In a world where society labels and persuades a person to be something he or she is not, TL struggled with removing her own ""mask."" She had to wrestle with insecurities and learn what it truly meant to own every side of her identity. She now invests her time in helping others learn that they are enough. TL helps them become confident in who they are-and who they were designed to be-because she knows that when people remove their ""masks"" and start living true to their identity, incredible things happen."
