For long now, I have felt the tug on my heart to at some point in my life, be able to show up as my true self. Withholding nothing! To be able to show up in honesty + truth, not hiding who I really am by keeping my work identity separate from who I am amongst my family and friends. I’ve always wanted to be the same person, regardless of where I was, either at home or at work. To be able to share my opinions without fear of judgment. This is why I started Mààlú Tallow Co., it allows me the opportunity to merge all my identities. I’m graced with the freedom to be able to show up as I couldn’t when working in the corporate world.

• I am a lover of Christ (He truly has become my magnificent obsession), a wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend…The Bible is the very foundation on which I’m building my life, including this shop. Hence, you will notice that every product here is created to bear the meaning of its name, connecting to, and referencing the Bible with each blend. It is therefore my prayer that this resonates with you, each product blesses you and that you experience the full weight of the intention behind each product.

• I am a Nigerian Canadian from the tribe of the Yorubas. My business name, Mààlú Tallow Co., was chosen to pay homage to my roots. Pronounced maah-loo, it means cow in my mother tongue. Here, on my shop, you’ll see me write and reference my language, with interpretations, of course.

• I have adopted a lifestyle that fully embraces the nourishing traditions of my heritage as I realize that my ancestors lived long, healthy, and vibrant lives. Through these life shifts, delicious, gelatinous, and richly flavoured bone broths and healthy animal fats have become a part of my diet. Since I couldn’t find such products on the market, my hubs and I started a food company, Natritional Wellness Co., to bring you such nourishing whole foods. Hence, the Beef Tallow used here is produced in small batches and hand-rendered by our team at Natritional, using my forefathers' slow and traditional techniques. Please come find us here if you are in the market for such foods.

• I am a Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) who just so happens to stumble into the world of entrepreneurship. I absolutely love accounting and until recently, couldn’t think of any other profession for me. The spark of interest in the real and natural food movement, wellness, and slow and holistic living caused me to wander off into the wild. I've since become a Holistic Nutritionist, Community Herbalist and Botanical Perfumer.
• I like to think of myself as a life-longer learner who is decided on exploring every God-given gift and passion.

• From crunching numbers in my thriving accounting firm to crafting nourishing delights in my food company, and now, curating treasures in this very shop – my cup overflows.

• I grew up in a home of 4 girls, including my mum, my dad being the only male. Ironically, as a grown adult, I am now the only girl in my home. I’m blessed with the best husband, who patiently bears with me as we navigate these busy seasons, and we so far have 2 boys who are the CEO and CFO of our ministry.
