September Self-Love Letter
September 1, 2026 Radical Acceptance. Internal Locus of Control. They’re both just concepts. Words. But because I choose to give them power, they help me. And in the end isn’t that all life comes down to, choice?So I choose to radically accept what I cannot control and apply my locus of control internally. I only…

Here Comes the Rain Again…
Greetings lurkers and lurkettes (kidding!) When I blog, sometimes the topic comes to me during the week or every now and then I use one I’ve jotted down. And most times, the day comes and it becomes something else. Today: we’re freestyling. We’ve lost a lot of good people this week. It almost feels like…

Dial Q for Quitting
V for Vendetta was a mid movie (to me!) but it did help me settle a debate: I’m quitting my job. I no longer feel the need to be held hostage by a job holding the sword of my paycheck over my head. During this time away from work – which has involved advocating for…

Chaos Theory
Jeff Goldblum, you’ve done it again. Boy did I get a lesson in unpredictability today… Apparently, I got a flat at AMC yesterday. A flat for watching a mid movie. A flat which I had no spare for – come to find out when help arrived and there was no spare. *screams into a pillow*…

Let me tell you…
I am on a journey. This really has been a journey. They are first-world problems I suppose, but man has it been challenging. Yes, I’m talking about my mental health break/FMLA from work. I’m still standing outside of myself in awe because I asked for this. No, claimed it. As I struggle here – because…

July Self-Love Letter
Reclaim your power. Our world is tangled in red tape, but we, must find a way to curl it into a ball and throw it at someone’s face.πIt’s not easy being the living amongst the dead, but you have to stand in power. Speak with agency. Explode like yesterday’s fireworks ο into the sky. For…

But I can’t do this all on my own..
Things at work have become…worse. Yesterday I had a panic attack when my therapist asked me what was wrong. I opened my mouth to regurgitate the same information I’ve shared with whoever I thought could help me, but the words wouldn’t come out. Completely lucid, I couldn’t speak as my body shut down and I…
