You have to say YES! Nobody is going to make life happen for you. No one is coming to discover your brilliance. No one is coming to fix your problems. No one is coming to save you. But if those things are true.......then maybe no one is trying to stop you either. Maybe no one is holding you back. Nobody is standing in the way. Nobody is telling you what you can and can not do. So what then? What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail? What if having a good time and enjoying life really is the whole point? What would you do differently? It's never too late. It's your life. Start today! Even if it means starting over. My journey is the result of saying yes. Of leaning into what felt right even if I didn't know what was going to happen. And ya know what? It was better than anything I could have planned for! #kentuckygirl #sustainablefashion #upcycled #NYFW @artheartsfashion @loveforupcycling_official

Thanks to @jamescheeks and @jeffrayfilms for getting a bunch of footage of me being intense and obsessed with my mission 😆 Luckily my models were deeply amazing and wonderful and portrayed their outfits beautifully. I'm also very grateful to the #NMWA staff, to @refashionshow D.C., the the other talented designers, and to everyone who came to see the show! I was overwhelmed by how supportive the patrons in D.C. can be. I am always so well received in the city. It is wonderful to feel so seen and heard by folks who understand and accept my message immediately. THANK YOU D.C. !
