Today, I found something I was expecting for a long time. 

While I was brushing my teeth, I saw something look a little different in my hair. My sister had braided my hair over Christmas. And right in the center of one of the braids, was a tiny, single grey...

Yesterday I went back to listen to Malcom Gladwell's masterclass.

It is amazing how everything the man says sticks with you. He always makes his point with interesting stories. And yet, I feel like I need to go back and revisit the lectures a few times due to the magnitude of...

I was wrapping gifts with my mom earlier today. 

We decided a while back that we-the adults will not exchange gifts for Christmas. It wasn't something we grew up with so we mutually decided not to start. But the kids, they get gifts. From all of us. 

So while we...

I made my debut on Instagram yesterday. 

It took me a week to gather the courage.
And I ended up posting one of my early posts about my sister from 200 words a day. 

Everything about social media feels wrong. After years of managing to stay away from most of them,...

How my Twitter profile makes $5,000/month:
600,000 Twitter profile visits/month
6,000 clicks on my ‘link in bio’
3,000 clicks on my website
2,500 of which are on my...

I am starting to think about my online presence. Outside of these writing platforms, I don't exist. 

Even the various business ideas I executed on, I used a pseudo name. I still feel like privacy is sacred. But having no presence isn't going to work if I am going to...

13 days left. 

This year is almost done.
I can't decide if I hate or love 2021.
So much has happened. A lot of it so extreme. Things I will not forget in a long time.
