Mother, ThreadConnection Founder   photo_by Shamayim I'm passionate about so many different things that I think I can confuse people sometimes. Whatever I have an interest in, I go for it. I'm passionate about writing, teaching, modeling, dancing, painting, and connecting with people and learning their stories. That is what is led me to create ThreadConnection in the first place. I'm passionate about creating and embracing opportunities. There's no limit to what you can do, and that excites me. If you add hippie vibes, androgyny, 80's high-waisted jeans, and black into a pot, you have my style. When I go out at night I'm much more femininely dressed than I would be on a normal day. I love a good...

Model, Business Owner   Ahh I have so many passions.. but to name a few: modeling, my skincare line SkinBUTTR, and just being the best person that I can be for myself and everyone I encounter.   My clothes have taken me literally everywhere. My clothes have survived so many moves, from home to college to New York. I still find things from high school (6 years ago). My goal is to be a successful business person, to be mentally, financially and spiritually worry free.  One of my proudest moments has to be 2 years ago when I dropped everything and moved to New York. I'm super proud because I left a life that I was semi-comfortable with and threw myself...

Model, College Graduate, Body Image Advocate     My proudest moment is graduating from college! College was not easy for me, and I went to school in Austin,TX where I didn't know anyone (I'm from Minnesota). I was really proud of myself for spending 4 years on my own meeting new people and working hard! I tear up even thinking about it, college was a lot of HARD WORK. I would recommend going to college out of state to everyone. I feel that what connects us as women is our complexity! We are all so different, but we connect through our united internal strength and ability to overcome all obstacles. The message would I want to send to other women is that...

Tiffany Model, Former Basketball Player, Entrepreneur    My passions are fashion, health and wellness. Because I'm extremely versatile, my wardrobe takes me from Tomboy to Sophisticated. My main goal is to make an impact. I really want to make my mark by providing knowledge. I would say my proudest moment would be when I walked in NYFW for Maria Ke Fisherman and was spotted in Vogue Italy. The most powerful thing about being a woman is creation. People would not exist if it weren't for women. We are the most important creature on earth. Also, women have so much strength, knowledge and power, I'm extremely excited to see more and more women recognized every day. There is a dress that I bought last minute...

Elizabeth Mother, Healthcare Employee   I have a passion for planning and organizing. I love to plan parties and I swear I was the most spectacular event planner in my past life…lol. My clothes have taken me through different stages of my life. From childhood to motherhood, wife to single woman starting anew. I have been through a lot of ups and downs in my life so my only goal right now is to be at my happiest, be at total peace with myself and silence any insecurities I might have. My proudest moment began on July 30, 1992 at 12:26 a.m. That was the moment I became a mother. It was the moment I instantaneously became selfless making the...
