Mika! First of all, I'm wishing you an amazing time on your solo trip! You deserve it. Also, I just love how you must have been reading my journal because I've been writing, and thinking, a lot about my healing journey lol and damn near everything you mentioned here is so spot on! I screamed with the Tamia / stranger part lol but this was a great read. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much! I promise ima stop touching your journal lol but healing def isn’t all sunshine and rainbows fr. I’m happy you got a kick out of yet another random music reference. There’s plenty more of that to come.
I felt this entire post so bad. I've been isolated since June 1st, the day I decided to fully hone in and be my own "mirror bitch" and nearly four months later, its done me a great service, but I spend so much time alone now. A process of grief and renewal, it has driven me crazy before, but it's so worth it. A game of limbo where the only direction is forward fr.
Heavy on the "only direction is forward". I'm happy that tapping into your inner "mirror bitch" is helping you in the way it needs to, even if the journey can feel lonely at times.
I've been telling myself that I rather be "alone" than to have a place, person or thing that doesn't add value to my life take me down.
This was really raw, honest, and beautiful. Thank you for sharing, I know so many people who can relate to this uncomfortable space you describe with such vivid detail.
If this post resonated with you, consider supporting my work by buying me a coffee (or a martini)? 🍸☕️

I feel so on fire all the time, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. Thank you for putting that into words.
You’re so welcome! Definitely wouldn’t trade it. So worth it in the end.
Beautiful writing and eloquent words. So timely with my current season also
thank you so much! Wishing you the best in your current season and beyond ❤️

Loved reading this! I totally resonate how healing can be so self isolating. It’s like a limbo version unsettled in which direction to turn.
It’s exactly that but at the end of the day worth it—priceless even. So happy to hear this resonated with you!
Beautiful, as always. Thank you for this!
I appreciate your kind words. Thanks for reading!

Thank you, Jayde. That means a lot to me and is precisely why I had to push past to write it!
