She practically wanders around with a camera in her hand. It’s her passion and the key to the source of Ms. Morris’ creativity. When she’s not shooting clients, she’s modeling, acting and even directing. For Morris, finding the balance between work and her private life is essential.
“Keeping your business and personal life to yourself is protection, and one-sided relationships can only benefit one person,” she said.
What is your profession? What services does your job offer?
I am a creative person. I do everything from photography, writing, modeling, directing and acting. You name it, I do it.
How did you become successful in your field?
By being genuine and consistent with people. When you’re a good person and do good, it gets around.
What stress, obstacles do you have to deal with in your profession?
A lot. I’m a woman that’s in a male-dominated industry. I work with many men. Sometimes being the only woman can be a bit uncomfortable. Meanwhile, shooting women sometimes is worse because women are naturally competitive. I can tell a woman what I may think is nice, but off the bat most times women may think that you are trying to shade them.
At what age, or when, did you first start using cannabis and CBD products?
I started in my early 30s.
How often do you integrate cannabis and/or CBD into your daily/weekly routine?
Often at least a couple of times a week. I have a demanding career.
What positive effects does cannabis/CBD have on you?
What positive effects does cannabis/CBD have on you?
My creativity goes to another level.
What is your favorite strain of cannabis and why?
I honestly don’t have a favorite strain per se. I enjoy everything from the gummies to the oil. Depending on how my stress level is, that’s what helps me determine which one.
What is your favorite CBD product and why?
I don’t have a favorite, but the gummies actually taste good to me. Like regular candy. I can have a few throughout the day and be super nice.
What advice could you give to women that want to follow in your footsteps?
Take your professionalism seriously, never mix business and pleasure. Be feminine, but also be firm about your work. Also, dress for your environment and the job that you are there to do, so they know you mean business.
How has Covid affected your business/personal life? Both good and bad?
Covid has been amazing for my business. It forced me to slow down and got back in touch with my creative side. Also, tasks that were once a little out of reach are in the palm of my hand.
What has 2020 taught you?
That keeping your business and personal life to yourself is protection, and one-sided relationships can only benefit one person.
In so many words explain what goes through a woman’s mind throughout a day?
Do you have all day? I mean everything goes through my mind, children, career, finances, love and marriage. Not to mention, I tend to take on other people’s problems because I am empathic.
What advice can you give a man from a woman’s point of view on romance and life?
Always be direct, clear and communicative about what you want. Comprehension is a must as well.
What are your thoughts on a woman being elected Vice President of the United States?
It’s a beautiful thing, and I’m so honored to witness it.
