Someone once told me that being a hairstylist 'wasn't good enough.' I decided to prove them wrong.

I used to be afraid to be myself, terrified of being judged because I was different.

I didn't want to play the corporate game or move in packs with the drones.

I didn't want to have a mediocre life, living paycheck to paycheck, working for the weekends.

I wanted more. I wanted purpose. I wanted meaning.
