What inspired your most recent tattoo?

What inspired my most recent tattoo is all of my traumatic experiences I went through.. surviving thinking I was no longer going to be here anymore and surviving through all the losses of my babies I could of had here I have one my baby’s ashes with me till this day. Everything I over came has became an inspiration for what my lioness tattoo represents. Strength and Growth!

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

If my ink could speak it would say to keep moving forward and to keep fighting because no matter what life throws at you and knocks you down you just get back up and put yourself back together because no matter how hard it may get you will always find a way through

What would you do with the $25,000?

What I would do with the 25,000 is take care of my bills and stock up on a lot of groceries for me and my 3 kids, I would buy them the clothes and shoes they need. I would also put back in a savings to let it grow for financial stability for my kids.
