How do we define freedom?

For Lilly, who has the words “state of mind” tattooed on her left wrist, freedom is a state of mind. It is being free of our mind’s chatter and not being impacted by the drama that comes with society’s expectations of what is deemed acceptable.

For Dea, freedom is the ability to choose, without anything holding us back from what we need or desire in every moment. To be able to act for ourselves without worrying about “what people might say”; a fear that is instilled in many of us from a young age.

Above all, freedom is the access to basic rights like education. It allows us to think for ourselves; to form our own points of view. More than 129 million girls do not have the luxury of education in the world (according to UNICEF).

Thus, to raise awareness and financially support causes directly empowering girls through education, 50% of sales from this collaboration between Lilly & Dea will be sent to Mona Foundation.
