The hustle never ends—unless we choose joy first

The hustle never ends—unless we choose joy first.
As someone who loves to work, build, and create, I’ve realized I carried a story that the harder it felt, the bigger the reward would be.
.

.
But in this season, my body, mind, and nervous system are asking for something different.
.
.
So I’m closing the laptop, pausing the workweek, and trusting that what’s meant for me will always find me.
Who else is leaning into this energy in 2026? ✨

Here’s what my week actually looked like:
• 25+ outreach emails sent to potential sponsors for my show
• Zero responses (even after LinkedIn follow-ups)
• Rejections from grants I really wanted
• Moments of doubt, tears, and feeling stretched too thin
Building something from scratch is quieter than people think.
But I’m still here. Still building. Still showing up.

Who can relate ?

One of my favorite memories from India was watchin

One of my favorite memories from India was watching Bharatanatyam dancers prepare backstage. Every brush of makeup, piece of jewelry, and fold of fabric had meaning. ✨🇮🇳

It reminded me that dancers have always been part of the beauty story—preserving culture, inspiring confidence, and bringing tradition to life through art.

That's the heart of our documentary: exploring how beauty connects us to our heritage, our communities, and each other. 🌎💫

What a season it’s been 🌟 I just returned fro

What a season it’s been 🌟 I just returned from a bucket list beauty journey in Sedona where I combined a family adventure with a toddler while also filming my dream pilot for @atwbeauty “ The Global Beauty Journey”
.

So much came up - how to balance the road trip to Navajo Reservation during nap times with my son, to me learning how to trust the team I hired to capture every shot that can tell our beauty stories authentically and beautifully. I’ve been working on this pre-production for months ( maybe even years) planting the seeds to each talent, location all while working my corporate job, being a mama and showing up as all the roles the world demands of us as women. So my apologies to the friends I’ve had to leave texts on read or the gatherings I haven’t been able to make .. this dream seems so close I can feel it on my fingertips.
.
.
But something has happened to me while filming that I cannot share at this moment but I’ll be gently unfolding in the next weeks as we begin post- production.
.
.
I don’t believe in coincidences🌅 I also look for the signs to guide me. Something came through while I was deep in my journey and it was unexpected.
.
.
We are not behind in life we are on our own journey. Yours to define ONLY.

The Global Beauty Journey coming soon. For now check out our bio to join our IFUND women campaign and help us bring this story to life. Every donations helps.
