Friend, 

It is so lovely to have you here. What an intimate journey you are on to discovering who you were always meant to become. 

My name is Christina, the founder of CHŌ. As a little girl, I always imagined myself to be one who pursues her dreams & I am proud to say I am now a Woman with timeless visions of how pursuing those dreams will transform me into who I long to be. From being born as a dreamer, to growing up envisioning what Womanhood looks like, to working with companies like ELLE magazine, I have found myself to be ambitious — always working hard to be someone who is confident in who she is. With all of that being said, I still found myself searching for something & finally opened myself up to the idea that I could just...be. I am delighted to say that something sparked within me in 2021 and a lot of personal growth has come through my transformation to Womanhood. Over the last year, I have welcomed change from reaching milestones, invited incredible people into my life, and continued to encourage myself to become — Her. 

历程 : (lì chéng) meaning journey of the heart 

You are going on a journey of the heart. Be patient & give yourself the time you need to take it all in! The nature of this time can be described as bittersweet — you are growing up & leaving who you once were to approach the inner Woman you have patiently waited to meet. There are beautiful parts of you that are waiting to be held & I ask you to be the one who tenderly stretches out her palms & says, “these pieces are for 

you,” when the little girl inside of you has arrived at the beginning of this path. This is your journey! You are capable of so much more than you may realize. I am so happy (that) you have made it here & I can’t wait to see what is in store <3 

As promised to my younger self, I will continue to transform & my hope is (that) you will too. 

Kind Regards,
