Closet Confessional Pt. 2 🤍

We talk a lot about Black excellence… but we don’t talk enough about the cost of always pushing for it.

As Black women in fashion, it feels like there’s always something—another challenge, another barrier, another expectation to outperform, overdeliver, and prove ourselves again and again. And while I’m proud of how hard we work, I’m learning that rest is just as powerful as the grind.

This season, I’m not choosing between working my butt off or slowing down—I’m choosing balance. I’m choosing to honor my ambition and my well-being.

Because burnout is not the price of excellence. And we deserve success that doesn’t come at the expense of ourselves.

Being a Black woman entrepreneur is power… until you decide you want something different.

Lately, I’ve been navigating a transition back into corporate—and it hasn’t been easy. Not because I lack experience, but because I have too much presence. Too much ownership. Too much proof that I can build something from nothing.

And if we’re being honest, some employers are intimidated by that.

Add in the recent DEI rollbacks, and it’s shifting the landscape in ways we can’t ignore. Spaces that once felt like they were opening up are slowly tightening again—and as Black women, we feel that shift first.

But here’s what I know: I don’t have to shrink to fit into any room. My experiences, my leadership, my voice—they’re assets, not liabilities.

So this transition isn’t about becoming smaller.
It’s about finding spaces that are ready for someone like me.

If you’re navigating this too, you’re not alone. 🤍

Consistency doesn’t always look like motion.
Sometimes it looks like pausing, resetting, and choosing to come back anyway.

I took time to transition into a new space… mentally and physically. And in that stillness, I realized—discipline isn’t about being motivated. It’s about showing up in whatever capacity you have.

Rest is not falling off.
Stillness is not failure.
It’s part of the process.

Welcome back to Closest Confessionals. 🖤

I wish more of us understood that someone else’s success is not a threat. Black women in fashion don’t need to compete—we need to coexist. Self-awareness is the real glow-up. We all shine brighter when hate isn’t in the room. ✨

Happy Black History Month! Let’s be authentic & transparent in our communication about each other. We are supported.

Sometimes the most responsible thing you can do on social media is not speak at all.

You don’t have to have an opinion on everything—especially on things you haven’t lived, studied, or taken the time to understand. It’s okay to listen, learn, observe, and sit with the information before jumping into a conversation.

Silence can be wisdom.
Learning can be louder than commentary.
