Embracing every step of the way in my healing life journey through wearing, feeling these deities, that is my artifacts, has been a safe path to return when needing empowerment in who I came to become.
My path as a lifestyle brand creator and an interior designer has been full of curious discoveries and experiences and I want to share them with you.
With Love & respect,
Alexandra
