From Fashion Icon to Empowering Life Coach, Myrna Ivette Embarks on a Journey Beyond the Catwalk
Myrna Ivette Claudio, also known by her stage name Blackcat, is making waves in the fashion and entertainment world with her dynamic presence and multifaceted career. As a model, actress, mindset life coach, public speaker, and digital content creator, she brings an undeniable passion to every endeavor. Recently adding “author” to her impressive resume, Myrna’s book, “Life After Him”, has become a testament to her strength and determination to inspire others.
Starting her modeling journey at a young age, Myrna embraced the world of fashion with fervor. However, her journey has not been without pause—taking breaks to raise her family—she never lost sight of her ambition. Today, as Blackcat, she graces prestigious runways and the covers of fashion magazines, proving that her fierce determination is still very much alive.
One of her most recent and notable moments came during New York Fashion Week 2024, where she pranced down the runway for HiTechMODA in House of STL’s Season 12 collection. The event, photographed by Getty Images, also marked a significant milestone in her career as her image appeared on a Times Square Billboard, one of her proudest achievements to date.
