Sister Sky
Blazing a Trade Trail From One
Reservation to Another
by Bonnie Clark
At the head of the business wave
are Monica Simeon and Marina Turning Robe of Sister Sky. These real-life sisters manufacture and package all-natural personal care products
such as soaps, shampoos, conditioners, and lotions (to name a few).
These products are completely natural
and are made from recipes these
sisters cooked up themselves.
Imagine: a reviving body mist spray
scented with essential oils of tangerine and grapefruit or, better still, a
relaxing bath with sweetgrass scented
body wash. Sister Sky was created
to bring natural products to the people.
Monica and Marina grew up on the
Spokane Indian Reservation in Washington. Monica (38) has a bachelor’s degree in communications and
advertising, while Marina (39) is
pursuing a degree in marketing. Together they worked in the gaming industry learning skills from the ground
up. From this learning experience
they gained the confidence needed to
start up their own business.
