The Summer That Broke Me and Built Me Back Up
The summer of 2015 hit me like a freight train, a season that unraveled my life and stitched it back together in ways I never expected. I was twenty-three, living in a cramped apartment in Atlanta with dreams of becoming a graphic designer. The air was thick with humidity, the kind that clung to your skin and made every step feel heavy. That June, I landed my first big freelance gig—designing a website for a local startup. It was my shot, the thing I’d been working toward since art school. But it came with a catch: a brutal deadline and a client who demanded perfection. I threw myself into it, skipping sleep, neglecting friends, ignoring the warning signs my body was sending.

My Biggest Regret and How I’m Making It Right
The air was thick with the scent of pine and damp earth as I stood at the edge of the old hiking trail, the one that wound through the hills behind our childhood home. It was a crisp autumn afternoon, the kind where the leaves crunched underfoot and the sky was a sharp, endless blue. I hadn’t been back here in years—not since I was seventeen, not since the day I made the choice that would haunt me for over a decade. My biggest regret wasn’t something I did, but something I didn’t do. I never told my brother, Ethan, how much he meant to me before he left, and that silence has been a splinter in my heart ever since.

The Death Of Authenticity
I was reading an article today... They were talking about the current state of LinkedIn... It was described as... "...a cosplay convention for overachievers, where everyone’s dressing up as the most optimized, inspired, leadership-synergizing version of themselves."

How to Navigate a Trauma Anniversary
A year after I was raped at 18, I sank down on the sidewalk, unable to keep going. I closed my eyes and didn’t get up until a friend found me and helped me into bed, where I didn’t speak or open my eyes for hours. I felt like I was trapped in time, unable to access relief until after the day had passed.
