23 and the Longing in Me
My eyes water while writing this, maybe because it’s one of those things that has been trapped for so long and I’m finally allowing it to be set free. I’ve learned so much about myself in the past year and some change. Everything I understood completely flipped, and that was a huge adjustment of unlearning. I didn’t think I’d get to this point. But now. Now my soul is calling for a long-awaited change. I get upset at myself because I get in my head and create reasons why I sh

23 and missing the 2016 Me
What a time to be alive. The year we all swear felt like the peak of existence. At least according to how we talk about it now. Let’s be real, most of us craving 2016 again were teenagers. Either just entering our teen years or at the very tail end of them. Crop tops, chokers, and following the one and only King Kylie. It was easier. Life felt simpler. But I think that’s because everything was already laid out for us. We didn’t have to figure out balance, adult friendships, f

23 and I'm not an aesthetic, I'm Me.
I don’t like cheetah. Wait! Oh my gosh! Cheetah print is my everything! Cheetah print is your everything? Oh my gosh, I’m so tired. Social media keeps creating these different molds of who we are supposed to be. One day it’s mob wife, the next day it’s it girl, the next month it’s main character but only if you have cinnamon blueberry nails and slicked back bun hair. Yeah. I know what I said. It sounds ridiculous. It’s frustrating seeing all of my peers, and honestly, even my

23 and What Is Love to Me
This was one of those shower thoughts. I have been racking my head over what today’s blog was going to be about, and this one is it. If I am being truthful with you, it is the reason I believe we are all here. Love. Yes, you read that right. Love. No, I am not talking about romantic, couple-type love. I am talking about how love is all around us every single day, and how often we turn a blind eye to it. You have love in so many different forms in your life that I do not think

23 and Choosing me
Here I am again because there is this irritating pressure in my head to keep going, and my body has no choice but to follow suit and push itself. Even though it is screaming at me to stop and take a break, I keep going anyway. I feel that overwhelming energy and push forward like a madman. But this is such a dangerous cycle to put yourself through. If you have watched Owning Manhattan, the boss character Ryan Serhant does exactly this, and I empathize with him. At the same ti

23 and New year, new me
I’d love to talk, but this is and always has been my favorite outlet. I am writing because I know I am not the only one who feels the overwhelming pressure to get it right. We all want to get it right, whether it is for ourselves, our family, or to prove to our younger selves that we showed up. Whatever your reason is, do not let it make you forget how fun it is getting there. Not getting it right, because I am going to tell you something right now. That is impossible. There
