The Woman of Power

How I Grew and Became Empowering

What is up my invincible Kings and Queens out there! I always thought why me why do I have to go through this. As an entrepreneur I always thought it was tough to start a business or two. All my life I had to deal with challenges and lack of confidence. Now I have changed all of that and have tapped into ALL of my talents. This journey like anyone else's did not come easy but I kept pushing through and continue to allow my relationship with God flourish through and shine bright like a diamond. I now own many businesses and although they are not fully popping and not monetizing I know that one day this will all change.

So you ask what are these businesses and talents that I speak of? Well, one is actually tapping into my fashion sense. I have always loved to dress up or put together a look. My style of dress is inspired by the late "Princess of R&B" Aaliyah. See I am a tomboy who can also be girly and do not like dresses or skirts but jeans and a nice top and some sneakers and make it fashion. I also discovered my obsession with FashionNova and just had to create a line inspired by the two. I thought to myself why not create something that I am passionate about that others can relate to.

My next business venture is modeling, I actually was a little model in the making and started off with this first. I faced many bumps in the road as I started out. I faced rejection and recognition, I have amazing coaches who have taught me some amazing things that have made me who I am today. I have gained so much confidence in myself as a curvy model and continue to grow and conquer. I have a mother agent to start off with and cannot wait to blow up and be a top model in the industry. I will talk about this more in a later blog. I will continue to keep you informed about the amazing accomplishments I have made so far.

I have also tapped into being a self-love coach and be there and support others. I know that I am not alone with what challenges I have to face and love to help and serve others in creating a loving environment where they can be open and honest with me. I cannot wait to become a certified life coach! I would love to continue to empower others to love themselves and be unapologetically themselves as long as it is not damaging but to grow in the best way possible. I will discuss this more in a later blog as well.

What I plan to tap more into is my vocal abilities and my songwriting abilities. Not many people know that I am a singer and a songwriter. I have had these talents since I was a little girl. I have been writing songs since I was in middle school and now I am a college graduate so you do the math :) I am proud of what I have accomplished so far and cannot wait to continue to grow and glow and be the best me I can be. I am ready to tap into all of my talents and continue to flourish and nourish myself to greatness.

All in all it is not easy to wear these many hats but somebody's got to do it, it might as well be me right? It is all still a work in progress and will probably continue to be because there is always room to grow and develop. I have had this inner peace with myself to always be open to learning new things that will benefit me in the end. I cannot wait to continue to share my amazing journey with you all! As I conclude I say this stay strong my invincible warriors!
