In her words:

"POV: Your husband bannned you from attending your fashion designing classes so you stayed back for peace to reign and used YouTube to continue training yourself at home. And anytime he caught me making a dress with my sewing machine, he thrëätëns to dë$tr0y the machine.
"I wasn’t even free to make money in my own home. Mind you, he didn’t buy the machine for me, my mom gave me her old machine my dad bought for her when he married her back in the days and I refurbished it and started using it as I couldn’t afford a sewing machine."
