Meet Uniqua Clemons: Herbalist, Sociologist, & Friend

We had the good fortune of connecting with Uniqua Clemons and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Uniqua, is your business focused on helping the community? If so, how?
“I’m not saying I’m gonna change the world, but I guarantee that I will spark the brain that will change the world.” ~Tupac Shakur. I often think of this quote. I would love for my business to leave an imprint on the world. I want every customer or person that comes in contact with Earth Bar to feel loved and know that we care about their physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. So in reference to the quote mentioned earlier, I would love for Earth Bar to be a place of love and light, where individuals can come to find peace and quality herbal products to better their health. Earth bar is also a place where other black entrepreneurs can gather, network, and support one another. The ultimate goal is to help the community stay healthy, support one another, and show there is power in coming together.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I am an herbalist that creates natural, organic herbal teas, capsules, and hair/skin care products. At Earth Bar we really care about our customers and community. I’m most proud of the recognition that our customers give to us after taking our products. Not only do they enjoy our products, but they enjoy is taking the time to get to know them. Health is not only physical, it’s mental and Spiritual. After talking to a customer we want them to hang up and say, “Wow he/she really cares about my well-being.” I have faced many challenges when I decided to open earth bar full-time. It hasn’t been easy but I will say I am grateful for these obstacles and challenges because they have strengthen me. I learned that you have to always think positive, encourage yourself, and pray! I want the world to know that I love each and everyone of them, God Bless you and if you have a dream turn that dream into a plan and take Action. You can do all things …stay encouraged!

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I would definitely check out the Savannah Rapids. It’s a place where I go to find peace and site see.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would love to dedicate my shoutout to my mother Sandra Willis and Son Bali Robinson.
