Rhoda's Why
As a teen, I was exposed to women leaders in my community who were refined and committed to helping others. This inspired me to seek image consulting to feel and look confident and to empower others with the techniques and information I learned to elevate their professional presence also.
My career path led me to Southern California for the specialized education and unique experiences in the fashion and beauty industries to develop my creativity in color, design and image consulting.
My approach to elevating style integrates art, nature, beauty, fashion, and wellness practices to provide tools for sustainable transformation from the inside out. Botanical skincare, mineral makeup, statement gemstone jewelry, color analysis are the tangible instruments that I have created to give my clients the ability to experience the “art of beauty” for a refined and authentic self expression.
Many of the women I have had the privilege to elevate with these tools have been emotional in how the personal brand strategies have impacted their life. They have offered testimonials of how it helped them obtain their dream job, increase their revenue, and share their Ted Talk with grace because they felt empowered.
This video features our Limited Edition Collection behind-the-scenes journey. I am so proud of this collection! It is exactly what our customers have been asking for and truly reflects our values as a brand.
