How I started my journey with Warrior Saint
Here is the story of Warrior Saint…We began in 2022, Warrior Saint, at the age of 18 was both exhilarating and challenging. With little more than a vision and a relentless drive., I dove headfirst into the world of fashion, knowing it wouldn’t be easy, it involved me posting daily videos on TikTok from fashion, lifestyle to shopping hauls.
As i begin to grow my niche through the world of social media, i worked in a retail job at this point but stepped up my game by working in sales with the risk of working completely on commission, I both regret and not regret working in this industry as I faced many challenges believing my whole life revolved around sales, although my attitude was tested, I definitely learnt a lot about how to communicate in many different ways with many different types of people. I wouldn’t be who I am today if it wasn't for the motivation I sucked in from this challenge of a job, some days were great!, but some days caused me to get emotional causing anxiety and level of stress that I have never experienced. I ran my own team, this team was named after the name on my birth certificate, Junaid hence how I created ‘Warrior Saint’. The name Warrior to me personally stands for someone who’s just in this world which I imagine as the battlefield and fighting till their last breath till they reach their goal.
Every time I see Warrior Saint, it makes me think of family and how proud I want them to see me from the little boy I was to the man I’ve become. My family being the only human beings in my life who have been there for me from thick to thin, they drive me to keep chasing my dreams. Hence why i believe in the quote ‘CHANGE THE PLAN NOT THE GOAL’. Meaning if something isn’t going right, take step back, see what can be different and KEEP GOING. When I see my brand I never give up hope in life. The journey was filled with countless obstacles — from sourcing materials and learning the ins and outs of design to facing the financial strain of a new business. There were moments of doubt and setbacks that made me question whether I could continue, but my passion for creating something unique and meaningful not only to myself but to the customers who will be attracted kept me going.
Each challenge taught me valuable lessons, and slowly but surely, Warrior Saint began to take shape. Despite the tough beginnings, the process has been one of self-discovery, resilience, and growth. Now, looking back, I’m proud of how far I’ve come, and I know that the struggles were all part of the journey that will make my brand stronger.
