Born to Be Bold Collection Inspiration
I was very blessed to get acquainted to the idea of healing, in my 30s. At that time, I was healing in closet because where I came from, counselling, or mental health is such a taboo. I might bring shame to my family. We were to live it and never show it. I could slowly feel stronger during that season, but instead of accepting myself, I was healing to better meet others’ expectations of me. So, part of my designs were very censored, depending on whether I got validation and approval from the people I was pleasing that time. The collections were very tamed and easy to blend in.
In my 40s, I got lucky and finally got a chance to heal deep… I was too broken after my 3rd miscarriage to continue to be strong. I was in a hermit state of existence and I focused on receive healing so that I can be present for my children. Here, I received many profound knowledge about my existence, purpose, self-love and self-acceptance. This was the first time I feel brave to accept myself.
The Born to Be Bold Collection represents the burst of euphoria I experienced when I first found myself. I found rekindled hope and felt reborn. I felt free and brave to celebrate my existence… a kind of selfishness, that’s so precious because I had never put myself first. I wanted to reclaim my birthright… born to be bold... be free... to love and be loved… I began taking responsibilities of my life, my decisions, and enjoying the joy and state of nirvana in each of my transformational growth experience.
This collection is all about breaking free, going with the flow and embracing ourselves and listening to our heart space, our true voice.
I feel very excited because I am finally showing you the designs from my mind that the Universe has so lovingly sent me ever so often, yet, surprisingly. This time, I have chosen to be brave and let the designs flow as they should have been before. Born to Be Bold is a compilation of emotions I felt in Book 1: Why Heal? as shared in Our Courage to Heal Podcast. It’s for this exact reason, I feel compelled to share my healing journey with the world though sharing my story and artistic expressions, so that more of us can feel brave to receive healing and experience the reborn.
Thank you for dropping in today for our Born to Be Bold Collection story. I am very blessed to welcome you and thank you for having us in your mind space today.
May all beings feel the love and guiding intelligence of this supportive, nurturing Universe, though loving grace.
