This is the topic I've been sitting on for a long time, and I'm excited to share it with you.
Everything I do stems from my desire for authenticity. Looking back on my early teenage years, I remember my social anxiety led me to understand others, which eventually inspired me to understand myself.

Today, I'm giving myself self-therapy and diving into a vulnerable place. A visitor from the past left me in pain and sorrow, and at the same time, reminded me of how far I've come in my personal growth and what I donāt want in life moving forward.

Itās wild how much Iāve grown just in the past few years, especially since 2021.
A friend recently said to me, āFa, I donāt know anyone whoās done more work on themselves than you have internally and externally.ā The old me would have been too dismissive to receive that statement. Now, I own it.
Itās true. Iāve done an unbelievable amount of work to update and elevate myself. All with intention. I carried and was projected so much fucking baggage and karma from the previous generations, family members, and many people I crossed paths with. Every time the universe threw me a challenge, I gave it all of myself and faced it head-on.
I want to recognize and celebrate this feeling. The ease and peace I feel without needing much. The kind of confidence that comes from tapping into authenticity. My boundaries are stronger than ever. The love I feel for myself and others is unmatched. Iām glowing from within.
Iām excited for whatās about to come. I have this inexplicable hunch that miracles will happen to me. And when they do, I wonāt be surprised.
A girlfriend is planning to freeze her eggs. The topic got me thinking, do I want to do that? Do I want kids? As I decondition my learned and outdated beliefs, I'm learning what I want as a woman.
Today, I share a story about a hike I went on with a friend who overtalked. The discomfort I felt pushed me to kick the fear of setting boundaries. The result? Surprisingly pleasant.
I will entertain you
Heal you
And bite you at times
I wrote and shared this little poem last summer. Lately, Iāve been reminded of the idea behind it in many moments. I feel I embody such a cat in real life. A cat that is adored in a community. I was doodling last night and drew this cat with a butt. So I thought, why not share the poem again?
