Luxury fashion, dream locations and glamorous events - this is what you see on Instagram. But what’s the real story behind it?
When you scroll through my Instagram, you see beautiful locations and luxury items. Does she have a rich boyfriend? Is her family wealthy? These are the questions that often come to mind for people who don’t know me. But what’s the truth?
Let me introduce my family. It’s just me, my mom, and my stepdad - quite small and definitely not rich. Or at least, never as wealthy as we are today. When I arrived in the Czech Republic as a 6-year-old girl, my mom had only $200 in her pocket. I always dreamed of beautiful, fancy things - things I never imagined could ever be mine.
After school (which definitely wasn’t my favorite way to spend my days, haha), I realized I could never have a boss - because I AM THE BOSS. And that’s where my long journey to becoming the woman I am today began. Older, wiser, and with more expensive handbags than before lol.
This story is long and I could write the whole book, so if you’re interested in my entire journey, I might surprise you with new content where you can get to know me better and receive advice from the hard lessons I’ve learned along the way.
I’ve definitely been through a lot, especially in the last two years, where I swapped my high heels for rubber shoes and took on the role of managing Dominican workers. Trust me, it was not easy. As my good friend once said, ,’After what you’ve been through, any other job will seem boring to you.’, hahaha. Maybe he’s right, but this will be the fascinating part of my new chapter.
I’ve sacrificed fashion weeks, beautiful events, theaters, museums, and meetings with friends, but I will never regret it. It’s part of the process, and now I am stronger, wiser, and more aware of who I am and where my boundaries lie.
It was a long journey and I lowered my standards to the minimum, but it was enough. Now, it’s time to get back on track, stronger, better, and shining like never before! Let’s see what this new chapter brings to me…
