I finally did it! My first Blog post... How I got here!

I still cannot believe I am writing my first blog post! If I told you how many times I thought about starting a blog, and how many times I told myself I was crazy that I didn't know what I was thinking about, this post would never end. Luckily, I did! So if you want to know more, read on!

I've loved fashion since I can remember, I know it sounds "cliche" but it is true. It began as a little girl while watching my mom putting together her daily outfits, I can say she was my first fashion icon. Growing up, I knew I would have a career in the creative industry. I always geared more towards fashion, but at the age of 17, I moved to Miami on my own to study Interior Design. However, after nine years in the industry, I felt something was missing and realized my passion for fashion, beauty, and lifestyle was growing and that’s how Simply.Jash was born.

Let me tell you, it has not been an easy road, starting by overcoming the fears and judgments I’ve put on myself. Sometimes, unknowingly, we create our own walls and end up adding extra pressure on ourselves, being able to realize this is important in order to move forward. Having a full-time job, leaving me with small pockets of time to create continuous content has been a challenge, but this has made me realize this is something I love because I make sure I find a way to make the time to work on Simply.Jash each day.

So, my advice to you if you are thinking or already in the process of starting a new journey, is to stop overthinking and go after what you love. Don’t try to have something “perfect”, because nothing in life is and you will use that as an excuse to not begin (this was one of my biggest challenges). Make sure you surround yourself with friends or a community that supports you and what you believe in. My friends and family have been a big part in my journey, they helped by being “the push” I needed to start it all. Last, but not least, remember it will always be better to start late than never and to have to live with the regret of “what if.”

Much Love,

Jash
