Fashion Entrepeneur

Not being born into wealth and being the only Black person or one of only a few people of color on a team, or even in a company as a whole, can set one apart in a corporate environment, she shares. This is especially true in the world of fashion. “Along the way, I realized that my differences are exactly what make my presence important,” she continues, “and embracing them instead of shrinking behind them has been a huge part of the success I’ve found in this space. It is a feeling of accomplishment to work alongside the amazing team at Louis Vuitton, where I have always felt valued and celebrated for being exactly who I am.” @devanlynnewallace

Leap of Faith

Taking the ‘cliff jump’ to act on my idea for Harlem’s Fashion Row (HFR), as a fashion outsider. We can often sit on an idea, but actually acting on it changes everything. I would not be where I am today if I hadn’t taken that leap of faith. @BrandiceDanie

Advice from a Horoscope

It’s a mystery why friends and family question how you’ve handled a financial or business matter. Perhaps they think you lack the skills to pull off a good deal or maybe they simply want to protect you but you can tell them that’s not needed.

Every Accomplishment

Celebrate Every Accomplishment

“At my fittest, I feel unstoppable. You think, ‘There’s no way I can get through 30 reps.’ But then you do, and you remind yourself that you can do anything you set your mind to. Those little victories should always be celebrated. That’s what contributes joy and happiness and power and strength to your life.”

Cherish What You Have

“Where I am now is better than I could have dreamed of. My relationship with myself is something I value deeply, even if things don’t always go the way I expected. For instance, my mom got married at 25, so I always thought I was going to be married at 25. That didn’t happen. But I’m in such an amazing, healthy relationship, so it doesn’t matter. What I’ve discovered is that we all have these ideas — and if they don’t happen, then there’s a reason why. Learning that has been extremely helpful to my growth. I’m very grateful every day for where I am in this moment of my life.”
