We’re getting a front-row seat to a story that’s equal parts inspiring, heart-wrenching, and downright dazzling. My guest, Teresa, went from climbing the corporate ladder in marketing to designing jaw-dropping jewelry for A-list celebrities—talk about a career plot twist!
But her journey wasn’t just about swapping spreadsheets for sapphires. Teresa opens up about the personal struggles that shaped her path, including the trauma she had to overcome and how she navigated sudden fame (spoiler: it wasn’t all glitz and glamour). We also dive deep into the messy, beautiful process of healing and resilience—because let’s be real, life has a way of breaking us before we shine.
And speaking of breaking and shining… we bring it all home with a powerful discussion about Kintsugi, the ancient Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold. If you've ever felt shattered by life, this metaphor will hit you right in the feels. Teresa and I explore how embracing our cracks, rather than hiding them, makes us even more valuable.
So, buckle up for a conversation filled with wisdom, creativity, and a whole lot of sparkle. ✨
