It’s funny the one descriptor I always seem to hear people say about me sounds something like this. “She is so determined. She has it all figured out. Juggling medical school, living on her own, running a business, and being present in so many extracurriculars–like how?” I almost forget what the outside sees. What’s happeningContinue reading “Just under the surface”

New chapter and things
Yesterday was my last day here. A job that has become a part of me for the past 8 years. One in which I was challenged again and again, through and through. In every aspect of my role, I was met with discomfort, but growth awaited me on the other side. For the first yearContinue reading “New chapter and things”
Loving yourself first
When you look at us, what do you see?⠀⠀I know I don’t talk about my fiancé a lot partly because he likes to keep his private life private but I’d l rather like to keep him all to myself anyway 🥰⠀⠀Before we met, we had gone through the ringer with separate people.

Underlying skin
These past few weeks have been hard for me. Not so much so for the stress that comes from working with sick people.Staying on top of the health of others comes natural to me.

Imagining the world as it can be and seeing it as it isContinue reading “The systemic loop that is now.”
Lazy and the false implications behind it
This morning my day started at 10 AM. I never thought anything about this time, honestly it was before 12 PM so thought I was doing just fine. Yes my goal is and still continues to be for even earlier more like, 5-7 AM. It’s been a goal of mine for a long time andContinue reading “Lazy and the false implications behind it”
The broken bits
This past week, I went back to work at my pharmacy for the weekend. It’s something that felt so familiar, like muscle memory, riding a bike, nothing had changed. I clocked in, put my coffee on the counter and went to print my credentials. The day started like always, chaotic at best. From the momentContinue reading “The broken bits”
Beauty at its finest.
It took me a long time to truly be happy with this face of mine. It’s not like I ever thought it needed to be hidden away from the world in a tall tower or in a paper bag or anything but it was just this lingering uneasiness about it. I felt it randomly butContinue reading “Beauty at its finest.”
