This is a special card. This is my…my little girl, with her hair that she said, “kept growing out rather than down”, which is how she wanted it to grow. This is the princess card that was created because I couldn’t find it in the stores.

这是一张特别的卡片。代表我的女儿，她的头发是"一直往外长，而不是往下长"，这是她想要的。因为我在商店里找不到这种，因此创造的公主卡。

Habits of the Highly Successful

高度成功者的习惯

Motherhood launched my life in many ways, certainly launched my career. I was looking for a card for my little girl who was seven andgoing through this stage whereshe didn’t like her hair. And I went looking for a greeting card that would just kind of subtly reinforce her sense of self. And I thought, “I’ll find a brown-skinned princess” and…and realised quickly that there was a complete absence of anything that was representative. And had one of those epiphany moments where I thought, “Oh, why don’t I do this?” Rather than discarding the thought, I stepped into it, and it changed my life because it opened up this entire entrepreneurial journey where I realised the power of doing something which is driven by meaning.

成为一位母亲在许多方面影响了我的生活，当然也使我开启了我的事业。我当时正为七岁的女儿寻找一张卡片，她不喜欢她的头发。我就去找一张卡，希望能巧妙地加强她的自我意识。我想的是，"我会找到一个棕色皮肤的公主"，然后......我很快意识到，完全没有一张像这样独特的卡片。于是我灵机一动，"为什么我不这样做呢？"

我没有放弃这一想法，踏上了这条路，由此改变了我的生活，因为它开启了整个创业之旅，我意识到了做一些有意义的事情的力量。

Color-blind cards went on to be, really, the first independent publisher tosecure a presence for black cards or multicultural cards in the British High Street. We won lots of awards and got distributed in America and South Africa. And started this, or were certainly part of this early conversation around why representation and diversity and inclusion are so important in retail. I’m very proud of that.

色盲卡后来真的成为了英国高街里第一个为黑人卡或多元文化卡争求一席之地的独立出版商。我们赢得了多个奖项，卡片在美国和南非发行。我们开始致力于零售业中的代表性、多样性和包容性。我非常地自豪。
