Ever had an urge to approach life or do something in a non-traditional way? Like you could feel the results would be interesting - if not great - but you just didn't move on it?

 

I don't believe that was just a random thought. I believe it was your inner radar whispering that there’s another way to do life. Your way.

​

For me, that whisper showed up over and over again. But as a creative woman navigating a world rooted in tradition and expectations, I often ignored it. I followed the script. I did what made sense, played the roles, and performed the parts. The whisper only got louder. And I paid dearly for not listening - accumulating unnecessary hyphens as a subsequent result.

​

It took time (and some hard lessons), but I finally realized this: when you lean into your individuality, own your story, and stop forcing yourself into molds that don’t fit, you unlock your Self. You avoid unnecessary titles and hyphens. You stop performing and start living. You get clear. You get calm. You discover who you are.

​

Today, I boldly use the totality of my experiences, all my hyphens, creativity, and just a lil’ bit of flair to navigate life. I dive into the things that interest me, build what I dream, and share what I’ve learned along the way. I’m living boldly between my hyphens and showing others that they can, too.

​

I am a multi-hyphenate, creatively winging it!

The audacity of me!?

I'm Dianna.
