Yako mi is "I'm okay" backwards because these designs are ​made for the person wearing them. This collection is not a ​fashion statement; It was designed to help redirect negativ​e thoughts into positive ones when you look in the mirror. In 2019​, my depression was so bad, I lost my "will" to live, until one day ​I cried so hard to the point that all I wanted to be was "okay". ​I wrote the phrase on my wall, and that was the beginning of m​y journey to help pull myself out of despair. I created thi​s collection for my own need to feel better and in the process, i​t began to help the people I love as well. Now, after nearly ​five years of personally benefiting from these designs, I’ve ​decided to release my collection to the public in the hopes of ​helping others to breathe through life challenges so they t​oo can ​know that they're okay.

It's so simple. Yet so POWERFUL! You have no idea the power those two ​words hold, until you've looked yourself in the mirror and said "I'm okay". ​Because in that moment, a spark emerges from the pit of your soul, ​pressure begins to lift from your chest, and something magnificent ​awakens inside of you. A glimpse of a happier version of yourself that ​seemed like a distant memory, now seems like it's within reach. A shirt ​won’t change the world, but maybe it can help you make it through the day.

When everything is going right, and we’re feeling like our normal ​happy selves, we have a long list of wonderful aspirations. But ​when our energy is low, during that moment all we aspire to be ​is “okay”. Every day is an opportunity to push through whatever ​you’re going through and to discover the power of positive self-​talk in order to give your mind, body, and spirit the boost it needs ​when times get rough. You’re not alone when you have a wealth ​of inner strength buried inside of you that’s just waiting for you ​to tap into it. You are strong and powerful beyond your current ​belief. Just imagine what you can accomplish when you shift your ​focus to positive aspects and qualities that you tend to forget ​you even possess.

When there’s no positivity around you, sometimes you gotta pull ​it from within. It’s okay to be a masculine individual and be your ​own cheerleader and coach at the same time. Whether you’re ​fighting depression, struggling with the overwhelming ​expectations of society, or just having a rough day, people on the ​outside may not understand, but the only thing that matters is ​that YOU understand. This shirt is fashionable, but it is not a ​fashion statement; it is designed to help you find the STRENGTH ​that lives deep inside of you.

It doesn’t matter how the outside world perceives you; what ​matters is how you perceive YOU. You have the power to change ​your life’s narrative and transform it into a story of hope, ​endurance, and strength, and it all starts from within. Life will ​always have twists and turns, so having the ability to roll with ​the punches will give you the advantage you need to survive one ​day after another.

How others see you is not your concern. How you see yourself is ​all that matters. When you look in the mirror, you should feel a ​sense of relief and confidence. A wise man once said, “don’t ​allow other people’s opinions of you become your reality.” ​Because no matter what anyone says, a the end of the day, you ​are okay.

Sometimes we are our own worst enemy because we do not ​know the phenomenal abilities we have yet to discover within ​ourselves. We stress and worry about the wrong stuff. We tend ​to give our precious energy and valuable time to frivolous things ​that lower your vibration. But no matter what anyone says or ​does, you must be able to look yourself in the mirror and say, ​“I’m here and I’m okay.” A t-shirt may not change the world, ​but maybe it can help you feel better during a time when all you ​got is YOU.

As humans, we strive for greatness. Some, more than others. ​But in different ways. We have different mindsets, beliefs, and ​will power. The one thing that we all have in common is pain. We ​all feel that shit. Society has brainwashed us in believing that it's ​not cool to openly express our most vulnerable feelings. We are ​conditioned to keep things like depression, social anxiety, and ​mental disorders on the hush, because it, quote on quote, brings ​the mood down. But guess what...it's real. It exist. And people ​secretly live with it every day and lives are being lost because ​people feel like they can't talk about it. A simple phrase can ​mean so many things to so many people. I'm Okay. Are you?

There are so many of us suffering behind closed doors, because ​we feel as if no one will understand. But there's comfort behind ​expressing yourself because sharing your story could not only be ​therapuetic for you, but it could mean inspiration and a sign of ​hope for someone else. How can we heal, if we wish not to speak ​about the things that are hindering us from truly being okay.

You don't have to be a gamer to draw inspiration from this ​shirt. Anyone who wishes to take control of his or her own ​lives, have the ability to do so with the power of possiblities. No ​matter how many times you feel like you've failed, you have ​the ability to start over and try again. You only get better with ​time and experience, so don't think of it as defeat; think of it as ​a chance to discover alternative outcomes.

We all have some amazing dreams tucked inside our minds that ​seem somewhat unattainable. But the problem isn’t our lack of ​resources…It’s our lack of self believe. We spend more time ​believing in people we don’t even know; we forget to believe in ​our own abilities to achieve greatness. When in reality, we have ​the ability to soar higher than the things that excite us on tv, if ​we learn to pull our strength from within.

Breathe. ​you’re okay.
