I’m always trying new things, meeting new people, trying to be at my best in my social and work life … be my best as a creative is hard … impostor syndrome, competition and also all the things I want to do aside designing … Art , my art and also get to know artists. I know I have to mingle and be present with the art world sometimes I dont like it. So Mixing every aspect in life is hard, challenging but also fun haha
I want to do so many things! They range from big things, like finally meeting with a mortgage/loan officer to make (financial) plans to buy a house, to (seemingly) small things like cleaning off my desk. On one hand I feel like it’s hard to just START, and I’m the other hand I feel like I’m running out of time?
There are so many things I want to do, many of which are unfortunately not feasible right now because I’m struggling financially. Something I’ve wanted to do for years is share what I’ve been through both to help others and spread awareness about topics that are often stigmatized, misunderstood and sometimes just flat out ignored. Knowing I am not alone has been crucial for me to overcome obstacles in my life and I want to be able to do that for others. Yet, as passionate as I am, I always manage to talk myself out of it. It used to be that I was scared to talk about it...ashamed and worried I’d be judged. I’m over that now but find other excuses, mainly “who am I to make a difference?”. I want to stop standing in my own way.
