Q. DESCRIBE YOUR UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE ON LIFE, WORK AND PLAY :D
Annabelle: With just one go at life, peace is important to me. I believe in giving everyone and everything I care about my 100%. My career is important to me because it pushes me to perpetually learn and grow beyond work; and play… I must. I want to experience all the craziest things.

Q. AS AN ENTREPRENEUR AND INFLUENCER, WHAT DO YOU ENJOY MOST ABOUT RUNNING YOUR OWN BUSINESS?
Annabelle: I cherish the platform to effect change within and beyond FREYJA. We get to share the confidence that comes with a good outfit, and more importantly, be an active part of the conversation about gender equality.

Q. SHARE MORE ABOUT THE NAME FREYJA :)
Annabelle: FREYJA is a norse goddess associated with beauty, love and kindness. She’s a kind, giving and powerful female figure in a patriarchal system, and is known to love a good thrill while looking all sorts of fabulous in her falcon feather cloak. ;)

Q. ANY SPECIFIC CHALLENGES OR BENEFITS IN BEING A FEMALE FOUNDER?
Annabelle: Especially in the early days of business, I had to work so much harder for my voice to be heard. Women everywhere still work harder to get the equal amount of recognition a male counterpart would get, but that’s exactly why we will keep exceeding expectations.
Q. IF YOU COULD #TAKEITANYWHERE, WHERE DO YOU HOPE TO SEE FREYJA?
Annabelle: #TakeittoLondon, my favourite city of all!
Q. FOR WOMEN WHO WANT TO GO BEYOND THEIR WILDEST DREAMS, WHAT’S A PIECE OF ADVICE YOU’D WANT TO LEAVE THEM WITH?
Annabelle: This is something I keep reminding myself to do- Take risks, calculated but scary ones. You can do well in a safe harbour, but getting beyond your wildest dreams requires jumping off a cliff - with a solid & fashionable parachute!
