Why up since four?
Do you ever get crazy ideas and cannot sleep? Do you wake up thinking of all the tasks you need to get done? It took me four FULL weeks of non-stop brain farting to come up with a business name, conjuring up all sorts of ideas in the middle of the night. Until one early morning, I stepped out of bed while it was still dark outside and my husband asked "Why are you up so early?" I replied, "Ugh, I don't know, I've been up since four"

BEFORE YOU
SHARE YOUR STORy...
Let me tell you mine
In 2010, I had my first child who taught me a plethoric amount about being a human. I put my career and passions aside to raise him, had another baby, got a divorce, moved home quickly and started an entirely different career as a Visual Merchandising Director. Fast forward to 2017, got remarried, quit my job, had two more babies, and finally decided in 2023, it's time to pick that camera back up and actually use my degree...to a certain degree!
