It’s bedtime. My body’s tired. My brain? Throwing a rave. And I keep asking myself: why do I overthink at night when all I want is sleep? Why do I overthink at night?I ask myself that almost every time I try to sleep. The lights are off, I’m ready to rest but suddenly, my brain…
Stepping back from social media changed everything for me. From over-sharing to living quietly, here’s why I stopped posting as much, and why it feels so good. There was a time when I’d post almost everything, my coffee, my workouts, random thoughts, even the view from my commute. Every story, every post, felt like part…
Not broke, but not ballin’ either. Let’s be real for a second: I’m not struggling to survive, but I’m also not out here living like a baller. I’m somewhere in that weird middle ground, bills are paid, fridge has food, but sometimes I look at my bank account and think, “That’s it?” And I know…
Romanticizing life on a budget is something we all do without realizing it. Life doesn’t always come with big wins or expensive upgrades, but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy it.

One day, I saw this quote: “You suffer more in imagination than in reality.” And I was like… yep. That’s me overthinking everything at 2 a.m. So I looked it up. Turns out, it’s from a guy named Seneca, a Stoic philosopher. That was the start of me getting into Stoicism in everyday life. Not…

While others are sprinting, lifting, jumping, and tracking every calorie, I’m out here doing what I’ve done for years, walking. No bells and whistles, no complicated…
Is it really about passive income, or just another aesthetic hustle? The TikTok affiliate lifestyle is everywhere, and it’s hard to ignore. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve seen “TikTok Affiliate” on my feed, always paired with shopping hauls, whispered must-haves, or someone casually linking their “Lazada finds” in the comments. From car…
It’s not always the big things. Sometimes, it’s the little habits slowly killing me that I’ve ignored for way too long. This isn’t a lecture. This is me being honest about the things I’ve been doing that are slowly messing with my health, energy, and peace of mind, and I know I’m not the only…
Coffee hopping has always been our way of bonding. While other families might celebrate with big dinners or packed parties, ours has always leaned toward the simple and quiet. A good café, peaceful surroundings, and something warm to sip on, that’s more than enough for me and my parents. We’re not the type to throw…
