Oh, high school! How times have gone by. Some people say that the 4 years you spend in high school tend to be the most formative years of your life — 4 years where you crumble under the workload of AP classes, do pointless extracurriculars for your CV, crush on the senior boys, cry when

When I was younger, I had this idyllic vision of what I thought adulthood looked like. And at the crux of that imaginative world was that the protagonist (a poised, confident and emotionally well-adjusted young woman) lived a life of thriving relationships. She had a group of girlfriends who never let her down and appeared

Recently, I visited a Senior Living home to have lunch with my grandma. While we were looking over the menu, an old man sat down with a young couple at the table behind us. When the waiter handed them the menus, the old man lit up. “I’ve been looking forward to this all week, ever

Hey Alexa, can you get my life together? You always hear about a midlife crisis, but what about a quarter-life crisis? So many of us are going through these today, and it’s not so talked about. But being in your twenties is scary. We’re such messes. We’re trying to figure out who we are. What

As I sat down to write this, I heard footsteps in the hallway echoing near my apartment door. As they got closer, so did the familiar melody we all could never forget, even if we tried. It was the infamous “Don’t Stop Believing” by Journey. The question is, when did we stop? When did we stop believing

Dear God, I may not understand everything that’s happening in my life right now, but I’m choosing to hold on to the fact that everything has a purpose. I may be overwhelmed with questions as to why certain things are happening in my life, but my faith is not dependent on my feelings. This season

“Happiness isn’t an external state of being you need to find, it’s an inseparable part of who you truly are. To be happy, choose happiness.” – Antasha Durbin Your beliefs impact every facet of your life, from the thoughts you think to the feelings you feel to the actions you do or don’t take. When you

I hope you take the time to feel the backwash on your feet when it leaves the shore. I hope you say yes to new opportunities, even when you are scared of the unknown. Especially when you are scared of the unknown. I hope that one bad relationship doesn’t deter you from experiencing a new

My current life mantra is “Fuck it, I’m doing it anyway.” What I mean is, when I’m faced with a situation where I worry about what people will think or am scared of the outcome, I instantly do it. Instead of letting fear hold me back, I use it as my biggest motivator at that moment.

If you’re feeling unproductive lately, take this life advice from Ask Reddit. 1. You are younger today than you ever will be again. 2. A lot of regrets come from the fact that hindsight is 20/20: you have no idea how much you missed out on in the moment. You think about it after the fact.

I am slowly learning how to come to terms with change. How to face the unknown with courage and grace, instead of fear. It’s been a long battle, trying to fight the deep, debilitating uneasiness that fills me at the prospect of change. It’s been one I’ve been fighting for as long as I can

I want to remind you that you are allowed to feel. You are not too much. You are not a burden. Although we should be mindful about the way we are lashing out at others in the midst of our venting, we should not be apologising for feeling the way that we feel. We should

For a long time on my journey of spiritual awakening and ascension, I kept to myself. I didn’t express myself to others out in the open and I maintained a quiet spiritual practice. I was not incorporating the lessons I had learned in my real world existence, and it was causing a lot of inner

Starting over isn’t easy. We hold on to things because they are familiar. Sometimes it’s all we know. We struggle to let go of relationships, friendships, jobs, and places. It’s hard to say goodbye to the life we know. But sometimes it’s worth it. Sometimes starting over is our only option. Sometimes it is the

Life is a rollercoaster of highs and lows. Sometimes we feel amazing. Sometimes we feel lost and sad. Buddha famously taught that life is largely suffering, something which feels all too true at times. Latest statistics suggest that in the past year, 74% of adults in the UK felt stressed to the point of being overwhelmed

We all have insecurities — those we own, and those we pretend don’t exist. They come and go as we grow, and we never quite escape them. We learn to manage them, but they never truly go away. And in the dark moments of our life, when things are uncertain, when we feel lost, when we

I am changing, but not for the reasons you would think. You see, I’m not changing for society or because someone thinks I need to. I’ve just come to the decision that I am done changing who I am to please someone else. Gone are the days of constantly worrying about what everyone else thinks.

In college, I was the student who had to work and study in a conference room or library. Today, I write most of my content in coffee shops or creative work spaces. Basically, I need a controlled environment to get work done. So when my current 9 to 5 became 100% work from home, I felt

Chaos struck my life in the span of a month. I lost loved ones, discontinued childhood friendships, moved back in with my parents, left my job, and got diagnosed with HPV. I anticipated feeling grief, defeat, anger, and overwhelming anxiety. I anticipated developing a victim’s mentality. Instead, I decided to turn the page and focus

You Don’t See The Truth The most common and self-destructive way to hold yourself back is by avoiding the truth. The truth is you do not know what you want, and you are too scared to figure out what that could be. You may like feeling safe, and you are too anxious to explore anything

The beginning of a self-transformation requires action, but the end of it requires something deeper, something harder, something you’ve probably never realized before. While doing more will almost always generate results, there’s an untapped, life-changing magic in doing less. Sometimes, your problems don’t come from what you’re not doing, they come from what you can’t stop doing. To really

The relationship between dreaming and success is a complicated one. On the one hand, without dreams, you are unlikely to seek new things for your life. On the other hand, being a dreamer can keep you in the world of one day. An optimist, but one who struggles to actually make their dreams a reality.

The term #self-care gets thrown around a lot these days. It has become a pretty trendy idea, a buzzword if you will, especially given the impact this concept has had on the wellness industry. The consumer side of self-care has many of us convinced that self-care equals regular spa days, wine in the bathtub, expensive

Detaching yourself from toxic people does not necessarily involve big, dramatic, swooping statements accompanied by tantrums and tears. Detaching yourself can be in the way you contact each other less. Detaching yourself can be in the amount of words you exchange. Detaching yourself can be seen in the quality of conversations you exchange. Detaching yourself

After a traumatic and disempowering childhood, much of my life’s work has been about building a healthy and empowered sense of self. Not a narcissistic sense of self, but one that is rooted in a healthy ego and a recognition of the great possibilities that live within each of us. I believe that every one
