  • from fashion to wellness, my creative journey

    welcome to pensive.podcast.


    In this episode I talk about my creative journey, living in Japan and why I created pensive. I went from blogging about my personal style to running a fashion magazine, and quickly learning that I had taken on way more responsibility than I had bargained for. Through some rough patches and a lot of major learning curves, I ended up exactly where I needed to be.
