Being a Woman in a Misogynistic World
Sometimes, I have to remind myself that good people still exist. Because let’s be real, the world feels like a constant cycle of bad news, bad people, and bad vibes. And when it comes to men, I have to remind myself even more. There are good men out there, sure, but damn, when you live…

I Am the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me
I just watched a stupid movie called “Ricky Stanicky” on Prime Video. It was okay, not something I’d rave about. But near the end, there was this line: “Erin’s the best thing that ever happened to me.” And out of nowhere, a tear rolled down my cheek. My brain instantly asked, “Has anyone ever felt…

What to Do When You Miss Someone?
I’m someone who always misses people because, duh, I’m a lover girl. But it’s not just that, I think I’m a nostalgic person in general. Not in a sad, miserable way, but in a “wow, that was a good time” kind of way. I just miss the feeling, you know? But lately, I’ve been wondering……

Surviving a Home Full of Miserable People
Ok, that might sound harsh, but it’s the truth. My family is the perfect example of what happens when people who shouldn’t be together are stuck in the same house, trying to make it work. The reality is, we’re all trapped under one roof, and it’s hard to ignore the tension that fills the air…

Solo Date, A Few Things on My Mind
Two days ago, I decided to take myself on a date. It had been a while since I went out alone, and I figured it was about time. At first, I was nervous, so much so that I ended up calling a couple of friends just to hear their voices. As soon as I hung…

True Confidence is About Feeling Good in Your Own Skin
Confidence is not about being better than anyone else. It’s about knowing I look good and recognizing that everyone else looks good too. If confidence makes you put others down, that’s not confidence, that’s narcissism. And that’s also the behavior of something people are talking about online these days: the “Pick Me Girl.” I’ve been…

I’m Not Fucking Around and Finding Out Anymore
Maybe I’m getting older, or maybe my brain finally finished developing, whatever it is, I like it. It’s like a switch flipped in my mind, and suddenly, I see things differently. I’m more aware, more intentional, and honestly, a lot more at peace with myself. I used to be all about “fuck around and find…

The Art of Letting Go and Loving Yourself
I recently came across a video Let Them from Looking at Life with Dee on YouTube. If you’ve seen it, you probably know which one I’m talking about, the old lady reading a piece written by Cassie Phillips. The idea is simple yet powerful: Let them. “If someone chooses something or someone over you, let…

Love, Heartbreak, and a New Chapter at 26
Ah man, 25 and heartbroken. Kinda funny when you think about it. I mean, it’s not like I’m old, but heartbreak doesn’t really care about that, does it? It just keeps showing up in different ways at different times, and no matter how many times we go through it, it always hits a little different.…

Love, Fear, and Everything In Between
I wrote this in my diary the day before my period, so let’s just say my PMS might have been talking. But even if it did, that doesn’t make these feelings any less real. Emotions hit differently at times, and that’s okay. If something here resonates with you, maybe it’s not just me. Maybe it’s…
