As I sit here in my South Tottenham studio, surrounded by my latest creations, feeling sweet sweet fulfilment, it's hard to believe that just 9 months ago I was stuck in a job that made me feel trapped and a shell of myself. I knew I needed a change, but it wasn't until I mustered the courage to quit that I truly felt liberated.
Starting my second brand has been a rollercoaster ride, filled with both challenges and triumphs. There were times when I questioned if I had made the right decision, but seeing my vision come to life and the positive impact it has had on my community has made it all worth it.
I now have the freedom to express myself creatively, collaborate with like-minded individuals and give back to the world in a meaningful way. Of course, being a start-up has its ebbs and flows, but I've learned to embrace the journey and appreciate the small wins along the way.
If you're feeling stuck in a job that no longer serves you, I encourage you to take that leap of faith and pursue your passions. It won't be easy, but the rewards of living a fulfilled life are immeasurable.
The photo on this blog was taken on the day I finally quit my job, although I was standing in my studio- FREE- I felt such a mix of emotions, all of a sudden I had to figure it all out overnight. When this photo was taken, I had no idea that it was going to be the best decision I had made!
