What started out as a personal image rebranding after surviving the cards life continued to deal, end up being transformed into a self development infrastructure.

More often than not, women, especially Black women, are left to figure everything out on our own. We are complimented for making hardship look easy, as though our ability to carry unbearable weight means we should continue carrying it. We wear our struggles like badges of honor because we were taught that surviving them is evidence of our strength. But survival leaves evidence too.

It can appear as fear of uncertainty, self-neglect, imposter syndrome and the belief that we must struggle before we deserve to receive. We shrink ourselves so other people will not feel intimidated. We decline opportunities because we do not feel qualified. We question rewards that arrived without enough grinding, hustling or suffering. Imagine how amazing life would be if we simply allowed ourselves to settle into just how amazing we are.

Endurance may help us survive adversity, but character determines what we build after it. And character (the standards we maintain, the habits we practice and the decisions we make) affects our health, wealth, relationships and lifestyle. Imagine how amazing life could become if we stopped trying to prove how much we could survive and instead, allow ourselves to discover how much we could receive, create and sustain.

Have so much audacity, that the room leans when you walk in.

Exude so much certainty that you see rejections as lessons.
