Daily writing prompt

Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?

View all responses

What makes someone truly unique isn’t just their talents or tastes, but the quiet, unmistakable way they move through the world. It’s in the stories they never tell out loud, the way their laugh sneaks up when they’re not trying to be funny, and the moments they choose kindness over convenience. It’s their contradictions—the fierce loyalty paired with gentle boundaries, the vulnerability hidden inside their strength.

We’re shaped by our histories, yes, but our uniqueness lies in how we carry them. In how we find beauty in the mundane, how we love, how we forgive, how we start again. No one else has your exact rhythm, your exact radiance. And that’s not an accident—it’s your edge, your essence, your magic.

Dorey Duncan Scott Senior Litigation Paralegal

Hi! I’m Dorey Duncan Scott, a mother of three, wife and fashion entrepreneur. I started my career in fashion back in the early 90’s when I did print, still and runway modeling. I studied Fashion Merchandising, Music Business and Marketing, while also obtaining certificates in such industry-necessary areas such as make-up, styling and runway choreography. In addition, I had work as a spokesmodel for several brands, appearing in print and in person. As a former model, turned senior litigation paralegal, artist manager and on-air personality with a passion for fashion, beauty, and personal development, I bring a unique combination of style, strategic thinking, and legal expertise to my work. My years navigating the legal world have sharpened my attention to detail, while my experience and passion for fashion, beauty, and personal development drives my desire to help others feel empowered and help them in their journey toward self-empowerment. My experience in the fashion world has taught me the power of confidence.
