When Life Says Slow Down… Listen…
I’ve been quiet for a while. Not because I had nothing to say, actually, it’s the opposite. My head has been full. Full of thoughts, tasks, emotions, responsibilities… noise. But somewhere along the way, that noise drowned out my voice. The one that usually shows up here, typing away, reflecting, sharing. So I paused. Not…

The Weeds, the Truth, and Me…
Well WP I almost missed this one today! I am still chasing my tail 😂 Principles??? Now that’s a good one! Where do I even start? Mine aren’t the sort you’d find printed in a self-help book or stitched onto a pillow. They were gathered the hard way, through scraped knees, broken hearts, and the…

Born Old (and Still Laughing)…
I really have to laugh at this one. Grown up! I felt grown up before I could walk!Some babies cry when they’re hungry. I probably sighed and thought, “Well, someone has to get this place organized.” It wasn’t that I wanted to be grown up; it just sort of happened. Maybe it’s what comes from…

Where the Money Blooms…💚
WP, are you going to get me a million or something? 😂 Because honestly, I could put it to good use, and I don’t mean yachts or handbags. If I had a million dollars to give away, I wouldn’t hand it over to some boardroom charity with polished shoes and a marketing plan. I’d go…

Still Figuring It Out…
When I read this question. What was the hardest personal goal you’ve set for yourself? My mind went blank. Not because I don’t have goals, but because I honestly don’t know which one counts as “hardest.” Maybe it’s because most of my goals weren’t written down in neat little lists or vision boards. They came…

Strangers by DNA…
I was thinking about my family today, dangerous territory, I know, and I came to a rather startling conclusion: we’re just strangers who share the same DNA. Exactly that. Nothing more, nothing less. It’s funny how long it can take to admit something that’s been sitting in plain sight. You keep hoping one day the…

Everything to Nothing (and Back Again)…
Losing Everything to Find Myself… I’ve lost all my possessions more times than I can count, sometimes through chaos, sometimes by choice, and sometimes because the universe gave me a firm nudge and said, “You won’t need that where you’re going.” I’ve walked away from houses full of things, furniture, clothes, memories stacked in boxes,…

Out of Place, Out of Time…
You know that question, “Tell us about a time when you felt out of place.” Well, that’s easy. Always. I feel out of place most of the time, and on bad days, I’m convinced I don’t even belong on this timeline at all. Honestly, I think I missed my stop and got off at the…

The Skill They Didn’t Want Me to Learn (But I Did Anyway)…
A letter from my future self… Dear Me, So here I am, ten years on, writing back. Funny thing is, the skill I mastered wasn’t glamorous. It wasn’t cooking, coding, or speaking seven languages (though, let’s be honest, that would’ve been handy when trying to decode executor-speak). No, the real skill was trusting myself and…
