Lena Posted May 3 Author Share Posted May 3 (edited) We are pleased to introduce HAUS Institute, a new creative collective focused on diversity and inclusion in fashion and media. Our Vision At HAUS, we believe that embracing our differences makes us stronger. By bringing together talented people from varied backgrounds, we spark new ideas that push creative boundaries. With collaboration at our core, we aim to create works that resonate globally and advance culture positively. Our Structure HAUS will operate as an umbrella organization with subsidiaries like Vom Moda and Diversify maintaining independence. Future subsidiaries will also operate independently while benefiting from HAUS' resources, staff, and network to foster individual growth. Our Values More than anything, we strive to establish an environment of mutual understanding and respect where all feel seen, heard, and valued for who they are. Only through nurturing unity can we achieve our full potential and make lasting impact. Our Mission We recognize that certain groups still face barriers in self-expression and career progression. It is our goal to dismantle outdated barriers by opening doors and elevating new voices through opportunities across our organization. We hope to advance underrepresented communities and cultivate the next generation of industry leaders. Our Strength At HAUS, diversity is our greatest strength. We hope you will join us on our journey to reimagine these industries through an inclusive lens. With creativity and compassion as our guides, we will build a brighter future defined not by superficial measures but by our shared humanity. Our vision is of a community without barriers where all feel empowered to reach new heights. We are thrilled to launch HAUS Institute and begin cultivating this inclusive community. There is important work still to be done to ensure all people feel respected and have equitable opportunities to achieve their dreams. We hope you will partner with us in this mission to inspire greatness in one another and use our collective talents to spread messages of unity, compassion, and social progress. Together, through collaboration and commitment to our vision of diversity and inclusion, we can work to make the industries we love stronger and more representative of humanity in all its beauty. We hope you will join us. Edited May 6 by Lena 12 3 Link to comment
Lena Posted May 6 Author Share Posted May 6 (edited) On Sunday, HAUS Institute kicked off the season with a picnic, bringing colleagues together for a day filled with discovery. The event saw teams rotating between photoshoot challenges at an urban location before reconvening for food, drinks and games in a picturesque vineyard setting.

Sammy Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 (edited) Spoiler All the 'What brings you here?' begins to feel like a swirl—a constant attempt to reintroduce me to new counselors, therapists, and the alike. Another CBT session, and another day to wake up to the same bed. And just like that, I awaken to my scheduled alarm. 7:24. You know, in numerology, every number has a meaning. 724 symbolizes a message from the divine that you are advancing on your spiritual journey. But then again, maybe that's the Risperidone talking. Word of advice, never meet your idols—especially if they're an influencer. You will begin to realize that you'll influence them more than they'll influence you. And in the end, after being Sonny for so many years? You'll begin to realize that you want to be Cher. After a while, every day begins to feel the same. Just another out-of-body experience. You see some people lament about it, romanticize it. And that's fun to do when you're in your early twenties. But then you grow numb, and your body starts to feel older than it is. And just like that, there I am again. Editing another batch of photos in the office. Sometimes, I even respond to Facebrowser messages. And my responses? They're either too long or too boring. But that's how you get people to leave you alone—and honestly, people in this city scare me. Questioning things for me? It leads to redirection of thought. Redirection away from that white blip, that white blip of an experience that feels as if it is happening in real-time. Where I am just that girl again, unable to defend myself, and the adult in me envisions a different outcome. Lately, my therapist has been asking me about my dreams, and my dream place. At first, I thought it was work. At work, I can be independent, and I do not need to rely on anyone else. But as we have continued to grow, I have had to rely on others, and accept the inevitable. The inevitable that failure and people disappointing me will exist in my career, too. In my career, there have been failures, but including other people into that failure? That is more pressure than I ever expected, and truthfully, I tried limiting Diversify's growth to avoid pressure. Now, with the development of Haus, it is a new beginning—we have a team alongside Vom Moda, and things are seeming more cohesive by the day. As much as I want to rely on others, I never thought it'd be plausible. But Mila and Haus' other employees, they're teaching me to put faith into others, and to learn how to trust again. "So, yeah. Things are beginning to look up," Faith says. "The last time you asked about my dream place, it got me thinking, and I think we both know at this point, I want a family... I want to raise a family in the Suburbs, away from Los Santos. But right now, that's not in the cards, and I've got something to prove—to myself, and others."
