the crown empire.
feel your way through the pages
"...and every page is a door, every frame, a painting,
every chapter, an invitation to sit upon the throne within.”
six
read with your heart
this is not how
your story ends;
welcome home,
how may i serve you?
there is beauty
in the grey area
self-love | healing | hope
a reflective journey
puzzle pieces in the form of art,
where all roads lead back to you.
i wish you better days
'Six' is a library of books, which act as a reflection of the quiet, undeniable strength in vulnerability. The shelves are carefully curated with works that echo these themes, drawing you into stories that explore the human spirit in all its raw, messy brilliance. page-by-page, this is a place for anyone searching for meaning, for love, for themselves, and for the courage to find the beauty in it all. In the crown novels, I created fictional worlds and safe spaces within the story, which allowed the main character in the books, which is you, to have the space to slow down, build a relationship with themselves, and ultimately heal. Through going on this intimate, mythical and reflective journey, the main character (you), is able to truly see themselves as royalty. ‘monochrome’, my memoir, is more an illustration of a part of my journey, a story of hope, nostalgia and legacy, painting the picture of balance and harmony within the grey areas of life. ‘slow’ my latest work, a sunday journal, and a safe space brought out of the grey mythical world experienced in ‘crown’, and into your home, your life, your real world. It’s a place without pressure or demands, you can use it as you please, you can take your time with it, it’s slow.
And so, ‘crown’ is the map showing you the parts of yourself you must meet, my memoir, ‘monochrome’, the blueprint, guiding you from experience, soul and intentional reflection, to a life which embodies the beautiful and regal space, which comes from living in a state of healing and bloom, and my latest work, ‘slow - the sunday journal’, the pace of healing, finding peace in the wisdom that we are both temporary and eternal.
"...and there is a kind of freedom in the now, where nothing is missing and everything is felt. that's where you find yourself again, not in the future, not in the fixing. right here. whole."
