Thank you for this beautiful, vulnerable insight into your inner world. I am now inspired to review media on my Substack too. I relate to your section about hobbies, I am also a chronic hobby starter and quitter. I have been trying to let them come and go whenever they’re ready, like seasons—they typically return to me eventually. I hope to join you in your journey of feeling beautiful again. Desirability is something I’ve struggled with for my entire life, and I’ve only started to feel beautiful recently. You are glowing in my eyes, and I hope you’re able to see the same soon! 🩷

your response was so lovely to read. Cheers to hobby quitting -hobby burn out is serious.

desirability ain’t no hoe, since birthing I’ve become a different person. mothering has aged me, physically and mentally. perhaps I am just craving feeling youthful again? strange bc I’m only 25.

all that to say, just read your recent substack, so fun and stunning. also you are so stunning & don’t forget it! 🤍

Of course!!! And likewise on so many things. We met this Saturday at the Conjure event, I’m not sure if you remember since we were both intoxicated 😂 I look forward to seeing you around more and hoped joining you in oil painting 💕
