Connect What inspired your most recent tattoo?

It is the flower of life. Sacred geometry. I was raised as a Baptist Christian, and it traumatized me. I’ve been on my own (non)religious path for 5 years, and about a year in I got this tat to represent the journey of coming home to myself. Everything and everyone is connected as the flower represents. And each part of my journey had to happen the way it did for me to be where I am today. I’m now a life coach and I help others who also want to become who they were meant to be.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

My ink would say “Why be normal when you can be YOU?” Don’t be afraid of living out loud. Don’t worry about making others uncomfortable. Decorate yourself! You are worthy of being celebrated! Uniqueness is to be celebrated!

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would get myself and my 3 kids into a better home. We are all squished in an old and small house, and it would allow us to breathe if we could spread out. One of my sons is autistic and nonverbal, so being able to choose a safe neighborhood would mean the world to me.
