We had the good fortune of connecting with Sierra Barnes and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Sierra, what do you attribute your success to?
It’s definitely a positive mindset. I think to be successful in any area of your life you need a positive mindset. I’m a believer that what you think you become. So, I always try and have a positive mindset no matter what I’m dealing with. Aside from that I think hard work and dedication. If I would’ve listened to any negative comments in the past I wouldn’t be the person I am today or where I am today.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I am a blogger from Dallas, Texas. I started blogging to share my love for fashion, beauty, lifestyle, and wellness with others and to also spread self-love and body positivity. Aside from being a blogger, I am also an artist. In 2002 I was diagnosed with Craniopharyngioma (brain tumor). This and other obstacles and challenges have only motivated and inspired me to pursue my dreams and passions. My ambition is to help and inspire others to live their truth and be their true authentic self.

“Thrive through the chaos, mess, and beautiful imperfections”.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
The Bishop Arts District is great and check out Zen Sushi. It’s my favorite restaurant and they have the best sushi.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Everyone who’s supported me and continues to support me especially my Mom.
