I can see why I find your writing relatable, you write from having gone through life & its ups and downs. Survived to tell your story. Glad you're here Carissa.

So happy I somehow I don’t remember, I found you during the end of the pandemic. Congratulations on everything you have achieved! I love your Substack and I love your art. Quite frankly, I admire you in so many ways, and I see my future successful self as someone like you. I relate with the things you write so much and although I haven’t had the chance to digest absolutely everything, if there’s something I don’t let behind is to read all your newsletters and posts here. Somehow you actually always “come to me” with words of wisdom and reminders when I most need them.

Yaaay to Stephanie! Makes me smile we share the same name 😊 I’m that kind of person that thinks “that’s a sign of the universe”

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 to both of you

So happy you launched on Substack. Your writing and drawings have helped me so much to articulate what I’m feeling - and to feel less alone in this human experience 💗

reading your person essays is my favorite thing, feels like reading a diary, intimate and personal, while also being very well written and thought provoking
