Candour: the quality of being open, straightforward and honest; frankness.
I pride myself on wearing my heart on my sleeve, not worrying about what anyone else thinks and just being me. With the exception of my Instagram (because I do love a little VSCO cam action) I live an unfiltered life. If I’m thinking something, I’ll say it (often without realising). And if I’m upset by something you’ll know about it; I’m sure my family can vouch for that one. What you see is what you get.
Of course there have been moments in my life when I’ve questioned who I am and what my purpose is on this earth. But even in those moments of chaotic confusion I’ve always been frank in admitting that I don’t know who I am or where I’m going. And I guess that’s how this little space came about. I was lost and I was confused but somewhere in the depth of that confusion I knew that I needed more. I needed a place to speak freely, to be creative and to share moments of my life that I want to capture in time.
I also want to spread a little a joy and positivity. I believe that love, like good karma, has a way of coming back to you. Like a boomerang if you will. I want to encourage you to let go, to embrace your inner free spirit and to live life by your own rules. If there’s one piece of advice I’ll be remembered for it’ll be telling my girlfriends:
“You do you, honey!”
And you betcha they do! Because at the end of the day if you’re true to yourself and you’re doing what you love everything is as it’s meant to be. Don’t worry about what everyone else is doing and definitely do not (I emphasise do not) compare your journey in life to anyone else, no matter how twisted, convoluted or round-about-y that road is. Pursue your dreams, don’t give up and don’t let anyone tell you that you aren’t enough and that you won’t succeed. Because you are you will! And you’ll do it your own way. You do you.

So welcome, welcome to my little creative space. I hope you enjoy the journey just as much as I do.
