The pair of hoop earrings that turned me into a Wowmom
Emme's story
Do you know the power that a pair of hoop earrings may have?
And no, I'm not talking about magic. I'm talking about the transformative power and the empowering effect a good pair of earrings may have on us. If you want to know why I firmly believe in it, I should share my story and how a pair of hoop earrings transformed me into a WowMom to face a challenging moment. They offered me the opportunity to found a business and discover my purpose in life.
All these thanks to a pair of earrings that belonged to my Abuela Olga.
My life before discovering my Abuela Olga's hoop earrings
I had them forgotten in the closet. I don't even know for how long because, in addition to the earrings, there was something else that I had lost: my inner power and that spark that made me want to undertake new projects. I had forgotten myself.
In 2013 I was a mom to a preschooler and a toddler, both of whom required my full attention. I was a Hispanic immigrant woman who had been away from the corporate world for more than two years, and although I knew that I had all the skills to be successful as a mother and businesswoman, I couldn't find a way to start.
Every afternoon, around 5pm, the same feeling invaded me. I felt like the walls of my house were closing, transforming my home into a prison and stealing the joy every mother should live by. I was full of negative feelings, resentments, and complaints that did not let me enjoy my present, much less envisioning a future.
I urgently needed to change my course, but my vision was blurry.
I needed a pair of earrings.
How a good pair of hoop earrings help empower yourself
I'm not talking about magical jewelry, but to the transformation a good pair of hoop earrings can generate in us by making us feel beautiful and joyful. The first step is to empower ourselves to be true WowMoms.
The day I found my Abuela Olga's hoop earrings marks a before and after in my life. It was the beginning of a personal transformation and the day emme also began to take shape. Emme, my jewelry brand, is more than a business: it is a life project.
The walls of my house were now expanding.
My Abuela Olga's pair of beautiful green earrings became the beginning of a new me. A new world opened up when I discovered that a simple but purposeful accessory could:
- Make me feel good about myself and recognize that self-love is first
- Increase my self-esteem.
- Transform me into a joyful mom and a happy companion.
- Spark the flame of empowerment and give me the energy I needed to take action and undertake new projects.
- Want me to bring other women the desire to discover their potential to be joyful.
- Start a business.
From the day I discovered that pair of earrings until today, a lot has happened. There has been a lot of self-discovery work. I've created a brand, and I feel more joyful in my role as a mother.
That same empowering flame was the spark that created Emme jewelry.
