Dear reader, Lately, I’ve been thinking about time. How slippery it is. How it feels abundant and scarce  at the exact same moment. How a single minute can stretch wide enough to hold 10 different productive actions… or shrink into nothing. As a matter of fact, I’m convinced time isn’t even real, it's just an illusion we ALL agreed to believe in. (And before you start calling me delusional, hear me out. I have a feeling I'm not the only one.) In one minute, I can load the la

You’re searching so earnestly for where you belong, somet

The greatest act of rebellion is to remember who you are when the world forgets Dear reader, How often do you hear the sound of your own quiet, unfiltered truth? For many of us, our inner space is not a calm sanctuary, but a noisy, demanding echo chamber filled with the voices of others: expectations comparisons and the relentless pursuit of an image set as perfect by society. In mental health, there's little that is as foundational as our self-image and identity. They are th

Dear reader, If you're here, you know that the journey of self-discovery—what we call "The Messy Becoming" —is anything but neat. We often chase the big idea of self-awareness , but sometimes, the real work starts by looking at the quiet, often-flawed picture we carry of ourselves: our self-image . Your self-image isn't just a fleeting feeling; it’s the heartfelt story you constantly whisper to yourself about your worth, your capabilities, and your potential. It’s built over
