I’ve been profiled by Business Insider UK !!

As you can imagine, pursuing a career in Fashion Psychology has been no easy fete! I’ve had many an awkward conversation with people who thought I had thrown away thousands of pounds and one “useless” degree on a pipe dream.

One best-selling book. One published academic paper and countless brand deals later, I’m so proud to say I’ve worked super hard, kept the faith and made the seemingly impossible possible!

A massive thank you to Lola Christina Alao for the write-up.

Never let anyone place doubt on your dreams!
