Sasha Lewis is a blogger, graphic artist, dancer, mental health and well-being advocate and single mama to a two year old baby girl. Sasha didn’t always think that her creative journey would lead her to blogging. In fact, she always believed dance was going to be her way. However when she was in her teens, her world was flipped upside down when she was told after an accident that she was never going to be able to do the things she loved to do, and her struggle to understand herself and her mental health began.
Sasha attended The Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles and initiated the possibility of a career in retail design, merchandising, and marketing. She silently battled her mental health hurdles when she began dealing with with anxiety, depression and OCD, but knew that it couldn't break her completely.
After years of struggling with her mental health and one beautiful baby girl on the spectrum of Autism later, Sasha created a safe space for those struggling with their mental health to turn to: The Cha-Cha blog. Her blog touches on wellness, lifestyle and even home decor as a way to serve as inspiration, and a source of information and entertainment. Most importantly the blog has created a community of positivity and open communication. The Cha Cha Blog is intended to be the outlet for others, that she wishes she had at the start of her journey.
