✨👑 Inspiring | Influential | Resilient 👑✨
My name is I'zairria "Izzy" Beard. I was born in Ecorse, MI in November '96. My adolescent years were shared in a home with a devoted mother and 6 siblings. My mother moved us to Detroit, MI when I was 11 years young, but we continued sharing homes while making friends/family in both communities until my late teenage years. Growing up in a home full of family, each of us learned how to survive and depend on one another. I loved to dance, sing, and cook as a child. My mom always cracked jokes about me not being able to sit still or control myself when music came on. If I'm being honest, I still can't 😂. It's just something about music that I can't explain. I can sing like it's nobody's business, but it's so personal to me that I still struggle to share that particular métier with the world.
My passion for learning has always been undeniable. I was always a scholar first and then I developed a deep love for sports. I was never afraid to get my hands dirty, in fact, I probably preferred it that way. I was the "tom-boy" with the nappy ponytail and head bands, jogging pants, and extra tough exterior. My mom and dad saw through my hard exterior, they always treated me like their little girl (and still do). I completed trade school while in high school, becoming certified in culinary arts because cooking was my muse. Cooking still feeds my soul to this day. I enjoy it so much that I refuse to share a kitchen and make a profession of it. As a child I believed my true calling was becoming a detective. I blame my grandma for keeping Law and Order: SVU on the TV 24/7. I spent many of summers in Downriver, MI where the fun was always risky and the drama never ended. I always knew the stereotypical "street" life wasn't my future and God had a different plan for me. I knew my way out was to go to college and to never look back. I graduated with my second degree in Criminal Justice in 2018, receiving both from Ferris State University.. GO BULLDOGS 🐾♥️🟡!! Those degrees led me to Georgia in May 2019 to complete my internship and pursue my career. Throughout my time in Georgia, I faced many challenging times that tested my faith, strength, and tenacity. By the strength of God, I persevered and overcame many obstacles that were meant to disrupt my mental and send me on my way back home.
During the storm, I still had my focus on what was important to me. I created Sungina 🌻 during a very dark time to be a vessel for other strong women who've never felt comfortable showing weakness and confiding in others. Before we get into specifics, let's talk about the intention of the name "Sun•jeye•nuh". My favorite color is yellow and my favorite flower is the Sunflower. I believe our vaginas are as delicate and precious as a flower, which weighed heavy in my inspiration when creating Sun•gina.
Sungina🌻 was originally created as a private forum for women to be able to learn about vaginal health, build connections, and to trust their vulnerable characteristics without shying away from them as I've done for years. I wanted to help women learn about their vaginas in a positive light because I was once a young brown girl before; I knew first hand that we weren't taught about vaginal health or simply, how to cleanse and take care of our vaginas properly. After accomplishing a safe haven where women felt comfortable having difficult conversations with complete strangers and learning from one another, then came the thought of how I could continue to serve my purpose in a different way. I grew up with severe eczema that was visible to everyone around me. My mom did great at treating it but she wasn't able to stop it from reoccurring because modern day medicine gives us ways to treat but not prevent. I began making my own skin care products that worked on my own sensitive skin. As a sophomore in college, I stopped using lotion, Vaseline, and leading brand moisturizers. I switched to organic oils only, Coconut, olive oil, and almond oil to start. Following the lotion, I gradually stopped eating meat altogether by my junior year which was 2016. Here we are in 2026, I've maintained my Pescetarianism for 10 years and you couldn't pay me to use a bottle of lotion. My skin wouldn't accept it and I love my body way more than to revert back to what's caused us melanated beings so much trauma in our lives. Some may think it has no bearings on our severe medical diagnosis rates, but our skincare routines are weighing just as heavy as the food we consume. Sungina 🌻 is here to help convert lifestyles one habit at a time, whether it's diet, skin care, generational habits, or simply just learning to love ourselves more in private so we can be confident in public.
Sungina🌻 is more than a business to me. I've spent many days that turned into nights, building and creating when all I had was my vision and my prayers. God saw me through and helped me bring my vision to fruition. I'm just 29 years young but my purpose has never been more clear. My sole existence is to live with purpose, be impactful, and to make a difference in others lives. I know I was created to spread love, knowledge, and to be an example of what it looks like to defy the odds and put yourself first. Dare to be different and become your own idol. Your abilities are limitless.
Love and light to all.
-Love Izzy 💛.
