Closing another chapter at ASU with my hand and nails that match my summer shade🤍🪷 #fyp #indigenous #summer #college #az

At the Beginning of 2026 I made a commitment to myself. 2026 was going to be the year that I enter into my first body building show. I was inspired by my friend @xinyiwellness who really inspired me and encouraged me to take this journey. We both started out prep at the same time but we would be in different shows. She really is my inspiration but also one of my closest friends throughout this whole process. @missy.ifbbpro was my coach and going into this I was looking for someone who would make me feel comfortable and safe around. So finding a a coach that was a woman was so important to me, and I’m very grateful and honored for Missy to be my coach and support through this journey. Truly without them both I don’t think I would be where I am today. They kept me on my toes, helped me stay locked in, and made sure that I was staying on top of everything. I want to give a HUGE thank you to both of them💗 well as for my friends and family, I want to thank all of you!! I kept this secret to myself only because I didn’t trust or want to put this out into the world as this would be my own experience that I wanted to keep to myself. To everyone, especially my family, Ayó’aniin’shní🤍 Shijéí bitłʼáádę́ę́ʼ tsʼídí yéigo ahéheeʼ (Thank you from the bottom of my heart in Navajo)🥹🫂💗 When I say my family was THERE FOR ME!! I want to thank them for everything!!! They really really supported me through this whole journey and they were all so excited for me when I told them. Asking for help was something that I was nervous about because I didn’t want to take this journey on my own, but my family was willing and more than happy to help me and support me. Their love and support was always there and something I always felt. Entering in my first body building show was not just about the end result, it was about the investing in myself, investing in my health, my mindset, my heart, my energy, my spirit, my wellbeing, etc. this process has truly changed my mindset and me as a person. The discipline, discovery, accountability, intentionality, consistency, etc!! So, I say thank you and Ayó’aniin’shní to those who have supported me💗#in

So blessed and so happy that I was able to finish this piece!! My professor loved it and it’s a personal piece, I’ve been locked away in my studio and for good reason. Finally able to share this project but also I have more that I’m working on and hope to share with you all soon!! Ahe’ee and Ayó’aniin’shní 💗☺️#indigenous #fyp #navajo #jewelry #silversmith

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐯 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰? @zandersss.thomas . I’ve been ten toes deep into project runway with Law!?!!!!! Bring back heavy critique, but in the way that you take it and run with it because you can truly build off of it!! People think Law is being too harsh or mean but the reality bb is that you put two horns on some breasts with fake turquoise with chrome fabric that did not shape the body well and could have been made within 30 minutes. BB, if you’re gonna be horny, BE HORNY!!! Critique is everything to me, if it’s harsh, well okay!! How am I going to use that to better myself and my work!! You can only get better when you receive critique with an open mind and are willing to change/improve yourself. Because that’s what is it!! BB I wish Law could read me to filth, he’s an icon, a legend and THEE Image Architect! Who wouldn’t want a critique from Law!! . 📸: @taylremedia

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 “𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠”? 🌟 @zandersss.thomas “I’ve seen people break boundaries and push indigenous peoples into new spaces and it really is about the confidence that I see with the people who truly inspire me like @quannah.rose , @phillipbread , @heather.strongarm , @nanabahgrace , @margaretfaliano , @ange.l.ee , @ambermidthunder , @collintruhale , @jojojaxn , @the.pbread , etc!! Them all being in their element rebirthed this awakening. I’ve always wanted to model but I knew that if I wanted to pursue something like this, I would have to put myself out there, build my own portfolio, and show people who I am and the art I make. Seeing my friends in these spaces inspired me to try and not to give up on my dreams just because of some hate or people who didn’t believe in me. They really did reawaken something in me and look at me now. I’m not just a model but the next gen of designers and modeling is just a step into that space that I want to be in.” . 📸: @taylremedia Creative direction: @the.pbread

Keep an eye out for me native country, me and my friends are going to be in these spaces next and we’re going to change the game💖 I have no words truly for everything that I’m feeling but it’s really only the beginning🥹🫂🫶🏽 #fyp #indigenous #fashion #fashionweek #nyc #navajo #influencer #blog #inyfw #foryoupage #photographer #model

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐮𝐭𝐚𝐢 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐮𝐥? @zandersss.thomas : Personally, I love the glamor of HOS but it truly is my mother who makes me feel beautiful every time I wear my HOS pieces. The amount of love and time that I can feel that were put into them is what really makes me feel beautiful. I can hear and feel peshawns love even when she’s not there. With her pieces it’s a hug from her, I like to think about it that way. . 📸: @taylremedia Creative direction: @the.pbread Styling: @the.pbread @zandersss.thomas .

What will you bring to the Home of Sutai? - @zandersss.thomas : Cunt, face, body, and confidence. That’s really what it is, the presence of my creative energy that speak for me. As a creative or as a designer I am able to tell the story of HOS with being just WHO I am. As a two-Spirit, Gay, Queer, Navajo, my existence and my creativeness is powerful. . 💅🏼 🔥Shop Zanders’ sickening look on our website /shop ✨ . 📸: @taylremedia Sutai Superstar: @zandersss.thomas Creative direction: @the.pbread
