but it was one of the hardest times of her life on top of experiencing all minors of culture shock, lead was diagnosed with leukemia. luckily, she got better and even started to 5, but the thought of home t a tab at hot. so she decided to move back. and today, she's the creative director and founder of a flash on and taylor and company in can you vermont or the side of moving to can now one of the things is to make a voice that she could, but it's like one of the scariest things to ever do because like you changing your life in time. of course, like you're planning to like i show, you know, i'm just a, my name is low channel. i am the founder and crew to bed extra function engine, company, acura, thing, design, intelligent walk. show a narrow b so much as a company that sounded primarily because i've just come back from the us. one of the services i wanted badly was like 2 bedrooms have this is and they didn't really

3:38 pm
needed to be able to get through that. because one of the things that if i look back is if i was maybe somewhere else, let's say that headphone mean can know what day we have been able to make, you know, go through the smoky and you know, come off of it. i think the latch and pools for coming back was essentially to bid on for me because even when i was going to my treatment, my mom was only able to come for like about 2 weeks to a month. so i'd gone through that spewed, know, type thing, and i need to have somebody that with me, one of the other motivations for coming back to can now was after being there for about like 6 years, you want to have deep connections. for example, i think as, as it comes to disconnection, a little bit different from the moment i'm sure, and i just started obviously if there were people who are able to mix up with the navy woods off of back nick the team as we walk through the people you by 5 minutes from and i look, you know, i, the people in that venue chain. so that's what nicholas was feeling. my advice to

3:41 pm
a lot of them. how do you really want to inspire them? oh wow. how and what is by them? oh my gosh. i feel like, you know, the way i would say is i leave my life right. i live my life in a way that i hope to god that it touches somebody and they're able to emulate not necessary to emulate exactly who i am. but i believe to find their true selves and i, i believe that's exactly what i kind of put out there with my own music is finding you to identity your true core. because i've seen using to, for the soul, you know, and i believe that, you know, finding you to self in to identity. that's the best place to get ever start. and from there, i mean, the sky is not the limit. yeah, i mean, but the entertainment industry can be tough, especially for women. how are you dealing with that? oh man i, i would definitely say that you know, for, for myself,
3:42 pm
i've been so lucky that i've had a beautiful team from the time i started. and yes, it is true that women go through so much in the industry. that is true, but i've been lucky enough that you know i've, i've been surrounded by people that actually really genuinely care about me. care about my wellness. and i would definitely suggest to any women out there who wants to get into the industry to have that for themselves as email uh to then to support each other. is that actually something that you see happening is it's so it's so important. and as we empower each other and helping each other with, you know, the most smallest, smallest thing is it's helping us should i say i will. uh, i was, this is with the own crowns. and in bracing it and you know, i feel like this to who it is so important. personally my, i've got a lot of sisters. so from that in itself i, i mean like that even with my,
3:43 pm
with my work with whoever i me like it's, it's, it's very important because we, we definitely have to tell each other how gorgeous and how much of queens we are. yeah. and then there's so many young women that mean who look up to you and who looked look at you as a role model. i mean, what advice would you want to keep them today? because some, most of them want to get into the entertainment industry as well. as i don't know how to do it to how easy it is or how hybrid all 1st the that's definitely hard. it's definitely hard, but i would definitely say to anybody out there and you don't girl want to step into this world. i think more than anything you need 1st, know what you want. you need to know what you want. you need to know who you are. and from there, i believe once again, like i said earlier, surrounding yourself with the, with, with the right people, you know,
