Legacy over Likes: What .weaver just taught us about business alignment šŸ“ššŸ’¼

We watched Uncle Nearest founder Fawn Weaver announce she’s stepping back from social media to focus on writing her next book. When a follower asked for immediate transparency on the platform, her response was pure gold: Social media is for short-form content. The deep details belong in the book.

As builders of culture, art, and community, this is a massive lesson in business management.

When you are protecting a legacy—especially one rooted in our history and blessed by our elders—you cannot let an algorithm dictate how your story is told.
Here are 3 business takeaways from her move:

1ļøāƒ£ Protect Your Narrative: Don’t condense a million-dollar legacy into a 60-second character limit.
2ļøāƒ£ Value Deep Work: True growth requires logging off the noise to build things that last.
3ļøāƒ£ Honor the Process: The crowd wants instant answers, but the blueprint requires patience.

At Project S.M.I.L.E., we always say: Brush. Floss. Grow. 🌿 That growth isn’t just physical—it’s mental, cultural, and structural. Sometimes you have to step away from the timeline to write the history books.

The Oakland Archives: Episode 5. From the steady precision of pen on rock to the total liberation of paint on canvas—this is the evolution of the Paint 2 Flow N Grow Inside Out Experienceā„¢. Whether the medium is solid or fluid, the goal remains the same: returning to the source. The journey of the participant is the true work of art.

The Oakland Archives: Episode 4. Painting on rock offers a unique lesson in permanence. Unlike the canvas, which captures the immediate flow, the rock captures the steady commitment of the hand. It’s a practice of patience. In every Paint 2 Flow N Grow Inside Out Experienceā„¢, we balance this steady hand with our fluid creativity.

The Oakland Archives: Episode 3. Using acrylic pens on rock changes the energy of the room. It’s no longer about the broad splash of a canvas; it’s about the deliberate mark of a pen. This discipline creates a different kind of focus—one that we still utilize to sharpen our clarity in the Paint 2 Flow N Grow Inside Out Experienceā„¢.

The Oakland Archives: Episode 2. We began with the solid—rock as a medium to ground the spirit. When you focus on a surface as firm as stone, it forces you to be intentional with every line. This precision was the early foundation for what we now call the Paint 2 Flow N Grow Inside Out Experienceā„¢. Solid ground, liquid truth.

Perspective: Oakland Archive, Episode 1

Perspective is everything. šŸ’œ In Oakland, we turned stones into mirrors—manifesting how we see the world and how we choose to show up in it.

Every word we painted was a piece of our truth. What is your perspective today? šŸ•ŠļøāœØ

These photos are from a 2018 school visit at Myers Childcare Center in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, where my mother, Mrs. Willie Ruth, cofounder of Project S.M.I.L.E., and I read ā€œI Like Myselfā€ to a kindergarten class.

This moment is about more than a book reading.

It’s about teaching children to see themselves with love, pride, and confidence—to like who they are, how they feel, and the story they carry inside.

Project S.M.I.L.E. has always been rooted in honoring Black beauty, Black joy, and Black family legacy.

33 years later, that same energy continues to live in the way we love, the way we teach, and the way we show up for our people.

33 years of Project S.M.I.L.E. — still honoring Prince’s legacy through family, love, and legacy.

Prince Lives On – A Project S.M.I.L.E. Series Episode 4

April 2019, Minneapolis.

After a Project S.M.I.L.E. expressive art therapy activity called Paint 2 Flow N’ Grow Inside Outā„¢ – A paint‑pouring art experience, the young artists carry their masterpieces out of the Moxy like trophies of the heart.

In this moment, Mikaela, an actress, model, dancer, and singer, stands with Kayden and Monica, waiting for their Uber to the historic Pour House in Minneapolis, where Mikaela is set to perform onstage that night.

Prince walks with them in the art, the courage, and the quiet pride of young people stepping into their own stages. šŸ’œ

His yes when asked if he wanted to be part of the moment said it all: Prince lives in the way young people show up, fully, in whatever space they walk into. šŸ’œ
