Seventeen Years Later

Seventeen years. That’s how long this blog has been a part of my life. It quietly turned 17 on May 1, and I’ve been sitting with that number, letting it soak in.

Seventeen years ago, I started this blog not knowing exactly where it would take me. I just knew I needed a space to express myself, to feel seen, to connect. Back then, it was a little corner of the internet where I could be honest. Now, it’s become something much bigger. A witness to my growth, my heartbreaks, my little victories, and my many evolutions.

And just recently, I did something I’ve never done before. I had my first aerial show in Los Angeles. It was emotional, exhilarating, and deeply personal. For someone who’s always had their head in the clouds, being suspended midair in front of an audience was a surreal reflection of all the inner work I’ve been doing.

That night meant so much to me. Not just because it was my first show here, but because it came at a time when I was rebuilding parts of myself. A lot has shifted in my life lately. I’ve been learning to let go, to trust, to take up space. And to fly, both onstage and in my own story.

To everyone who came to the show, thank you. Your presence meant more than I can express. And to those who couldn’t make it but sent messages, encouragement, or love from afar, I felt you with me. I carried that support on stage.

Seventeen years of writing. Of living. Of becoming.

Here’s to staying soft, staying bold, and staying in flight even when the ground feels safer.

Thank you for being part of my journey.
