the art of growing up, ch 13 💌 there are soooooo the art of growing up, ch 13 💌 

there are soooooo many times i just want to skip to the end — when watching a show, reading a book, making a video, and on and on. but!! i’m learning to pause and take a note from my younger self. 🫂 because the most rewarding aspect is often through the experience of it rather than the end result. 🕺

cringe is an unavoidable and without it there is no discomfort, discovery, or development. 🙂‍↔️ so yes, allllll the cringe-y moments as a teenager helped create who you are now (in the best way!).

if there’s something out there that you’re holding back on in fear of cringe, let this be your true reminder to embrace cringe!!! 🫂💗

whenever an irl friend mentioned that they saw ✨this✨ space, i’d want you to hideeee… but i’m trying to take a note from my childhood self and embrace being seen. 🫂 

letting yourself be seen can be terrifying because of potential judgement, but it is also so so rewarding! this space is an example of it; i’ve made so many life long friends and grew into myself beyond imagination. and it was only possible because i allowed myself to be subject to embarrassment that i found connection. :”)

so let this be your sign to put yourself out there and be seen 🙂‍↕️🌷✨💞
