The REAL Interior ...💫
✨
✨
FIRST Project:
✨
In my working life, my first project was to know and understand that only I am in charge of my career and how I want to see it map out.
✨
And when I stand firm in that clarity, then projects that are truly meant for me flow effortlessly in my direction.
✨
It’s knowing the timing and magic of my own life that’s become my REAL lifetime project and ensuring that I’m always in tune and tapped in to my own destiny...💫
With Love & Pride,

The REAL Interior...💫
✨
✨
FIRST Project:
✨
Actually my first ‘project’ before setting off into the sunset with my bright, shinning career was working on myself!
✨
Once in my life I found myself in a really tricky situation in my personal life - that had it worked out, would’ve resulted in an entirely different ending to my story.
✨
For the longest time in my early 20’s I thought that my dream life needed to be defined by the dream relationship I was in.
✨
Luckily for me, life flipped that fantasy right out of my reality, forcing me to do some REAL inner work to figure out what my calling and purpose in life truly was. ✨
And only in defining my own path with no one else responsible for it but myself, did I truly understand that my REAL first project in life started when I worked on me.
With Love & Pride,
#keepingitreal

The REAL Interior...💫
✨
✨
FIRST Project: ✨
Coming up this Friday is my very REAL Talk on how I got my first break when I eventually branched out on my own.
✨
There were enough people who didn’t think I was ‘ready’ and put a lot of doubt in my head. And here’s what I’ve learnt in my 20 something years in business, ‘ready is overrated’ !!!!
✨
But this doesn’t mean that things have always worked out, and boy have I learnt my lessons.
✨
Good thing I’m older and wiser now, and can share a tip or two on how to take that final plunge!
✨
It’s Business Unusual after all, so gather your note books and pens cause you’re not going to want to miss this...💫

And I know for a fact there are many careers inside of me still to explore. ✨ So I use my life to express myself in the most creative way that fits my mood. Sometimes I’m designing my own clothing collection, other times I’m wearing my jewelry designer hat and on very rare occasions I even feel I can be the best dessert maker this side of the equator. ✨ All of these are parts of me, but where I always gravitate back towards is my interior space and connecting with beautiful designs that warm my soul... 👩🏽‍🎨 With Love & Pride, #keepingitreal . . . . . . . . . . . . #my #story #research #dream #job #love #hotel #designer #luxury #lifestyle #mentor #art #fabrics #furniture #accessories #throwback #online #ebook #stayhome #therealinterior #story #nthabitaukobong #book #interiordesign #architecture #bibliophile #read #literature #booksofinstagram #lionesslegacy @nthabi_taukobong ✨ eBOOK AVAILABLE ONLINE: ✨ www.nthabitaukobong.com @amazon {Link in BIO}$

Instagram post 2308123790519689107_1222271472 $The REAL Interior...💫 ✨ ✨ Research what you LOVE: ✨ Must be the fact that we’re ALL at home thinking about our future and relooking our lives and careers till now. ✨ Because I’ve received (definitely more than usual) tons of DMs, emails and messenger notifications from people asking me how can they get into this field of design. ✨ Most have reached a point where a second or third career path is needed and others are students wanting to make their own right choices. ✨ How did I choose what I wanted to do..? I traced back all of my passions and first loves and lined up a career that most suited what I was drawn to. ✨ Of course there were many times I questioned my decisions, and had to go back to the drawing board and tweak as well as improve on a few things. ✨ But at most, I choose where I’m most happiest and go with that. ✨ If there’s something I’m interested in I’m relentless with my pursuit of further knowledge on that particular subject, be it a car that I like, a place I want to visit or a course I want to study. I am known to spend months with my single minded focus, researching the hell out of it till I’m satisfied and can make an informed decision on how I want to move forward with it. ✨ Guess what, this ‘free time’ is really working out for me, because there are a few courses I need to research as I choose my next point of interest as the insatiable creative that I am...💫 ✨ Join me this Friday as I share one of many stories of how I ended up living my creative dream... 👩🏽‍🎨 With Love & Pride, #keepingitreal . . . . . . . . . . . . #research #dream #job #love #hotel #designer #luxury #lifestyle #suitelife #installation #art #fabrics #furniture #accessories #throwback #online #ebook #stayhome #therealinterior #story #nthabitaukobong #book #interiordesign #architecture #bibliophile #read #literature #booksofinstagram #lionesslegacy @nthabi_taukobong ✨ eBOOK AVAILABLE ONLINE: ✨ www.nthabitaukobong.com @amazon {Link in BIO}$
