If you had told 18-year-old me where I’d be today, I probably wouldn’t have believed you.
On October 8, 2016, my world flipped in an instant. An ATV accident left me with broken ribs, a shattered collarbone, fluid in my lungs, and a fractured skull. I was life-flighted, underwent brain surgery, and faced a traumatic brain injury that stole away all the little things most people never think twice about. Walking, talking, remembering, even holding a fork — I had to learn it all over again. I spent my 18th birthday in a hospital bed surrounded not by friends or parties, but by therapists teaching me how to reclaim my life piece by piece.
But that year of healing became the foundation of everything that came next. I learned what grit really is. I learned what it means to fight for yourself. And most of all, I learned how strong the human heart can be when it decides to keep going.
By November 2017, I was strong enough to pursue something meaningful to me, so I became a certified nursing assistant. For five years, I cared for people who needed a helping hand — and during Covid, I stepped into the hospital to do whatever I could. Nursing taught me compassion on a whole new level, and I carried that with me into every part of my life.
Then, in June 2020, something unexpected happened: I walked into a kids boutique for a job and walked out with a brand-new passion. Fashion lit me up in a way I didn’t expect. I loved watching someone’s confidence change just by putting on something that made them feel beautiful.
So I worked three jobs, saved every dollar I could, and slowly built the dream that was forming in my heart. That dream became this boutique — a place created with intention, purpose, and so much love.
My goal isn’t just to sell clothes. It’s to remind you that you’re already beautiful. That comfort matters. That confidence is something you deserve. And that no matter what life throws your way — even the things that break you open — you can rise, rebuild, and become someone stronger than before.
Thank you for being here. Truly. I hope you feel the heart behind every piece, and I hope this space encourages you the same way it helped rebuild me. 💛
