Enter For FreeMy most recent tattoo is an owl on my shoulder, a symbol of wisdom. After everything I’ve lived through—chaos, survival, motherhood, and now becoming a nurse—wisdom is what’s carried me. The owl reminds me that I’ve seen darkness, but I rise every time, smarter, stronger, and more focused on my future.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?Life is beautiful, even when it’s messy. Life is art, even when it’s raw. My ink would say: I’ve been through hell, but I wear it like wings. I’m still standing, still loving, still learning. Every line tells a story of strength, survival, and self-expression.
What would you do with the $25,000?I’d spoil my kids—the ones who’ve walked every step of this wild journey with me. I’d give them a little luxury, a little fun, and show them that hard times don’t last forever. I’d also invest in our future, so they know their mom fought hard and came out on top.
