Me too - what Kehlani said about this really resonated and felt very freeing ♡♡

[@zainabmejjaadam9545]

Totally. Was starting to almost not like one of my favourite hobbies- photography, cause I had turned it into a business. I'm in the process of rectifying that. Getting into a career of the bigger picture around creativity and community, and having photography as just a small part of it sprinkled in when i need it, hence I get to do more of it for me, and not just for my businesses or career.

[@olivia1643]

I’ve never clicked on a video so fast. I needed this. I’ve always said if I could meet any one famous in my life who has impacted it , above anyone I would pick Kehlani. She is so pure , she has the warmest heart and it’s so clear to see. Her lyrics are memories , the songs she makes keep my heart healthy and my mind strong and seeing her as a mother gives me so much positive focus in life. I would love to tell her how much her music has helped me heal. More people need to appreciate this woman , she is the light of the industry she’s in wow
