Today's drop is raw, honest, and a little bit rebellious.  We’re talking about what it really means to become the villain in someone else’s story and why that might be the bravest move you ever make for your mental health. 

I open up about quietly leaving the group chat, gently saying my piece, and after 20 days of silence… choosing to unfollow on social media. Not to punish. Not to make a scene. But simply to breathe again.  When that silence turned to hostility, I made one more boundary call: block. Because sometimes, your peace is worth more than being understood. 

We’ll dive into guilt, grief, and that heavy fear of being misunderstood… and why at the end of the day, your healing doesn’t have to look pretty to anyone else.  Because your story deserves a main character who isn’t afraid to look like the villain if it means finally choosing herself. 

Grab your coffee, pull up a cozy blanket, and let’s talk about it.
