Hi All, I'm deeply grateful to be part of this community.

I'm a journalism student trying to build a portfolio for the harrowing world of work. So for this, I started a substack. I write about issues and conversations I feel deserve more nuance. 'Feel' being the world that describes the bodily experience of writing, not from a moral superiority point of view.

I sincerely invite you to subscribe to my Substack, the link below will direct to one of my essays. Your support will be invaluable in this journey. Rest assured, all content is freely accessible.

Thank you for being a part of my growth and aspirations.

I just started a life and mindset coaching business to help overthinkers of color stop being ruled by their harsh inner critic & reduce their anxiety so they can finally take intentional action towards the life of their dreams.

The focus of my platform is self-compassion. I help my clients turn their inner critic into a compassionate inner coach. When we have compassion for ourselves, that compassion naturally flows out to the other beings around us. So many of our problems in society are due to systemic individualization, which by its very nature is devoid of compassion.

They need us discompassionate to perpetuate homelessness.

They need us discompassionate to perpetuate poverty.

They need us discompassionate to perpetuate the exploitation this system is built on and fueled by.

Compassionate people move society forward. I want to help more people discover self-compassion, the mental and emotional environment self-compassion creates, and compassion for others by proxy.

Society teaches us to compete and dominate each other. I want to help people recognize another way forward through assisting & uplifting each other. πŸ’š
