Her Interview
Ten minutes with Candace
01What do you attribute your success to?
I attribute my success to never giving up and evolving with the times while staying true to who I am. I have my own point of view and don't just follow the new thing. I always want to have my own point of view and stay true to myself as a human.
02What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
Follow your gut, your inner voice, your vision. Keep evolving and never give up. Stay true to yourself. It will take a lot of hard work. Be true to yourself, and never give up. You have to stay up with what's happening. And you have to stand out, you have to have a vision and create a style of your own so you're memorable.
03What are the biggest challenges or opportunities in your field right now?
The state of the world, to start with. The state of the world, and what's going on everywhere, and, also AI entering in.
04What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?
Honesty, being kind, showing gratitude, family first, friends, respect for others, giving love, spreading peace, and being a good support. Family and friends are always number one. Studying shamanism taught me how to be a healer and help people heal.
