STORY TIME 😊 In 2019 I decided to invest in myself and work on those inner demons that held me back and made me feel stuck in life. After discovering the art of #ToyPhotography I always had this pipe dream of doing what I love for a living. I had no idea how I was gonna do it but the image of me walking away from my comfy 9-5 corporate job was the absolute dream. 

As grateful as I was to have a good job, I felt like I was dying a slow death there lol. I hated the fact that my time there was taking away from me creating and developing my craft. However, I spent over 2 hours driving to and from work and during my commute I would listen to lewishowes and the School of Greatness podcast. Hearing him interview THE most inspiring entrepreneurs, thought leaders, world class athletes, and artists, made me open to what was possible for myself. You see, a good amount of these wildly successful people were just like me at one point, in fact many of them were extremely worse off. It made me realize that “if they could do it, I can too.” 

In January I walked away from my 20 year career (just as I envisioned) and yesterday I got to hang with the man who helped me get there 💪🏼 Give Lewis’s podcast a listen, or grab his new book. I promise you it will change your life if you’re open to it. 

My hope is that this story inspires someone that feels like I felt in 2019, and that anything is possible if you have a vision and relentlessly work towards it.
