“Being someone with a

feminine energy, it’s a given

that you’ll be mocked for

whatever you strive to do.

But I’m a hustler. I don’t

come from a privileged

background and I’ve always

had to stay strong to make

things happen for me.

Chasing my dreams is the

only thing that keeps me

going. Of course, there are

days when I’m like, ‘F*ck

it’, but then I find the drive

to start again, because I

know it’s worth it. It’s my

coping mechanism to fight

the odds and find my place

in the world!”
