Explore and Embrace: A Journey of Resilience and Style
Welcome to Explore and Embrace, the newest clothing line from Urban Prophecy, launching in late 2025 to early 2026. This collection is not just about clothing—it’s about celebrating strength, resilience, and the unshakable belief that health challenges, trauma, and adversity should never define us. As someone living with a neurological disorder called FND (Functional Neurological Disorder), potentially epilepsy, and PTSD—following a violent attack where I was stabbed in my head and face—I know firsthand how physical and mental health struggles can seem overwhelming. But I also know that these challenges don’t have to stop us from pursuing our dreams.
Explore and Embrace is for those who refuse to let their health conditions or past trauma hold them back. It’s about encouraging everyone, no matter what they’ve been through, to keep going, to explore, and to embrace their full potential. Despite my regular seizures, past psychosis, and the lasting effects of the traumatic attack, I continue to travel, create content, and educate people about the history of the places I visit across Europe. My health may limit me at times, but it will never stop me from sharing my experiences and encouraging others to push through their own challenges.
Through Explore and Embrace, I want to create a community of people who understand that resilience is not about being invincible—it’s about continuing to move forward, no matter how many obstacles we face. This brand stands as a symbol of empowerment, encouraging everyone to break free from the limitations their health or trauma may impose and to live with ambition, authenticity, and courage.
This isn’t just a clothing line. It’s a movement of strength, self-expression, and the determination to rise above. Join us as we explore new possibilities, embrace who we are, and achieve what we once thought impossible.
Explore. Embrace. Achieve.
healing journey through travelling
The Journey of Healing
In early 2024, I set out on my first solo trip to Amsterdam, hoping travel would help with my mental health struggles. The peaceful canals, vibrant streets, and rich history of the city gave me a sense of calm and freedom I hadn’t known before. It was here I realized travel wasn’t just an escape—it was a way to heal.
Inspired by Amsterdam, I continued my journey. In Paris, the eerie yet powerful Paris Catacombs taught me about resilience, while in Ksamil, Albania, the tranquil beaches helped me reconnect with myself. Corfu, Greece, offered quiet moments of reflection, and Milan’s energetic vibe pushed me to step out of my comfort zone.
Finally, Rome, with its ancient ruins and timeless history, reminded me that like these monuments, I, too, had endured and stood strong.
Each place, each experience, brought me closer to understanding that healing is a journey, not a destination. Travel became the path I walked to rediscover myself, and I knew I had only just begun.
