Learn MoreMy most recent tattoo is the “Perfectamente imperfecta”, or Perfectly Imperfect, on my hands. It’s right where the world can see it. It’s an unapologetic declaration that I accept my flaws, my mess, my beauty, my pain. It’s self-ownership. It’s my power.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?We are her story etched in skin—her past, her pain, her pride, her becoming. She didn’t just survive, she made it art.
What would you do with the $25,000?I’d use it to create a stable future for my family —starting with paying down debt to ease the load and build credit toward homeownership. I’d invest in my kids’ future, giving them opportunities I didn’t have. With anything I’d have left, I’d start a side hustle—something that could grow into a source of income and pride. This wouldn’t just be a financial win—it would be a turning point and the foundation for a new chapter.
