โAfter taking maternity leave, I discovered how tough Postpartum was after my second child was born. Then COVID happened and yes, we all got diagnosed with it and I truly believed my career was over. God truly showed me where I needed to be, which is where Iโm at today.โฃ

Postpartum affects your mind, and overall body, and adding covid on top of that?โฃ
โฃ
My world was falling apart.โฃ
โฃ
I thought I would never be able to recover from this and continue to pursue my passion.โฃ
โฃ
At the end of the day, I remembered who I was and who I had to keep fighting for, and that was for my family, and me.โฃ
โฃ
Despite these negative circumstances, I pushed and believed in myself.โฃ
โฃ
I always knew deep inside how much I loved making people feel โbeautifulโ inside.โฃ
โฃ
But most importantly, empowering women and helping them see themselvesโฃ
as the true beauty queens that they were created to be.โฃ
โฃ
When I first started as a make-up artist, I had no support from my peers.โฃ
โฃ
I had to go through mistakes to learn from them, marketing, make up techniques, scheduling, running a business all while being a mother of 2.โฃ
โฃ
Make-up is ART, and practice makes perfect.โฃ
โฃ
I spent countless hours practicing putting make-up on just to be sure that I applied the right technique.โฃ
โฃ
One thing I learned on this journey is to never feel scared to ask for help.โฃ
โฃ
It's ok to feel like the world is coming down on you, I have been there.โฃ
โฃ
But if you ask for help, trust me you'll be amazed at the number of people that care for you and will be willing to help you.โฃ
โฃ
Being self-employed is certainly not a walk in the park but a walk in the woodsโฆdark woods.โฃ
โฃ
But wherever there is hope and perseverance, there is light. And Light brings all its wonders for one to admire.โฃ
โฃ
Giving up should never be an option, following your heartโs desire will quite often help you find your rainbow.โฃ
โฃ
I have certainly found MY rainbowโฆwill you?โโฃ
