A Re-Education of Self

WELCOME

Inner Musings is a collection of things I’m exploring. Creatively, personality, and everything in between. A space where I can follow ideas as they unfold, reconnect with things I’ve always loved, and learn what it means to create in a way that feels honest.

It’s been eight weeks since I quit my job, and I’m still finding it hard to let go and trust, which was the entire point of this whole explosive decision. I knew jumping straight into a new life and a new way of thinking wasn’t going to be as easy as snapping my fingers, especially given what I had on my plate the weeks following my career departure. Still, I hadn’t planned for the feelings I would encounter at this point in the journey. 

When it comes to reading, some of us are drawn to fiction writings of far-off places or mythical adventures. Others may like to get lost in a murder mystery or a romance novel that lets them escape everyday life. However, I have come to realize that I prefer non-fiction writing.

Getting To Know

Myself

I never really loved school. I was fine at it and did “well enough,” but I was never passionate about learning the way some people are.

Creative Outlets I’m Exploring For My Younger Self

When I was a child, I wanted to be everything. An artist, a dancer, a model, a photographer, the list went on and on, expanding as quickly as my imagination allowed.

A weekend van trip to Tucson felt long overdue. After six years of living in Phoenix, I had somehow never made my way to our southern neighbor.

We booked a parking space near historic downtown for the weekend, planning our visit around the Tucson Folk Festival. It was an ideal setup—everything within walking distance: good coffee, great food, a handful of shops, and the steady soundtrack of live music drifting through the streets.
