What area of your life could benefit from more attention this weekend?

As the week winds down and the weekend approaches, let’s take a moment to think about which part of our lives could use a little extra time, space, care, focus, or consideration. Maybe it’s your relationships or routines, your priorities or goals, your finances, work-life balance, physical or mental health — or perhaps your spirituality. Whatever it may be, allow it to take center stage in the days ahead. 🌷

What area of your life is calling for more attention right now?

Who or what has had the biggest impact in helping you manage, understand, or navigate your mental health?

Finding community, credible resources, and the right health care professionals to support your mental health can take time and patience—but when you find what genuinely resonates and supports you, it can be life-changing.

For me, discovering The Mighty back in 2016, right after I graduated college, and connecting with NAMI-NYC in 2019—the same year I found the courage to seek professional help for my symptoms—really changed my life. My blog and passion for creativity, along with being brave enough to talk openly with my family, have also helped me stay on the path that’s best for me.

Although I’ve had to grow a lot on my own and face some of my darkest moments to learn to love myself, knowing where to go and who to talk to when things felt overwhelming completely changed how I approached the hardest parts of my recovery.

What has had the most impact on you as you manage your mental health and symptoms?

How long does it take you to recover from a busy day?

When you live with a chronic health condition, recovery time is important — especially when your spoons were limited to begin with and your body needs time and space to recharge.

What activities drain your energy the most? How long does it take your body to recover? What does your spoon calculator look like after a busy day?

How to protect your inner peace in a chaotic world

The hardest part of being human isn’t surviving pain, it’s staying kind and open-hearted while you do.

When you witness cruelty, injustice, or ignorance, your mind wants to fight, to fix, to carry it all.

But if you let that weight settle inside you, it will dim your light.

Staying peaceful in a world that often isn’t doesn’t mean ignoring what’s wrong. It means learning to meet it with awareness instead of anger. To act from clarity, not chaos.

You don’t heal the world by letting it break you. You heal it by becoming the calm within it; the light that doesn’t go out.

What helps you stay grounded when everything feels too heavy?

Also, if you're going through a tough time right now, I want you to know that I post daily mental health videos about how to deal with painful thoughts. So if you or anyone you know is struggling and wants help, click on one of the links below or write me if you have any questions you want me to answer:
