I had to SLOW way down before I could find my way again and find the path I was always meant to be on... For as long as I can remember, I've thrived under chaos. That's what's pushed me to make bold decisions and how I built a business I'm proud to call my own. But a few years ago, I experienced a significant shift in my personal life—the kind of shift that wakes you up. It made me realize I didn't like who I'd become and the chaos I was dragging along with me. I got so tired of living my life in the fast lane that I began to crave more stability— more quiet, more truth. What started as a jolt (or perhaps an existential crisis) led me on the most incredible (difficult) journey to date. I realized that I'd been running from myself. Afraid to look at who I was— afraid to stop and listen to my own voice. I felt split between who I wanted to be and who I was expected to be. Those expectations often overshadowed the person I knew I could become. But lately, it feels like the artist in me is finally starting to catch up to the person I am now. And the split I've felt for so long is finally becoming one. It’s like I had to SLOW way down before I could find my way again and find the path I was always meant to be on. Sometimes it feels like I'm 17 again, full of hopes and dreams— just with more wrinkles and wisdom. Although the truth is, for a long time, I felt lost— like I was playing pretend, chasing things I didn't even realize I was chasing. So when I say it feels like I'm 17 again, it's because suddenly I feel like I'm stepping into the person I was always supposed to be before life and responsibilities took me on a hell of a ride.
