Movement by Julene Fleurmond

Today I added the story behind my creative clothing line Envibrance Dream Apparel to the store and wanted to share it here as well.

The first phase of the Envibrance line is designed and dedicated to young people, in combination with my youth motivational speaking services. Later I will be launching a special Dreamfleur Line especially for women, as well as expanding the line for men. Read more about the story behind the line below.

I’m also partnering with my friend and mentor, motivational coach and speaker Evelina Solis (pictured above), founder of the inspirational speaking company Sol2Soul to spread the message of the line. Watch Evelina and youth motivational speakers Gabe Salazar and Patrick Perez introduce the line below:

The Story

Julene, the founder of Envibrance Dream Apparel was inspired to begin the company after a series of events:



– Ever since she was a child Julene has enjoyed painting, drawing, and other arts and crafts and attempts to use her abilities as gifts to others. She started her design and media company Envibrance Studios in 2002 as a teen, minored in art in college and wanted to find a way to create original art to share with others…



– She had always liked cute and feminine t-shirts, but often could not find any with messages she liked or with un-cluttered, pretty graphics that could be dressed up with cute layering and accessories or dressed down for casual occasions. (Of course we also offer T-shirts for guys too!:)



– When visiting her mother’s homeland of Haiti after the earthquake she was shocked at the standards of living there and wanted to give back in some way through product sales (a portion of Envibrance Dream Apparel sales will go towards charitable causes, including helping people in Haiti). She also saw some of her cousins in Haiti wearing second-hand brand-name t-shirts with scary images of skulls and decided to create positive t-shirts for youth to wear instead (this is an upcoming project of Envibrance Dream Creations, stay tuned).



– While working with youth as a motivational speaker, Julene often saw teens and tweens wearing shirts with negative messages. She began creating her own positive shirts to sell and wear at events, and to donate to special youth events and organizations (such as the shirts pictured above).



– There are so many t-shirts out there already but very few merge positive messages with bold, artistic graphics – there’s a first time for everything;)

I hope you’ll support the Envibrance movement by purchasing a T-shirt from my shop by clicking here. You can get one for yourself, or maybe a young person in your life.

Today I’m working on a wedding website for a client and reminiscing on one of my favorite old school N’Sync songs “This I Promise You” (which is one of the signature songs of the couple. True love is forever and beautiful:)

While searching for that video on Youtube I came across another one of my favorite songs from the ’90s – when some music was actually moving and had substance:)

You may not look the part, people may look and pass over you, and your past may “disqualify” you – but don’t count yourself out! God loves you, and loves to choose the least likely ones to do great works and make a difference! (Why do you think the “underdog” plot is so popular?:).

Despite what you’ve been through He’s tapped you into the game; play boldly knowing He wants you to win. – Julene

This summer I’ve made a pledge to myself to live more freely…

To be more calm, less hurried, more comfortable and less worried…

To share my heart and passions and engage with others more boldly…

To breathe more deeply and smile more widely….

To dance more (even if awkwardly-off beat) and sing more (even when others are cringing;)

Freer to let the uniqueness (and weirdness:) in me shine through…

To be more creative and even child-like in pursuing my art and work,
To allow messiness yet be patient enough to pursue striking excellence…

To dream bigger, deeper dreams that only God can fulfill…

Resting more and more in the fact that my identity is found in Him and not in opinions…

Won’t you pledge to yourself to be more freely you, to share yourself, love and encouragement more openly with those in your life?

Happy Independence Day!:)

Often we seek out crowds to influence but sometimes there could be one person placed directly in your path who you can impact through love; don’t miss those “ones” around you. The difference could be deeper, truer, longer lasting.

You never know how much influence you may have on one person with your words and actions…
