Tired of depending entirely on a job for your future.
I decided the cycle
would end with me.
I grew up without much stability, being picked up, dropped off, and never knowing what home would look like. After losing the aunt who felt most like a mother to me at twelve, I learned to survive by becoming tough.
By nineteen, I was on my own. I pushed through hairdressing school, qualified early, and worked hard enough to pay my way. But constantly carrying everything came at a cost: burnout and the realization that I didn't want to spend my life simply getting by.
So I made myself a promise: the instability, the moving, and the hand-to-mouth living would end with me.
Now I'm building toward a different kind of life, slow mornings, a ranch, horses in the field, time to read, and the freedom to give back to my family, animals, and people who know what it feels like to have no safety net.
I'm 32, and I still don't have everything figured out. But I am willing to keep choosing a different direction. This isn't just a business. It's me writing a story that finally feels like mine.
You don't have to be an expert.
You just have to be willing to start.
