Let it begin.
It all begins with an idea.
It. This journey of starting a business. Something I’ve dreamt of since before I started design school. But I didn’t want it to be just about Interior Design. I’ve actually never considered myself an Interior Designer and really only went to college for it because A. Fashion Design School wasn’t affordable for my self sufficient pay my own way mentality and B. Everyone said you can’t and won’t be taken seriously as a Designer if you don’t get a degree. So I made the most of it and took business and photography classes. I was a terrible student tho and rarely showed up and couldn’t stand some of my professors and the way they taught. There wasn’t a lot of substance. I wanted grit and realness not merely reading from the text book. I can do that on my own. But I finished and got the pretty paper to prove my worthiness as a Designer. Thats a tangent for another day. And yes there was a lot of great moments with other students, amazing teachers who to this day I admire and am grateful for. Nothing is wasted.
But I always knew I was a little “different” when it came to doing things, how I looked, how I thought and how I saw the world. It’s probably the aquarian in me as well as many other things. But I’m the kid(and now adult) who if you tell not to touch something cause its hot, will not only touch it but will do so with a smirk on her face. Don’t tell me what to do or deprive me of an important lesson.
I wanted this business to be about more than just the pretty things. On my journey up until this point,I had asked a lot of questions and found answers that I couldn’t unsee and became determined to make others aware. I realized how a lot of us are not living our truths, are being given a false narrative, are unfulfilled, over fed, under nourished, over stimulated, unvalidated and unseen.
And I wanted to change that. One person at a time.

The more I work with clients, the more I listen to podcasts, the more I chat with strangers, the more I KNOW…people need help! There is no life manual. There is no “right way” of doing this thing called life. But I do know that some are better at it than others. That surrounding yourself with the tools, resources and other like minded humans can make all the difference in figuring out the kind of life you want to live. Because after all it is a choice. A series of thousands of choices, every day. Little ones, big ones and they all deserve to be intentional, thoughtful and authentically you. What you consume with your eyes, ears and mouths all determine who you are and what you stand for. We can choose to look at life with awe and wonder and feel the gifts every day brings us. To stand in positivity and grace and kindness-for ourselves-and others. Or the opposite. It is in your control. When you can wake up to the power/strength that is yours you will never look at life the same way. When you stop waiting for permission to live your life, you will start to fully live. What a gift it is to yourself and to others. If you need help doing this then reach out. To me, to someone else in your life that can be a voice of wisdom that will encourage your own inner guidance to get on the right path. I believe we have what we need already inside of us, like the Wizard of Oz so beautifully states.
We just need to believe.
