“24 years ago as I held my newborn son in my lap, I was told by the doctors to take a good look at his face.. because I would never be able to see him as a grown man.”

“I had a disease called Retinitis Pigmentosa, something I was born with, and that it was going to take all of my eyesight.”

I HAVE A CALLING…⁣ ⁣ 1️⃣A calling is not a job, it is your purpose.⁣ 2️⃣A calling is not just daily bread, it gives your life daily meaning.⁣ 3️⃣A calling is not your action…it is your reaction to circumstances. ⁣ ⁣ My job is modeling but my calling is connecting with people and challenging them to be more, do more, and expect more from themselves.⁣ ⁣ My calling is to boldly find my way in the dark so others can see the light within the darkness of their circumstances. ⁣ ⁣ My calling is to be empowered with value, purpose, authenticity and a smile, so others can see what courage looks like. ⁣ ⁣ My calling is to demonstrate how beautiful confidence is when I step into my strength as I am and true to who I am. Doing it with love, style, strong in faith and without excuse.⁣ ⁣ 𝗪𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠?⁣ 𝗪𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐚𝐠 𝐚 𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐞𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠. ⁣ 👠⁣ 👠⁣ 👠⁣ #nothingbutpixies ⁣⁣ #classicwoman⁣ ⁣⁣#modelover50⁣⁣⁣ #classicmodels ⁣⁣⁣ #commercialprint⁣⁣ ⁣ #retinitispigmentosa⁣ #fightingblindness⁣ #unleashyougreatness⁣⁣⁣ #empoweredwomen⁣ #elegance⁣⁣⁣ #fabulous⁣⁣⁣ #fabulousoverfifty⁣⁣⁣ #printmodel⁣ ⁣⁣#beboldbeyou⁣⁣⁣ #agelessstyle⁣⁣⁣ #agelessbeauty⁣ ⁣⁣#over50__style⁣⁣⁣ #commercialmodeling⁣ ⁣⁣#findyourvoice⁣ ⁣⁣#overcomingobstacles⁣ #classicmodel⁣⁣#rsgcommunity⁣ #womenover50⁣⁣⁣ #dallasmodelgroup⁣ ⁣⁣#shorthair ⁣⁣#styleover50⁣⁣⁣ #shorthairlove⁣⁣⁣ #theuncommonwoman⁣ #womeninspiringwomen⁣⁣⁣ #5amgirlsquad
