Q&A
Q1: How are you creative in your career?
Christen: “I am creative in my career because I can use my love for style and my fashion expertise to transform my client’s lives. I not only educate them on their proper size and body shape but I curate personalized capsule wardrobes that best represent who they are.”
Q2: What’s your favorite project?
Christen: “My favorite project I’ve ever worked on was as a stylist assistant for the host of a reality T.V. Show called “Ready to Love”. Nephew Tommy was fun to work with and allowed me to work closely with a male as styling men was where my career initially started.”
Q3: If you had to give 1 piece of advice to other creatives looking to start a career in your field, what would you say?
Christen: “I would say to trust the process as success for you may look different than the next stylist. But that is okay because there is no such thing as a straight path in this industry. Aside from trusting the process, it is important to be open to whatever path God puts you on as it may not look the way you thought it would.”
Q4: Do you have a highlighted project you’d like to share or something you’ve created recently that you are proud of?
Christen: “I recently started The Style Evolution Workshop Series which consists of 4 different workshop topics that educate and introduce the attendees to different style perspectives. These workshops have helped to shift the attendees mindsets when it comes to what style is and how it can look for them. I’m currently gearing up for part 3 and I can’t wait to share more as it all unfolds.”
Key Takeaways
- Embrace Your Unique Path and Trust the Process: Christen emphasizes the importance of trusting that your journey, even if it differs from others, is valid. Success doesn’t follow a straight path, so being open to unexpected directions and growth opportunities is essential for both personal and professional development.
- Align Your Inner Self with Your Outer Expression: Christen’s work shows how understanding your personal style can help you present yourself confidently and authentically. Aligning who you are internally with how you show up externally can boost self-assurance and help you feel more empowered in all areas of life.
- Educate Yourself and Others to Empower Transformation: Whether in style or another field, continual learning and teaching can create lasting, positive change. Christen’s workshops provide valuable insights for clients, helping them see style from new perspectives. Applying this mindset of education and empowerment can inspire both personal growth and meaningful contributions to others.
