Sculpted By Light

In every role she embraces—whether as a daughter, a friend, an actress and host, or a devoted partner—Enzy sculpted new layers of her identity as a woman. Each role provides moments of reflection and growth, through which Enzy discovers that to fully navigate these roles with authenticity, she has to first cultivate a relationship with herself.

Between the silence of her thoughts and the clamour of daily life, a woman is always thinking. Within her exists contradictions—strength and softness, intellect and emotion, and to be her means carrying the expectations of embracing multiple roles—whether as a leader, a professional, a caregiver, or perhaps the nurturing friend, the compassionate partner, or the obedient daughter. For in one woman lives a thousand different women that are either a shadow of societal expectations or a reflection of the quiet strength of her being.

Enzy Storia is well-versed in the many roles that define a woman. As a daughter, she grew up witnessing how her mother fought to raise her, and as she found herself a teenager, she grappled with doubts and uncertainties for the future—like most teenagers do—until a talent search uncovered her hidden passion for acting. As a young lady, Enzy joined various casting sessions, only to become numb from the sting of repeated rejections. Eventually, she pivoted her focus to TV hosting, only to find herself extraordinary at the role, and a flood of acting and hosting opportunities have been pouring in ever since. As an actress and TV host, Enzy has much to be proud of, with accomplishments ranging from hosting at the State Palace and the Tonight Show, to walking in fashion shows in Paris and New York.

As a successful and self-sufficient woman, Enzy is completely able to take care of herself. Yet, upon falling in love and marrying her husband, she discovered that even though she is fully whole on her own, she is still allowed to let others take care of her. So when her husband’s career led him to move from Jakarta all the way to the United States, it was with mixed emotions that she chose to leave her flourishing career behind and follow him. “It was a sacrifice, but I approached the idea with the mindset that life is filled with seasons, and then was the season where I needed to prioritise my family. I realised life’s journey isn’t always about pushing forward; sometimes it’s about taking a step back to support those we love,” Enzy remarked.

The world often holds women to unattainable standards—standards that shift like shadows, always just out of reach. If a woman excels in her career, she might be accused of neglecting her personal life; if she prioritises family, she is seen as sacrificing her ambitions. Enzy faced this dilemma when she had to choose between moving to the United States to be deemed a devoted wife or staying in Indonesia to continue her success as an actress and host. Through this contemplation, she realised she did not have to choose at all—the true measure of her identity is the one she defines for herself, not the one dictated by societal expectations.

“Moving to the United States to support my husband’s career did challenge my sense of identity initially,” she reflected solemnly, “but it also enriched it. I came to understand that my identity isn’t solely tied to my career. I remain the same strong, independent woman, now with a broader perspective on life and a deeper appreciation for the various roles I can play as a woman in my own story.” After relocating to the US, Enzy embraced new roles—she became a student, learning English with curiosity; an athlete, running half marathons by her own design; and an entrepreneur, co-founding a business with a friend that’s set to launch this year. As a free-spirited soul, she relishes the freedom to become whomever she desires, as long as she defines it on her own terms.

As newlyweds, Enzy and her husband, Maulana Kasetra, found a special rhythm in their life together, carving out time each week for intimate dinners or tennis matches. “My marriage has been a beautiful journey, full of love, growth and learning. It has taught me patience, the beauty of compromise, and the importance of seeing my partner’s perspective.” Enzy finds joy in the everyday moments of connection—whether it’s a quiet morning, shared laughter, or a simple gesture of affection. “There was a moment when I truly realised how much I had grown. I was sitting with Maulana, and I felt an overwhelming sense of peace wash over me.”

While Enzy chased her dreams, celebrated milestones, and wore many hats with grace and determination, she is still no stranger to heartache and disappointments. Moments of sorrow such as losing loved ones and facing career setbacks have left their mark on her. “When I had to postpone college, I felt like my life and dreams had come to a halt. I was lost, unsure of where to even start,” Enzy confessed. But just as the seasons change, so do the phases of life. Enzy believes that both success and failure, joy and sorrow, bring the humility and resilience needed to fully appreciate life’s experiences. “Without failure, success wouldn’t be as sweet, and without sorrow, joy wouldn’t be as profound,” she beamed, her eyes twinkling with life.

As a woman of taste, Enzy favours a style that blends elegance with simplicity, choosing jewellery with a timeless appeal that is versatile enough for any occasion. The Chopard Ice Cube collection, inspired by the interplay of light and the geometric simplicity of ice, perfectly aligns with Enzy’s appreciation for clean lines and modern aesthetics. As she gazes at the Chopard Ice Cube jewellery pieces—from bracelets to rings, and necklaces to earrings that appears as if sculpted by light—Enzy notes how “its design captures a sense of strength and elegance that I truly appreciate.”

Like the jewellery she wears so stunningly, Enzy embodies both elegance and strength, sculpted too, by the light of the many facets of her identity as a woman. Whether as a daughter, a friend, an actress and host, a lifelong learner, an entrepreneur, or a supportive wife, she approaches each role with authenticity. “The challenges I’ve faced have made me stronger, more compassionate, and more understanding of this life,” she expressed. “And I’m proud of how I’ve stayed true to myself through it all.” As Enzy Storia celebrated her 32nd birthday last August, she reflected on the many women she has fit into, each one revealing her strengths in every challenge, grace in every struggle, and the quiet power in simply being herself—the woman she has become.
