It's nice to have you...
Hey, i'm Taylor and I've been walking a life-long path that is all about living my life on purpose. Why? I've come to learn that living life according to societal norms, family traditions or opinions, and other conditional filters = a life of unhealthy suppression and self-hate that gets nobody no where. I believe we’re always creating our lives...either by default or by choice. And I firmly believe that the more of us creating our lives from whole-hearted choice - the more chance we have at saving the world before we destroy it. So, welcome to my path. Join me. The best place to start is by joining the Do It On Purpose Club where immigrants in Berlin and beyond are learning and practicing doing their life on purpose together. Grand opening on October 1st 2025! 🥳

From obese glitter heiress to Berlin native...
From obese glitter heiress to Berlin native...
By the age of 18, I had binge-eaten my way to nearly 300 lbs (136 kg). As a child, I was diagnosed with ADHD and depression, and most of my formative years swung between bursts of high creativity and achievement, and deep cycles of depression and suicidal ideation. None of my relationships felt safe, and my journals were filled with hateful words I wrote to myself.
After a suicide attempt, I accepted my dad’s invitation to come to Germany, barely knowing him at the time, to work in his glitter factory and learn the language.
A bittersweet gift in disguise. I now live a purposeful life that I can't wait to wake up to everyday. And I learned the hard way that life will write you by default...until you pick up the pen and do it on purpose.

My Voice in Europe
My Voice in Europe
In this interview for My Voice in Europe, I share my journey of moving from the U.S. to Germany as a teenager. I talk about how Berlin has changed in the 14 years i've lived there, what belonging feels like as an immigrant, and why I believe Berlin (and Europe) needs more spaces for real cross-cultural connection and greater participation for those without EU passports. Living here without voting rights has meant finding other ways to make an impact - By doing my life in Berlin on purpose and bringing immigrant voices into the conversation with Germans and everyone I meet.
