Broken but not Destroyed; The BlackBeauty615 Story

ICONIQUE MAGAZINE FEATURE – BlackBeauty615, A Nashville TN Professional Model shares her story triumph going from marriage to divorce, to raising three beautiful children to staying relevant in the Fashion Model industry

For a while, I was down on my luck with no clear path, along with dealing with being a single mom and navigating my way through life while creating my plans along the way. I had 3 beautiful baby girls that were counting on me to guide them in the right direction. Now, don’t get me wrong, I was already established in the healthcare field as being a Radiology Technologist with 3 companies that I was running on my own, but when life throws you tomatoes, you just have to grab the salt and hopefully it’ll be ripe along the way.  

Through this journey, I have met a lot of individuals that I believe God placed in my corner to increase my self-confidence, make me aware of individuals who are not of the spirit and to continuously teach me to stay humble in every aspect of my life, my career, and as a mother. There was a point in my life where I felt that I didn’t matter, I wasn’t worthy of rewards or recognition, not good enough for the prestige groups of the entertainment industry or even modeling industry for that matter.

But I knew that I had a pure heart, and didn’t understand why I was going through so much, but remained humbled in every aspect. Until one day, I found myself in June 2023 at 4:22 am in the bathroom of MTA. I looked in the mirror and said, “You are beautiful, You are strong, and you are worthy!” This was the beginning of me actually finding myself after being emotionally drained of being told, “no,” in every aspect of either career (healthcare or modeling), divorce, being alone and crying because I felt that I was done, and by the way, for 3 years, I didn’t even know who I was.

Most people said to me, “How did you not know who you were,” Didn’t you look in the mirror?” I said, “Even though I looked in the mirror to get dressed, brush my hair and teeth, I was still not looking at me or who I was after my divorce!” I understand that most women have identity issues after a divorce, and that’s what I experienced… Trying To Find Me, While Not Being Mrs. Gibson anymore. 

At the time, as a wife and mother, I was mainly focused on caring for my children, my household, and learning this new way of life of being “single.”  But on this day, I became STRONG! God showed me, at 4:22 am, that I was his child and nothing and no one was going to keep what he had for me! When I finally woke, I triumphed in so many different avenues including being emotionally physically, emotionally, psychologically, socially, and mentally aware…of me.

From this day forward, I found me loving myself more and not allowing any negativity to enter into my life whether it’s a family member, friend, or otherwise. I have increased my awareness and increased my availability, not only to myself, but to the spiritual realm of God and my children.  

I have become more confident as an entrepreneur and model. I have dominated the modeling industry by becoming a New York Fashion Week Model (which was my dream for many years), an inspiration, confidant, and role model to other women and men who are breaking into this industry, and finally becoming a life coach to teach others to be confident within themselves first before actually becoming a model, entrepreneur and/or entertainer.  I openly tell you, know who you are and everything else will be abundantly yours.
