About me

Hi, I’m Paula! I can’t wait to help you become a

High Value Woman.

I'm Paula, the founder and content creator behind Chicquette, a YouTube channel that's hit over 3 million views. My passion for fashion and personal development has shaped every aspect of my life, and I’m thrilled to share my journey with you.

I was born and raised in Romania and moved to the United States in my early 20s. Now, I live in the greater Boston area with my husband and our three young kids. We love outdoor adventures and always jump at the chance to catch a Broadway show or a Cirque du Soleil performance.

Chicquette is more than just a fashion channel—it's a community where I help women elevate their everyday looks with a touch of European flair and practical fashion tips. My style is inspired by the timeless glamour of Hollywood, and I believe in blending elegance with everyday wear. Working in corporate America post-COVID, I've embraced a smart casual business style that keeps my look feminine and timeless. Dresses, heels, and quality pieces are my wardrobe staples because I believe in investing in well-made items that stand the test of time.

But my journey is about more than just fashion. It’s about becoming a high-value woman—a concept I explore deeply in my work and personal life. Here’s a bit more about what drives me and what I share with my audience:

Independence

Growing up in Romania taught me the importance of self-reliance. I believe in creating a life where you are your own anchor. Independence means building habits and routines that allow you to perform at your best, continuously learning, and embracing solitude to reflect and grow. It’s about knowing that everything you do is for yourself, and anyone who joins you on your journey is a bonus.

Confidence

Confidence is something I’ve built over time, especially through my experiences on YouTube. Overcoming fears and practicing consistently have been key. I believe in showing up as the best version of yourself every day and diving into challenges without hesitation. Confidence grows from taking risks, learning, and embracing failure as part of the process.

Self-Development

Self-development is a lifelong journey. It’s about setting personal goals, embracing mindfulness, and taking care of your mental health. I’ve found that continuous learning and building resilience through challenges have been vital in my growth. It’s about always striving to be better and staying motivated through both successes and setbacks.

Physical Fitness

Staying physically active has always been important to me. Finding a fitness routine that works for you and prioritizing nutrition and wellness are crucial. I’ve also explored intermittent fasting and found it beneficial in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Physical fitness goes hand in hand with mental clarity and emotional well-being.

Mental Fitness

Keeping your mind sharp and maintaining emotional balance are essential parts of my routine. I’ve learned to cultivate techniques that support mental fitness, helping me stay focused and resilient in the face of challenges.

Fashion and Style

Fashion is more than just clothes; it’s a form of self-expression and a confidence booster. I’ve learned to invest in quality pieces and understand the impact of my image. Dressing appropriately and maintaining self-standards have been significant in shaping how I present myself to the world. Fashion, for me, is about building a character that drives my highest performance and staying consistent with it.

Career Development

My career journey has taught me the value of continuous learning, embracing fears, and finding joy in my work. Whether climbing the corporate ladder or starting your own business, it’s about aligning your daily job with your passions. Your work should be fulfilling and not just a grind. It’s about striving for a balance that makes you look forward to each day.

Motherhood

Balancing motherhood and career is a challenging but rewarding journey. Being a role model for my children and finding my identity after having kids have been crucial. Motherhood is about being the head of the household, setting strong examples, and nurturing my children’s growth with confidence and care.

Entrepreneurship

Being an entrepreneur means finding your unique voice and pursuing your passions relentlessly. It’s about creating value and not just consuming content. Investing in tools and resources that help you grow, like ChatGPT, has been instrumental in my journey. Entrepreneurship is about standing out and making a difference.

Becoming the best version of yourself is a lifestyle not a sprint.
