Dream Big, Start Small, Move Fast
When Mia was eight years old, she found a rusted step ladder tucked behind coats in her grandmother’s hallway closet. It wasn’t anything special—just a small, folding ladder with peeling paint and a bent hinge. But to Mia, it looked like treasure.

You Already Have What It Takes—Now Use It
There was a time I thought I needed more. More talent. More money. More connections. More of everything I didn't already have. I spent years chasing approval and perfection, constantly believing I wasn’t “there” yet. But then one day, something simple—almost embarrassingly simple—changed everything.

How to Beat Writer’s Block When It Hits Hard
It was 2:17 a.m., and I was staring at a blank screen—again. The blinking cursor pulsed like a heartbeat, steady and silent, almost mocking.

I used to wear multitasking like a badge of honor. I thought it made me efficient, sharp, and productive. I would juggle answering emails while eating breakfast, half-listening to podcasts while working on reports, and texting during conversations with friends or family. I felt busy all the time.

Quieting the Storm: The Mental Model That Helped Me Stop Overthinking
Overthinking has been my most loyal — and exhausting — companion for as long as I can remember. It sneaks in quietly, disguised as “being prepared” or “being thorough.” But before I know it, I’ve spiraled down rabbit holes of endless scenarios, what-ifs, and worst-case possibilities.
