How did we get here?

Summer 2011:

I was walking out of Ogle Beauty School with thoughts of becoming an esthetician to compliment my love for makeup. I heard it loud and clear, “FAITHFUL BEAUTY.” At that moment, I just knew Faithful Beauty would be a luxury cosmetic line. The affirmational product names and marketing ideas were flowing in. I was eager to tell everyone about the dose of healing that would come with every product. However, by Fall 2012, it was clear that the message in the Foundation of Faithful Beauty was solid, however, makeup was not the source of delivery.

Over the years, I have gone through so many designs and methods. From cell phone cases to handmade jewelry, etc. In  2017, I realized that a lot of the designs I worked on would definitely play a major role in spreading the message. But before I could do that I had to start showing vulnerability; to put myself out there. YouTube was the easiest way to do this. I did YouTube videos on and off from December 2017 until I posted my last video in March 2020. (Comment below if you have ever seen one of my WCW: Support Edition videos or any video of mine).

Not too long after being in what I would call a creative flow, Summer 2018 to be exact, the biggest project I had to work on came swooshing in like the violent rains of a hurricane. ME! I NEEDED ME!! In all honesty, I was halfway confused by this. Halfway, because I know that healing is an ongoing journey………it just seemed that all of the healing work I did to feel confident in who I am was null and void. I began to wonder who the f*** was staring back at me in the mirror. I had already done years of mirror work with her, yet she is looking really unfamiliar. So I stopped looking at her for a while. I eventually realized that this level of healing required a level of DEPTH you could not prepare for.

Comment below and tell me what was that pivotal moment in your life when you realized the true DEPTH in healing. You never know who may feel normal after reading it.

The healing that is the most uncomfortable. The level of healing that pushes you into your Phoenix Rising process. I WAS BROKEN DOWN! Parts of me were surfacing that I had NEVER addressed. Even the unhealed energies I carried from those in my bloodline. So much surfaced with no way out in sight. Only a door of courage to walk through. I am pretty sure I was pushed through that door lol.

I am so grateful to be able to say that I love being on this side of the door now. I have built a home here.
