“ I AM NOT A
STATISTIC ”

— Gina

How It Started

Genesis Of Gina

Gina as a baby

My childhood was anything but idyllic. Behind closed doors, I experienced the relentless chaos of brokenness, violence, and the suffocating presence of alcohol in the mornings to follow. At just two years old, I became a victim of unspeakable sexual abuse — a horror that would shadow me for years to come. And at the tender age of seven, I suffered the devastating loss of the love of my life and only grandparent, Josephine. The following twenty five years were plagued by debilitating anxiety and a pervasive sense of existential doubt, leaving me to question my very existence.

How it’s going

YET,
HERE I AM…

...Gina Esposito, an International Speaker and the Founder and CEO of a worldwide acclaimed Atelier, named A Top Photographer in the World by Harper’s Bazaar. 

Exclusively profiled in WWD — Gina’s expertise and work have been featured  in Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, PEOPLE, ABC News, Business Insider, Condé Nast  Traveler, NY Times, LA Times, ET!, Thrive Global, Insider, The Huffington Post,  and countless podcasts. 

Gina has influenced and given storied expression to the lives of thousands  across the U.S., the Caribbean, Africa, Europe, and Asia. 

After logging well over ten thousand hours of studying human nature in various cultures, communities and geographical locations, she’s developed a universal language of people; a non-contrived, intimate, hands-on understanding of the human heart and mind. She has read rooms; instead of books. She developed the art of disarming people to be seen and empowers them to love what they see; their truest self. 

“My mission is to spread awareness on prioritizing individual truth, that will inform every area of your life. This recognition and conviction steers you through unintentional, self-imposed limitations that block you from truly living a life that’s already far too short. Because once you see the truth, you can’t unsee it.”

Universal Truths I’ve Learned

TRUTHS FROM
BEHIND THE LENS

Radical love changes everything. 

Fear and love provoke the two greatest responses. Fear freezes and love frees.  

Our view of reality is often not reality.

The experience of the human connection is miraculously medicinal for individuals and observers.  

A person is only afraid to be seen fully by someone they fear won’t appreciate them wholly. 

The hidden currency of a person’s worth reveals overflowing external value the moment they’re free to be themselves.  

One size does not fit all. Creative empathy reflects who a person is In the language they understand. 

The moment we walk into a room, We possess the ability to create instant influence.

“AUTHENTICITY IS NOT A LUXURY—IT’S A VITAL NECESSITY. AND EVERYONE WILL HAVE A CONFRONTATIONAL MOMENT OF ‘WHO AM I?’ AT ONE POINT OR MAYBE EVEN MANY. IT’S IN THAT INSTANT YOUR EYES BEGIN TO WIDEN WITH THE UNDERSTANDING OF JUST HOW RARE A LUXURY OF BEING AUTHENTIC TRULY IS...”
