Hey beautiful people! My name is Camelia Katoozian and I am humbled to say that I am the founder of HerIndependence Blogs. In this blog, I take my experiences of dealing with depression, self-consciousness, feeling lost, and pretty much anything us girls go through, where I then implement them into this blog, to help reach out to everyone struggling through issues like mine. My blogs revolve mostly around independence given the fact that I am a “pro-independent” person who believes the importance of being able to succeed as a lone woman. I also hope my blog is a place people can come to seek new ideas and advice on how to a create a life they love.

I also write blogs on how to have beautiful & healthy hair. I want my blog to be a place where people can come and take my life advice into their perspective and have beautiful hair while doing so! 

|ABOUT ME|

Let’s start off with a little background on me. I am a 19 year old girl who is passionate about blogging her ideas regarding life, style/beauty, and hair. I dealt with depression and anxiety for awhile and people don’t realize that about me because I always seemed happy to them, but happiness is one of the greatest masks of depression. My depression came greatly from my lack of love for myself and also from my lack of direction in life which made me feel lost and unworthy to do or become anything in life. My anxiety came from my insecurities and self-consciousness to the point that it consumed my life entirely. My low-self esteem controlled how I perceived my life, how I acted, and defined what I thought of myself. There are many other challenges I have faced in my life, but you’re going to find that out in my blogs!    

Thankfully, with the great help of God, my family and close friends, I have become the person I am today, taking those challenges, learning from them, and showing the world how to exceed in life with encouragement, love, and motivation despite the many difficulties that come in our ways. I hope my experiences become a strong voice for both women and men.

|CHANGE|

I looked at my life and didn’t like where I was. So what did I do about it? I changed it. I make it sound easy but after continuously feeling crappy about myself, I had to get off my bed from constantly eating and sleeping which was one of the hardest habits to change.

|HAPPINESS| 

After changing my habits, I experienced happiness. Sometimes all life needs is small changes here and there until you start seeing the big changes happen.

|MOTIVATION|

I have had my fair share in feeling discouraged and lost more than you think, but motivating myself everyday takes courage and strength. Due to this, I share my tips and tricks on staying motivated even when everything around you seems to look like it’s falling apart.

|INDEPENDENCE|

If you haven’t already figured it out, I am very passionate about independence and the ability for a woman to be powerful without anyone alongside her. I have been failed multiple times by people in the long run which is why I now choose to be the lone wolf in this story, and I like it that way.

|HAIR|

I’ve recently realized that I have the voice to influence people regarding hair. I didn’t realize people cared about hair until I started blogging a couple times about it. I then receieved so many emails of people asking me how I grew my hair so fast or how I maintain my hair’s health.My hair is a part of my identity and I wanna share that with you. Through my blogs, I want to help you get long & beautiful hair.

I haven’t given my entire life’s story, but I’m sure you’ll find out all my secrets through my blogs posts.
