We had the good fortune of connecting with Cassidy Dansberry and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Cassidy, how do you think about risk?
Risk-taking has played a huge role in developing my life journey and career, as it’s been about betting on myself with an unshakeable mindset. In life, you have to push through at all costs. No matter how over the top your idea might be to others or yourself! I traveled abroad in college to obtain a world view of fashion, culture, business, style, and aesthetics; I did so because I knew that if I wanted my future businesses and life’s endeavors to be different from what I’d seen, I’d need to experience a new position and learning curve asap. I encourage every young person starting their journey to do so because it opens your mind, body, and soul to possibilities you’d never know existed!

I made a swift decision, and in two weeks I moved away from home, to be sure I had every opportunity to pursue a thriving career in Marketing, Fashion, Image Consulting, and Creative Direction before turning 30. I bet on myself, and by grace, I’ve been able to do just that.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?

Dansberry:
I’m most excited to bring to life visually intriguing, yet simply chic accessories, I’ve always wanted to see and wear, yet don’t exist! This excites me as a designer; creating pieces that don’t quite look like what they’re “supposed” to be, but is a concept both special and functional that must simply be shared with the world.

She Dandy:
I’m most excited about ushering in tools for the development of young entrepreneurs and brands, in a space that offers both creative support and resources for aligning a polished personal brand voice and personifies visuals that reflect an authentic representation of talent for all I represent.

No, it was and is not easy. Its taken discipline, faith, and a flexible forward-moving plan to achieve your dream in fashion. Innovating at a natural pace, creating a pocket that was true to myself and my passions, and understanding that my journey is my own, are lessons I’ve learned along the way that help me overcome challenges.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I’m giving this Shoutout, to my Mother, Donna Dansberry. I’d like to recognize her as being a beacon of hope and a driving force in my life to both challenge and champion my path. Her presence, filled with logic and an understanding of my desires, played a huge role in strategically aligning my route to education, the way I view functionality vs style and instilling me with a steadfastness that a Titan couldn’t match. I appreciate her for listening to me, being my biggest cheerleader, and being my angel on Earth. She’s the absolute best Mom!

Shoutout To You, Mom!
