MY STORY

It is with a thankful heart that I welcome you to freesia.com, a project that has been cultivating for the past few years. I have known for some time that I want to be an entrepreneur, but it can be challenging to innovate or even reinvent the wheel. However, this website was brought to conception after a bold professor asked one of my classes to create a product that not only excited us, but made us feel alive.

Freesia is the answer I have been looking for. It allows me to empower young adult women who need confidence and community in every facet of their life while maintaining a modest budget. It also lets me pour my passions into a lifestyle that guides my young adult path to the future, and hopefully yours as well.

In 2016, I started college at The University of Georgia. My time here has not only brought to light my love for writing, but for the home and health as well. Over time, I have learned how to maintain a balanced lifestyle that not only makes me look good, but feel good too.

Freesia is a lifestyle blog for young adult women on a modest budget. In school, I have met so many incredible women who have made a life for themselves doing the things they love - health & wellness, physical activity, entrepreneurship and travel - all while being intentional.

This space serves to highlight the many women who inspire us and to achieve the lifestyle goals we have created for ourselves as a community.

Freesia is a simple flower that blooms in vibrant color and is originally from Kenya to South Africa. I chose this flower because it symbolizes joy and passion, inspiring us to be intentional with our time while living the lifestyle of our dreams. Let's live fully, but within our means. Let's get creative with and choose how we live each day. Let's be free to do what matters most to us in life.

WHAT WE BELIEVE...

We believe that simple is always better. We believe that getting started is the hardest part. Worrying about what is to comes is worse than actually getting down to business and accomplishing your goals. Roll up your sleeves and get ready to get your hands dirty. We believe that hard work is the best kind of work. Be proud of what you do.

We believe that life is full of choices, and even if you make the wrong ones, there is always something to learn. We believe that life can be enjoyed in moderation. Eat the ice cream, train for that marathon and embrace your personal style. We believe that there is beauty in every circumstance and situation.

We believe that if you are going to bet on anyone, you should bet on yourself. We believe that you should do what you love and encourage others to do the same. We believe that you should get comfortable with being uncomfortable.

Above all, we believe that love in all things is the greatest gift you can share with yourself and others. Embrace who you are and be joyfully and passionately free to do what matters most to you in life.
