The Human
Behind Diamond Time Co.

Hi, I'm Lindsay!

​

And I’ve always believed that love can change the world. Some may say i’m idealistic, but I’ve witnessed it time and time again in the smallest exchanges that make the biggest impact.The little moments that often go undocumented, without any applause or cameras rolling. The randomly placed connections where someone feels seen, understood, or a little less alone than they did before.

​

Over time, those moments started to shape how I viewed the world, how I move through life, and eventually, how Diamond Time came to be.

​

Over the years, countless people have stopped me in response to some of my tattoos - specifically the phrases that I carry as reminders. There were times where strangers approached me with tears in their eyes, telling me what they read on my skin was exactly what they needed in that moment. What followed was almost always the same...

​

A mix of authentic conversation, genuine connection, and a shared experience of life and love. Over time, I realized those moments were actually teaching me something about life itself, and I wondered how I could bring more of that into the world.

​

Long before Diamond Time was a brand, it was something I was already living. I learned early on that life doesn’t move in straight lines, but in cycles and spirals. It moves In seasons of pressure/release, darkness/light, and contraction/expansion.

​

For a long time, I didn’t fully understand that rhythm. I could only feel it, and do my best to buckle up and hold on tight. But loss has a way of bringing life into sharper focus. After my brother passed away, I made a silent inner vow to live fully for both of us.

​

At first, I didn’t know how. In the years that followed, it often felt like no matter how hard I tried to stand up, life kept pushing me back down again. Those seasons were heavy and disorienting. But each time I emerged from another chapter of excess weight, I felt lighter, clearer, and more expanded.

​

Slowly, I began to understand that the pressure I was experiencing wasn’t punishment (even though it often felt that way). Life, God, the Universe (whatever language resonates), wasn’t working against me... It was actually shaping me.

​

With each season, a different version of myself grew. I couldn’t always explain it, but I could observe it. The way it was refining me into something stronger, more luminous, and more whole.​ You know… like a diamond.

​

As I changed, so did the way I noticed and interacted with the world around me. I began developing a growing sensitivity to how fragile time really is. I became more aware of how much weight certain moments carry, and how true presence can turn something ordinary into something with immense meaning.

​

And since humor has always been one of my ways through the dark, I started calling those periods of excess weight "diamond time," instead of saying, "life is really f*cking hard right now." I wanted the weight to have meaning, but without feeling so heavy. So in a way, the brand came together accidentally.

​

Diamond Time was always just a phrase to me, but became a creation that’s as multifaceted as a diamond itself.

​

Clothing has always been one of the ways I expressed myself, way before the brand was even a thought. I’ve always gravitated toward outfits that carry meaning. I love pins & patches with little messages and reminders on them, funky patterns, matching color schemes, and pieces that feel unique and expressive without needing to shout. Clothes that make you feel something the moment you put them on.

​

Let’s just say that I’m drawn to anything that carries feeling... especially language. I’ve always had a thing for a good play on words with rhythm and rhyme, mixed with phrases that feel poetic, a little quirky, and deeply human. For years, people have said to me, “You should put that on a shirt.” I guess i’m finally listening to that too.

​

Diamond Time is my way of sharing love in motion. Through words you can wear, share, and feel. It’s for anyone who carries grief, heaviness, or heartbreak, and understands how meaningful those small shimmers of light can be on a dark day. It’s for those of us who are still choosing to show up authentically, imperfectly, playfully, honestly, and with a sense of humor in tact - despite everything we’ve endured.

​

At its core, Diamond Time is about love, presence, reflection, connection, endurance, faith, and giving back. It’s about remembering that real, authentic love is what changes the world - one small moment at a time. It’s my way of honoring a vow I made to live fully, and a commitment to bring more love into the world.

 

And in its own way, this is something we’re creating together. Because every moment matters, and we’re all a part of it.​
