**Line of work / Job title(s) (paid or unpaid) :
Stylist and manager at CosmosGlamsquad Melrose (paid)
I’m originally from Nigeria but moved to LA from Florida (Orlando)
Yes. I appreciate everything, from waking up every morning to the fresh air, beautiful palm trees, and the mountains view. Also I do appreciate living in LA during this period, because I won’t imagine me being lockdown anywhere else. Lol. I really did use this time for myself.. especially through workout, meditation, stretches, reading, etc. but also understanding more of my meaning here on earth, and also what’s my next move/moves and how to accomplish that.
How has being in L.A. changed your life?In so many ways that I can’t put all in words.. but before coming to LA I saw life through one lens. Then coming to LA, my eyes really opened to various lens. That made me appreciate life even more, but also to stay focused on my goals/dreams, because I see how choices can determine your life and future. I also see both Right/Wrong Choices presented to me every day here in LA. And everyday I keep my focus on the Right Choices to achieve my goals for now and for the future.
Just like anyone moving to a new place without knowing anyone/job, it can be a bit difficult but possible to get through. That was me. Came here without knowing but believing with Faith. I came just like that, with my beliefs (Hardworking spirit) and Faith and my Faith was tested so many times. But my beliefs never changed..That’s how I got over my homelessness, lack of job. Etc.
Being in LA helps me achieve my dreams easier than other places because, here in LA, I can easily connect to artists like myself and opinions are a lot more here in becoming or finding your true self. Living in LA gives me the ability to wake up every morning and think I could create some thing new.
