01What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
To give yourself grace and always be open to learning who you are. What you create will show you where you're supposed to be. Even when things seem undesirable, there's always a lesson. There's no failure really, every single thing that's happening in your life is happening for you and not to you. It's just whether it's going to be instant or a little delayed.
