My most recent tattoo was inspired by love and legacy. In the past two years, I became a proud Glamma to two beautiful granddaughters. In August 2024, I lost my beloved mum, who shared an unbreakable bond with my son. I already had a tattoo honoring him, so I chose to expand it—blending symbols of his children and my mum into one meaningful piece. It’s a tribute to generations of love, strength, and connection that keeps their spirits close to my heart.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?If my ink could speak, it would say: “I am legacy etched in skin—every line a memory, every shade a heartbeat. I carry your family’s love, your losses, your strength, and your growth. I remind you who you are, where you’ve been, and all the beauty still ahead. Keep going—use everything.”
What would you do with the $25,000?If I won $25,000, I would invest in my health and healing journey—finishing my tattoo sleeve to honor my family, funding personal wellness goals like fitness coaching or holistic retreats, and setting aside savings for my granddaughters’ futures. I’d also give back in a meaningful way, supporting a cause close to my heart that uplifts women or honors my late mum’s legacy. Every dollar would reflect purpose, love, and growth.
