The Woman Who Inspired This Pencil Drawing
And now a little bit about this incredible human that I had the honor to draw - she was the winner of my Sketch giveaway last November. For those of you that know Loretta, you will agree with me that she has the warmest and kindest smile. She just beams with enthusiasm for life.
But hers wasn't always an easy path.
Loretta grew up with many siblings, cousins and a lot of family around. Yet her life took a painful turn when she lost her mom at the tender age of 11. At such a young age, Loretta had to find ways to survive the pain. As survivors often do, she coped in ways that led her to lose parts of herself by focusing on making others happy. Looking back at her life now, Loretta realizes that it is essential to allow oneself to experience and even honor the feelings that loss and pain bring, and on the other hand also allow oneself to find happiness.
Life continued on, and one of Loretta's greatest joys was becoming a mom to two boys. Now grown men, she values the supportive love that they give to her, just as she did for them when they were children.
But questions remained, "Why don't I feel like I have it all together now?" "What do I like?" Loretta set out to prioritize feeling good and decided that she also wanted to help others in midlife to feel the same way. Authentically sharing her journey in her blog, www.lorettasayer.com/blog and on her IG page, instagram.com/introspective.adventurer , she leads her readers on a path of discovery.
The enthusiasm for growing, learning and being adventurous, all in a real way, makes reading her words like a good book that is hard to put down.
As she herself says, "My goal is to be authentic, raw, honest and vulnerable while exploring what it is that makes us who we are." It is in her exploration, that her story is emerging.
