When Growth Feels Like Grief
Growth is often painted as a glowing transformation—a journey of becoming. But what we don’t talk about enough is the quiet heartbreak that can come with it.

This blog invites you to reframe those quieter moments not as falling off track, but as part of the natural rhythm of being human. Let’s dismantle the guilt and honour the ebb and flow.

But true healing didn’t begin until I stopped performing and started telling the truth. Not just to others—but to myself.
