Waiting on the hammer to fall
Eyes on me backed against a wall
All are judges quick to sentence
Toast the day I serve my penance
Seeking for your validation
Only to find a false salvation
Until I’m on my knees again
Begging to forgive my sin
I cannot live in fear of you
Searching for grounds to prosecute
As of now I won’t justify
Where and how I live my life
My worth is never up for trial
Forced to fight for its survival
It wavers not in wrong or right
Steadfast through the day and night
I will crush the stones you throw
Burn the sticks that break my bones
Self-righteous words, I rise above
I am enough
I am enough

This blog has taken on a life of its own. What started as a simple place to post fashion inspired photos has also become a place of self-reflection and mental health awareness. I discovered fashion as a tool in building self-confidence. I have learned that clothing choices have a strong impact on our psyche. Our emotional connection to what we wear will be reflected in how we see our place in life. I work everyday helping women learn to use fashion to feel more confident by finding styling options for every shape and size. While fashion has helped me to see a better version of myself, I believe it is also a gateway to being able to recognize your own self-worth and finding beauty in your struggle.
A Providence Girl has evolved into a mix of self-reflections, mental health advocacy, and as always....fashion. As I am finding my own kind of beautiful…I hope to inspire you to find yours.
