Hi, I’m Gugu

I’m a perfectionist and this is what stops me from posting or showing up sometimes 🫣

But I told myself that this year I’m chasing rejection, with the goal of learning to let go of perfectionism and the fear of “not being good enough” that tends to stop me from applying myself!

So join me on my journey of acting, sober living, entrepreneurship, travels, maybe stand-up comedy, maybe becoming a hairdresser 🤪

The sky is the limit!!!

This is my year of chasing rejection, letting go of perfectionism & finally just doing (instead talking about it)

So today that means being uncomfortable in public 🤪

Meet Gugu 👋🏾🎭

Making her Hamilton Fringe Festival debut!

She’s calling this her “chasing failure” era. Taking risks, leaning into what she’s always wanted, and seeing what happens. (Her words: please don’t boo. 😭)

This is what it looks like when you stop waiting and just go for it. Come support the journey.

🎟️ Tickets in bio — July 17–26
| Player’s Guild, Hamilton

Fun Fact: In Korean my name is 99 ☺️

Hi, I’m 99

This was my favourite way to introduce myself ♥️ so here’s proof that 99s rule the world 😜 taken in Itaewon, Seoul by @gugumpofu

When I was visiting my friends in Korea I loved bouncing around to different cafe’s and book stores and just slowing down and being in that moment… which was also the perfect time to people watch 😌

And the best part?
Meeting the sweetest people along the way like @sezooblanco , who took these beautiful photos of me 🥹🧡

Looking back at these reminded me of a promise I made to myself:

I want more childlike wonder in my life
More curiosity
More unexpected moments
Less living for the weekend and more living in the moment

Because honestly… you never know who you’ll meet or what you’ll learn about yourself when you finally slow down and take life in taken in Starfield Library by @gugumpofu
