“I’m one of those people that never ask for help because I’m always the one doing the helping. I put my all into absolutely everything I do and I want to see everyone win. So when I feel like my passion and ambition is not being reciprocated. I get in the ‘I’ll do it myself’ mindset. Also as a black woman, I felt the need to have to always prove myself and be better than my counterparts. This survival mechanism has made me the woman that I am today and has allowed me to solely build Always Prai to be what it is today. However, now that I’m becoming more vulnerable I realize that I don’t have to over-compensate. I don’t have to exhaust myself to deserve what I’ve worked for. I am worthy! And I have to be open to allowing others to bring their creativity to the table. With all that being said, I know Always Prai will be what I envision it to be. But I can’t get there without your help. So I’m looking for like-minded individuals to join the team!” -@jamaicanchink_
