Fear of tattoo discrimination as an australian founder
How to be a professional in business when your soul is a free spirit
How to be a professional in business when your soul is a free spirit
Do i have regrets about my tattoo NOOOOO
But when i was in the ladies bathroom and a little girls said wow i love your tattoo, yes i felt nervous! When i was half way done with my tattoo and i realised "shit whats my nonna and nonno going to say!" I may of retreated a tad in those moments!
Now as a business owner who is trying to be taken seriously who is no longer operating a tour company but instead trying to be seen as a tech innovator who has built the next Wikipedia for founders and an editing platform in Canva called CULO that solves the problem of founders having too many raw clips and no idea how to shape them for online marketing.
I'm like ohhhh i need to be seen as serious.
I don't regret it, i just don't want to be discriminated against because of it, so here is how i remain a professional in business while maintaining my authentic self...
I have faith, deep faith in the lord that this tattoo is actual apart of my story and my testimony of overcoming trauma!
Here's the story behind my tattoo so you can be brave, have faith and be yourself while living as an entrepreneur without shame...
My tattoo symbolises my personalities!
Fun fact but i actually lived with multiple personalities D.I.D prior to healing, growing, accepting and forgiving and now with God on my side I am truely healed and unstoppable!
My personalities led me to write a novel about a girl with D.I.D called Where's Robyn and it's coming sooooon!!!!!
So if your worried about tattoo discrimination, wear your story proudly and don't be afraid of where you have been as where you are going is going to be even more faith filled and inspiring!!
Thanks for reading my story, connect with me professionally on Linkedin, publish your story in the village and edit your content with CULO Creatives in Canva!
I can't promise i will be a representation of what professional looks like but am proud of myself for all i have achieved in a very young 30 years!
