Whatever came to mind…
YOU said it, not me.🫢

You’ve been waiting for a sign, clarity, or permission.
But deep down, you already know what needs to shift.
This is not about “figuring it out.”
It’s about finally listening to what you’ve been avoiding.
it’s about trusting what you already know—and doing something with it.

Be honest… what did you hear me say? 🤔

I know what side of history I want to be on. My privilege and platform has no worth if I do not use it for those that don’t have either.

The messy middle is loud right now.

That space between clarity and chaos.
Between knowing something needs to shift and not knowing exactly how.

Nobody talks about this part.
Not enough, anyway.
So I am.

I’ve been afraid that struggling would make me look less legit.
That not having it all figured out would somehow disqualify me.
But hiding it has cost more than sharing ever could.

Part 2 is up now. Come sit with me there.
