Here's an Update! :)

Heyyy! Happy 2024!

A lot has happened since the last time I posted, so let’s get into it….

It’s a NEW YEAR and I’m ready for a fresh start! There is something about this year that makes me feel like this is the year for me to flourish in my purpose. I have felt lost creatively over the past couple of years, probably since I started college. In the process of figuring out what I wanted to do, I questioned myself a lot and put fear ahead of faith. After not feeling inspired by fashion or writing for a while, I assumed I wasn't interested in it anymore. When I stopped, I felt blank without any direction and didn't know what to do. It was such a therapeutic and creative outlet for me, so once I stopped, I felt uninspired. While I knew I was good at styling and giving creative advice, I didn't feel as connected to it as I did back then. However, this year felt different, I wanted to find out if my love was still there. 

(For a little background: I used to help my mom with her online consignment store The Velvet Rack, and I worked as a Marketing and Branding Styling assistant, where I handled social media, wardrobe styling, and photoshoot operations. ) This past weekend, I styled my friend Keyara for her business photoshoot. In an instant, I got inspired when she suggested that I become a creative director, which I had never considered doing before. Recently, I've been thinking about rebranding myself and producing more high-quality content. So here I am, better than ever, finding my way back to what I love! The point is, it's okay to fall out of love with your passions and find something else, or even if you want to try to find your way back to them if that’s an option for you. In the past, I used to beat myself up for not knowing what I wanted to do in life, but now I try to be open-minded rather than running away from new ideas. Whatever interests me at the time, I will pursue it without doubting my decisions because what I have learned is that there are times when you enjoy something one minute but not the next. In other words, whatever I want to do, I'll do it because it makes me happy regardless of whether anybody understands it. Plan and execute your purpose! 

See you next week!
