Go Where You’re Supported
i can’t recall my earlier designs— the pieces i beaded alongside my aunt… but i can recall some of my work from 2009. the crazy outlandish “dreamcatcher” earrings that were extremely unrealistic for everyday, but i rocked them. it never occurred to me (at that time), how i may have been perceived for my creations. in fact, when i think back to all of my fashion choices i’ve always been OK standing completely outside of the circle— i’m not in favor of any shape, in my mind you either see the vision or you don’t. the times that i’ve gone against my better judgement and tried to blend in, i suffered through so much discomfort—all’s forgiven now.
i’ve chipped away at this dream of being a jewelry designer for quite sometime, i am at present more than ever before, trusting the process. understanding fully that there’s enough for us all, and what is meant for me— well, it’s already mine! i am attune to the inner voice that’s been consistently speaking My Truth; the one that never lets me forget that my purpose is important and my impact is just as meaningful. i hope to only omit energy that will reach others and serve as a reminder—because we all need reassurance (from time-to-time); look within yourself, trust that incessant inner voice and lean onto your community for support.
in staying true to myself/dreams, i’ve cultivated a small community of individuals that support me and have followed J ALXNDRA’s journey from its inception (shoutout to Dez Azure). i am so fortunate and blessed, can’t thank you enough.
GO WHERE YOU ARE SUPPORTED. STAY WHERE YOU ARE LOVED.
