She says, "It's as if I were born with a passion for it and only discovered my ability to sing and write." She grew up in church, where she further developed her love for music alongside her father, himself a musician and singer. According to Anastia Léyon, he contributed significantly to her passion for pursuing music professionally. 

She used her music as a means of honoring the memory of her father after his passing. She says, "After losing my father, I discovered my ability to write and create music kept me connected to him. I used my writing to explore my grief; it helped me express my feelings, thoughts, and emotions. I found that my ability to create heartfelt music resonated with the experiences of others as they went through their own life journey and ultimately helped heal their soul as it did mine."

She continued, "My father was my biggest inspiration because of his musical aspirations. He gave me the passion, the desire, and the appreciation to leave no dream deferred. 
I've faced many setbacks and challenges that I had to overcome, from losing my father to discovering who I am as a person and as an artist, sister, daughter, and woman. Life is always happening. But it has been the obstacle to and catalyst for my artistic development."
