“The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.”

Pablo Picasso

One of my greatest joys in life is gifting. Gifting requires more intentionality than we give it credit for. When done right, it requires the giver to step out of themselves and step into the life of the receiver for just a brief moment. Gifting represents love, it screams I see you, I want to celebrate you, I thought of you, you matter, you are important to me, I am proud of you, I value you, I appreciate you, I honor you, and so much more.

Gifting has always been an important part of my life, and my life’s journey has led me to Boxed by Dami. Curating for all of life’s moments brings me so much joy and fills me with purpose. That purpose is to help bring the joy and intention of giving into the lives of others.

Over 12 years ago, I started a stationery and gifting company which has taught me the art of creating beautiful and well-packaged goods. I always knew that journey would lead me to walk in my purpose… So here I am.

Thank you so much for coming on this journey with me and I am excited to start having lots of “giftversations” on our blog, A Gifted Life!

I am also excited to share that we donate a portion of every sale to two causes that are near and dear to my heart. The Ruby Ball Foundation and Donor’s Choose. As a former teacher and sickle cell advocate, I have made it a priority to support, volunteer and donate to both causes for the last 12 years. To learn more about our giving through the years and these two amazing foundations, please check out this post.
