Life, Values & Legacy: Our Chat with Kyla of NYC

We recently had the chance to connect with Kyla and have shared our conversation below.

Good morning Kyla, it’s such a great way to kick off the day – I think our readers will love hearing your stories, experiences and about how you think about life and work. Let’s jump right in? When was the last time you felt true joy?
I felt true joy last week. I started working on my Halloween, “KYLAWEEN” costumes, and I’m excited. I aim to create a series, so I want to see how this idea comes to life.

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
I’m Kyla, and I’m a fashion designer. I specialize in clothing and accessories. My favorite thing to create is hats; I love experimenting with different fabrics. I love creating, and I’m working on my brand, “Kyla NYC.”

Great, so let’s dive into your journey a bit more. Who saw you clearly before you could see yourself?
My parents.

If you could say one kind thing to your younger self, what would it be?
Good things take time! It’s not about speed but the direction.

Alright, so if you are open to it, let’s explore some philosophical questions that touch on your values and worldview. What’s a belief or project you’re committed to, no matter how long it takes?
Building my brand, Kyla NYC. I want to create options for people, so I’m working on building a cohesive brand. It takes time but thats ok.

Before we go, we’d love to hear your thoughts on some longer-run, legacy type questions. If you knew you had 10 years left, what would you stop doing immediately?
I would stop overthinking.
