“She Burned, Then Rose”

They looked at her
with those knowing eyes,
as if time had wiped the slate,
as if moving on
meant forgetting.

But memory doesn’t vanish
it plants itself deep,
like thorns wrapped in roses,
blooming in silence
where no one sees.

She loved past the edges
with all her breath,
all her belief,
and when it shattered,
it didn’t just hurt
it hollowed.

They called it the past.
She calls it the forge.

Because pain didn’t end her
it remade her.
Every ache folded into motion,
every betrayal
a bellows fanning her fire.

She didn't rise in spite of it.
She rose because of it.

Not erased - reborn.
Not silenced - sharpened.
Now she walks with storm in her pulse,
vision in her scars,
and thunder in her heels.

She’s not healing to soothe
she’s healing to strike.

And no 
she never forgot.

She turned memory into fuel,
grief into glow,
and the girl they once broke
into the woman they’ll never outrun.

She is the fire they lit
but she chose where it burns.
Not just a comeback. A claiming.

Unwritten. Unshaken. Unstoppable...

From Grief to Glory: My Journey

Hello everyone! I wanted to share a little bit about my journey, as I recently did in an interview with Anish Ahuja on Imprint Live. It was wonderful to reflect on everything that has brought me to where I am today. 

My name carries a legacy, and my career path has been anything but linear - in the best way possible! I truly believe a lot of who I am comes from my incredible mother. Growing up in a family with an army background instilled a certain discipline, but life took a deeply personal turn when I was navigating the pageant world. 

My entry into pageantry was quite unexpected. There were definitely several hurdles to overcomebut the win was a pivotal moment. It opened up so many doors, leading me to my passions as an MC, host, and motivational speaker. I've always been quite confident and self-reliant, and I think that has served me well. 

My journey, from navigating personal loss to achieving professional milestones, has taught me so much about strength and determination. I hope by sharing a bit of my story, I can inspire others to pursue their passions and stay true to themselves, no matter what challenges they face. Thank you for being a part of this journey with me!
