The way you write about the intricacies of your relationship with yourself and others is so spot on and relatable. You get to the heart of things that I often find difficult to put into words. Bravo and thank you xx

This piece is so relevant to this phase in life that many of us (myself included) have not planned for. I’ve been challenging myself to bring curiosity to a relationship as opposed to self-preservation; bravery over approval. Thank you again for sharing these snippets. Love your writing.

It feels a bit like being in free fall, doesn't it? I was telling someone recently that I'm just starting to feel really secure in this kind of relating-- not just with others but with myself, too. It's disorienting to give in to being so vulnerable. But at the same time, I feel so free, confident, and trust myself to navigate whatever comes my way. Keep going; it's worth it!
