You're Burnt Out Because You Keep Pouring From a Cup You Won't Refill

You know that friend who somehow becomes the unpaid therapist, emergency contact, life coach, babysitter, relationship counselor, and occasionally an emotional support raccoon for everybody around them? Hi. It’s us. Somewhere between “I got you” and “don’t worry about it,” we accidently turned ourselves into a one-woman customer service hotline for everyone else’s chaos. Then we sit in our cars…

Bipolar Brain, Half-Finished Hobbies, and the Blog I Ghosted

Hey friend. Yes, I know. I disappeared. Again. If you’ve been checking for new posts and thinking, “Did this girl abandon the blog already?” the answer is… sort of. But not in the dramatic “burn it all down and disappear into the woods” way. More like the classic bipolar way: I got really excited about something else, ran full speed into it, and forgot this existed for a few weeks. Welcome to…
