Navigating My Journey: The Quiet Side of Building My Brand

I've always yearned to create something of my own, though I was uncertain about the form it would take. Perhaps I was a bit of a delusional dreamer, lacking a clear path. My childhood was far from privileged; raised by a single mother who worked tirelessly to provide for us. She became my inspiration, demonstrating an incredible work ethic and pride in every job she undertook.

If you believe that your dreams are unattainable due to your background or circumstances, think again. You can achieve anything you desire because your desire is real and that reality already exists and its within you. But you must act on it and believe even when your current reality shows no proof. 

My goal was always to live a creatively driven life, to feel freedom in the things I do and the things I create or change. My daily life consists of a multifaceted range of emotions and I constantly find myself struggling to maintain a sense of inspiration in all the formalities of life. It’s not typical for business, nor is it ideal to wait until inspired to create, to execute to perform only when your in the mood, and it can be hard to stay on task or business-focused when you live in a world where your source of energy is inspiration. I've always admired entrepreneurs who juggle countless tasks with seamless grace, making it seem effortless. But for me, the reality is a bit different.

Balancing a full-time career and building Viviana Halil means living two lives simultaneously. It often feels slow, methodical, and even lonely. I have come to embrace what I call sacrifice for it cant all be effortless and graceful the quiet nights paralleled to the turbulence from the hectic stressful days wondering how I will make it all work, are a journey and when I am heavy in my feels I like to close my eyes and I visualize paint and the colors of every emotion creating this beautiful work of art every stroke every color that is the journey of me as Viv through this world on this journey.

VH was created purely out of inspiration the inspiration to make you feel beautiful, to give you a piece of jewelry that makes you feel beautiful, to be able to craft a piece of jewelry that can give you the same feeling as those diamond pieces with a simple design. Luxury is a feeling, it's not a price tag. What do you value? I ask myself this often.

Embracing Solitude: The Sacrifices Behind the Scenes

This past week highlighted the solitude that comes with dedication. Scrolling through Instagram, I saw loved ones attending dinners, social events, and couples spending romantic evenings out. Meanwhile, I was deep into the numbers, analytics stressed over what isn't working and why it isn't, sketches, and marketing strategies. It’s bittersweet, yet I would not change anything about it, knowing my sacrifices now are paving the way for something beautiful, which is the privilege to be on this journey, and later, I sometimes question if I’m missing out on life's spontaneous joys. There were nights this week when the silence around me felt louder than usual.

But within that quietness, and loudness of all my inner thoughts, something powerful always happens—I learn to embrace it. I remind myself why I started this journey. It’s not just about jewelry; it’s about creating a legacy, something meaningful, something timeless. It goes deep, it's the start of something that will pave the way for others. My hopes are to build a team of empowered people. My dream is to build orphanages and give back to the children of this world, things basic like clothing or perhaps instruments, an easel and paint, or cover the fees for sports. I am happy to announce that soon this will all be part of our VH mission. And I am very thrilled and cant wait to share with you all the things we will accomplish together. I believe every child should live inspired they should have access to the things that inspire them. I don’t know if anyone is reading this or if perhaps one day this will inspire just one person. That in itself is enough to share my days and weeks with you. At the end of it all my message will always be luxury isn't about diamonds, labels or yachts. Its deep within you, it is a feeling you carry that radiates and people notice. True luxury is not based on what you wear or what you buy, you are true luxury and these are just accessories decorating your wrist or perhaps ears with beautiful sparkle that compliment what you already have within you. 

Becoming Her: The Beauty in the Process

There’s an undeniable beauty in this slow, steady process. Every quiet evening spent alone, every challenge conquered solo, every doubt silenced through persistence—it shapes me into the woman I’m meant to become. I’ve learned that alignment is everything. I refuse to rush my process even when I ask myself and the universe why is this taking so long? Why is it not going as I planned. Why am I not achieving my goals as fast as the others? These are normal questions and we will not always know why or how but if we firmly believe we don't need answers we trust the process we align and go for it everyday . If my energy feels off, I wait. I don’t leave my home until I am energetically aligned. For me, alignment isn't a luxury—it's a necessity. It's how I protect my dreams from the harsh realities of the 3D world, preserving my vision from external doubts and opinions.
