Introduce Yourself (how you want to be defined)

I like to introduce myself first by my name – Kshanika Anthony. I gave a thought about and decided I don’t want to introduce or define myself in terms of family or job. I am more than my job or social identity. I’d love to define myself in 3 concepts – heart, head, and hands. Heart because I have a big heart, I am empathetic, and compassionate. Head because I am very attracted to intellect and am very curious. Hands because I am practical, I love to experience and learn from doing.

How has this EXPERIENCE/photoshoot shifted the way you see yourself?

Five years ago, may be even two years ago, I would have been too self-conscious and said no to the photoshoot. On the day of the photoshoot, I decided I am going to be me. I am with people I respect and admire. I am going to have fun. Upon reflection, it is about my journey thus far – I feel grounded, self-confident, not worried about what others think. I feel free. Most of all, I am happy I can be myself, have a bit of fun, and not take myself so seriously. When I look at these photos, I will always be taken to that moment of fun and feeling good!

What fills your cup?

My family and friends. Feeling of freedom and not feeling boxed-in. I like to walk on the beach, run, be in the water, and travel off the beaten path. All of which have an open span.

Cloth & Co. is focused on "the power of fashion to change lives”, what does that mean to you?

For me it means to empower and to be empowered. Empowering women – buying from a women owned business and the women who makes the clothes. Feeling empowered because when I wear Cloth & Co. clothes, I feel free, joyful, comfortable, and confident.
