I have been in launch mode for a few months now with Fashion Academy Inc.
It has been just one of those things, as usual, bigger than me.
From having the requests to teach a little over four months ago to actually having it all come together as well and smoothly as it has happened makes me realize, once again, that I am here to show up, pay close attention and do what feels right~ TRUST!
I have said a gadzillion times to anyone who will listen, "Follow your golden gut". Lillian Vernon said those words at The Learning Annex many years ago. It made quite an impression on me. I have followed that advice sometimes out of being Bold and sometimes out of complete Fear and not knowing what to do next.
It works either way.
So that is how it all happened.
I had a Top Designer Contest for tweens and teens back in November. Parents and their daughters came to me asking me to mentor, teach what I know about the industry and fashion design. From there, it was so easy writing the curriculum . I tweaked it as it went along and I am a fly by your pants kind of girl anyway..so it just worked. My team of incredibly talented women and men rallied and here we are in the midst of the first Workshop after selling out pretty quickly. I spoke at all of the local High Schools. I was a guest on The Wendy Williams Show, Channel 1, The Weekend Today Show, which helped tremendously. The Newark Star Ledger was very generous in doing a write up as well. I am very grateful for their support!!!
Just posted the next workshop for July 24 and 25th on my website as we had a waiting list! I had no idea that in this small town of 7500 people, we could bring people here for these workshops. Seats are still available. I love that people want to travel from Texas to Milltown New Jersey!

This is a fun ride....
